Jack Ma makes it impossible for Thais to eat durian?

Jack Ma visited Thailand for the first time last week and was received by the Thai government as a state guest. The Thai government regards Jack Ma as the god of wealth, and indeed, he not only promised to invest heavily in Thailand, but also sold 80,000 durians for Thailand in one minute, giving face to the Thai government, which received him in a high standard. However, Thai people who are addicted to durian have contributed to the newspaper to complain: "Oh, no, like Malaysians, we can't afford to eat our own durian."

The durian production season in Thailand and Malaysia officially began in April, and Facebook and IG often see pictures of the whole family sucking fingers and eating durian. However, Malaysians have to spend a lot more money than before to enjoy such a scene in recent years, and Thais will have to pay a higher price in the future in order to get a quick pomegranate.

During Jack Ma's visit to Thailand on the 19th, the reception specifications given by the Thai government are as good as those of foreign heads of state. First of all, Deputy Prime Minister Songqi greeted him out of the car at the gate of the Prime Minister's Office, and Prime Minister Prayuth took a group photo with Jack Ma warmly in the main hall where he received foreign guests.

Ma Yun responded by signing a series of agreements with the Thai government. these include selling 3 billion yuan of Thai gold pillow durian for Thailand within three years, investing in intelligent logistics systems in Thailand, training digital talents in Thailand, and opening an official flagship store of fragrant rice in Tmall.

In order to show his strength, two days before Jack Ma set foot in Thailand, 80, 000 Thai durians were snapped up within one minute of Tmall, which shocked the whole of Thailand.

Thai durian from picking to customs clearance, take the Kunman Highway to Yunnan and then sent to all parts of the mainland, fresh direct delivery, the whole process takes only 120 hours.

Many fruits from Thailand are growing at double-digit growth rates on the mainland every year, and now even more blessed by Jack Ma, fruit farmers can't help laughing. However, a member of the public contributed to Thailand's Thairath Daily on the 20th, expressing the aspirations of many Thai people. The letter warns that Thailand will be careful to become the same as Malaysia, where the price of durian has soared to such an extent that Thailand's own people cannot afford it because Chinese consumers are scrambling for it.

The famous Elvis durian in Malaysia is small, strong-smelling, yellow, soft, bitter and sweet. Thai durian is large, yellowish in color and tastes refreshing. When Malaysians meet Thais, they always argue about whose durian is delicious.

A few years ago, Malaysian durian was popular with mainland consumers after it was allowed to export to China, which made Elvis exports to the mainland more than sixfold in six years, and prices soared. In recent years, tourists from China and Hong Kong often organize groups to eat durian in the producing areas. Coupled with the production of durian moon cakes and the export of various related foods, various regions have to "compete" for quality durian such as Elvis Presley. As demand exceeds supply, prices continue to rise.

Malaysian Prime Minister Najib once said publicly that Elvis Presley was able to export to China, which brought huge profits for Elvis Presley operators.

However, Malaysia complains about the soaring price of Elvis Presley, and points out that in recent years, mainland consortia have purchased Elvis Orchard at high prices, from planting, picking, processing and export to China's "through-train" operation. Malaysia complains that its people can hardly buy or afford durian.

"Elvis Presley has long been so expensive that it hurts when we ordinary people eat it," points out Huang Lingqiu, a resident of Johor. She still remembers that a few years ago, a kilo of Elvis Presley was only about 20 ringgit per kilogram. But now, "A-class Elvis King of labor has reached a maximum of 85 MYR, and it costs more than 100 MYR to eat one."

Elvis Presley skyrocketed, and Singaporeans next door complained bitterly. Elvis Presley's price in Singapore rose from 18 to 20 star dollars a kilogram to an all-time high of 50 star dollars. "I have never seen such a high market in 50 years," a durian wholesaler was quoted by the Straits Times as saying.

Thai people who contributed to the newspaper pointed out that the export of materials for people's livelihood should adhere to the concept and policy of "self-sufficient economy" pursued by the late King Bhumibol in his life, and give priority to the needs of the domestic people.
