In Singapore, one kilogram of Musang King is now going for as low as S$15 (RM48) to $16 (RM51).
Durian sellers that The Straits Times spoke to said that a spike in supplies from Malaysian plantations in Pahang, Johor and Genting Highlands contributed to an excess of durians, pulling the prices down.

“There are Musang King durians that are sold for $9 per kg, but they’re the really small ones,” he said.
