KOTA KINABALU: A Musang King durian in Raub, Pahang, has fetched RM185,000 per fruit, making it one of the most expensive durians in the world.

Pahang Communication and Multimedia, Youth, Sport and Non-Governmental Bodies Executive Committee Chairman Fadzli Mohamad Kamal, through a Facebook post, said the price of the durian started at RM2,000 at a fund-raising event on Sunday.

He said the price soared after several bids were made, and Huang Qi Wen made the winning bid.
