The article reports a significant increase in the prices of durian and mangosteen fruits, with mangosteen reaching record highs due to increased importation from Thailand and decreased domestic production. Despite the high prices, the quality of the fruit has improved this year. The retail price of mangosteen has surpassed that of durian in many areas, leading to limited sales and high market demand, which is expected to keep prices high during the peak export season from Thailand to China, which runs from May to July.
