What's Trending: RM100 for a sack of durians?! How much is too much?

Episode notes

Imagine being handed a giant sack and told: "Fill it with as many durians as you can for RM100." That's exactly what's happening in Malaysia, where a bumper harvest has triggered a full-blown "durian tsunami", sending prices crashing to some of the lowest levels in years. On What's Trending, Hongbin Jeong and Nadiah Koh dive into the viral videos of shoppers hauling away overflowing sacks of durians, unpack why durian prices have collapsed across Malaysia, and ask whether Singaporeans will see similar bargains. Plus, they look at a Tampines stall that's giving away up to 1,000kg of free durians every day. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
