The highlight of the trip was a visit to the local
durian farm, where students had the unique opportunity to learn about
tropical fruit trees and, most importantly, indulge in Malaysia’s beloved
“King of Fruits”— the durian. The students were treated to different types
of durians, namely Durian D24 and Musang King, allowing them to experience
the wide spectrum of flavours and savour them.
