It is part of our national identity,\" said DMA President Eric Chan.This request was confirmed by Nor Sam Alwi, the Director General of the Department of Agriculture, who mentioned that the decision requires a comprehensive study across institutions, covering socio-economic impact, export value, cultural heritage, public acceptance, and industrial interests.DMA President Eric Chan emphasizes the extension of Geographical Indication (GI) status for musang king (D197) until March 2034, thereby reinforcing the claim of origin and preventing external parties from using the name. \"The extension of the GI is like a passport that proves Musang King truly belongs to Malaysia,\" he said.Yunia Pratiwi contributed to this articleEditor's Choice: Interesting Facts About Durian, Its Trees Can Live Up to 100 YearsClick here to get the latest news updates from Tempo on Google News","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.35.12","shortVersion":"4.35.12","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2585543772","isCrawlerRequest":true}
