Prime Global Capital Group Innovates, Reduces Maturity Time of Durian Trees


KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA--(Marketwired - Sep 28, 2016) - Prime Global Capital Group Inc. (OTCQB: PGCG) ("PGCG" or the Company"), a company, through its subsidiaries, engaged principally in real estate and plantation businesses in Malaysia, today is proud to announce that it has successfully developed a new breed of 'Musang King' durian seedlings which reduces the maturity time of the durian tree from the usual 5 years to 3 years.

Together with this new breed of seedlings, a new method of planting was developed to enhance the trees resistance to wind, promote speedy growth and build its immunity against pests. Trials have shown that yields from this new breed coupled with the Company's newly developed bio-fertilizer will potentially be tripled for each harvest.

Dato' Weng Kung Wong, CEO of PGCG, commented, "We are thrilled to have successfully developed a new breed of durian tree seedlings that cuts standard maturity time by 40%, while also created a planting method that helps sustain and support its growth. Currently each 'Musang King' durian tree produces 100 grade A durian fruit per harvest, which occurs twice a year. We project that with our new breed of seedlings, each tree to produce 300 grade A durian fruits. Each grade A durian fruit weights over 2kg. The current price for grade A 'Musang King' durian fruits is between RM25-RM30 per kg. Together with our existing 130 acres of durian plantation, there will be in total 10,000 trees in total, all of which will mature in stages with the last batch maturing in 2019. We expect the first 'Musang King' fruit to be harvested in early 2019."

PGCG has started the replanting process on an additional 150 acres with this new breed of 'Musang King' durian seedlings and is targeting to complete the whole replanting process by end of 2016.
