PETALING JAYA: Johor Regent Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim (TMJ) fired a salvo at Malaysian Football League (MFL) for not sticking to their guns in penalising Selangor for withdrawing from last month's Charity Shield match against Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT).

In Malaysia, the interest level in the term “durian” was at 16 on May 12.Malaysian Fruit Farmers Association president Datuk Lawrence Ting Siew Haw said the spike in online searches for durians coincided with the durian season from June to August in Malaysia.“People seek to purchase and enjoy the fruit when it is most abundant and fresh,” he said.
“So, while Asians love durian, Westerners are starting to accept and appreciate the fruit,” said Dr Tan, who heads the company which deals with farming and exporting durian.Apart from the word “durian”, online users from various countries also searched for related terms. Agreeing, Ting said the hot and uncertain weather has significantly affected durian yield and even quality this year.
The high temperatures earlier this year also caused the “burnt tip” phenomenon, where the durian flesh turns dark brown due to uneven fruit ripening. A total of 553,348 tonnes of pineapple were harvested last year, followed by 471,672 tonnes of durian. It leads the basket of fruits by a mile – the total net income from durian came up to RM16.25mil, according to data in 2022.
