Last Saturday, HRH Raja Perempuan Kelantan sent her adopted children from the Sekolah Sri Harapan of Pengkalan Chepa to visit the Gaharu’s site near Dewan Beta, Kelantan. To be precise, Gaharu is actually the name of the product that produced by the Depu Tree or some would prefer to call it Karas Tree. Gaharu can be make into 59 products to date which includes the most popular used as perfume, air freshener, beads, soap, shampoo, spa massage’s oil and artifacts. According to local scientist and researcher, Dr Rasol Awang of Malaysian Nuclear Agency (MINT), currently the world production of Gaharu can only cater to 20% of the worldwide market.
Creating awareness for the youngs
The Tuanku’s adopted children visited the area where Agarwood Industry (Kelantan) Sdn Bhd has used as test site where the Depu trees were being inoculated to produce the Gaharu.

The visit was coordinated by representatives of The Forestry Department and Mr. Wan Omar from Menteri Besar Corporation. For more details of the Gaharu, readers can get in touch with the Secretariat of “Skim Galakan Tanaman Pokok Karas Di Negeri Kelantan” at,

Dr Pheraphan’s work of art
The wild Depu’s trees grew largely in the jungles. The most interesting facts that I found was that, mostly up to today, the Depu’s tree that Agarwood Industry identified, belongs to the poor people. It is simply because when the rich cleared their piece of land, they can afford to cut down the once non-valuable tree. However, the trees are so thick and tall; it will cost the poor a fortune to cut it down.
Today, Agarwood Industry has taken over the management of the wild tree from the poor by paying some sum of money. The revenue that Agarwood makes from the tree is going to be shared with the owner of the land.
Agarwood Industry (Kelantan) Sdn Bhd ready to serve you
You can grow up to 400 trees in every acre of land. After five years we can start the inoculating process of the tree, and beginning from that you can start to harvest the tree for every tree months until it die a natural death and created the core inside it. The core is known to be very expensive and can be priced from few hundred ringgit to tens of thousands per kilogramme.

In Thailand, planters sell one living tree from few thousand ringgit to up to ten thousand ringgit.
I guess it is time to turn green.
tingin nk msuk hutan 😉

Great to know one State is promoting lost values from the trees…and simultaneously make that State environment friendly.
No wonder PAS is loved by the people there…behaving and doing God’s work…that UMNO can’t even understand…yet both are muslims. Which do you think God believe?
