China buys most of the world’s durian exports, a surge spurred over the past decade by social media and growing trade ties with durian-producing countries.
Both locals and Chinese are seeking to expand the booming durian industry across Southeast Asia.
But the prospect of high profits has also ignited tensions, resulting in land disputes and environmental concerns.
101 East investigates China’s durian obsession.
