I was in Borneo a couple of months ago, and i tried two different types of fruit, but i can;t remember what they were called!
One was in a wierd shell, that looked prickly, but the 'prickles' were soft and bendy, you pulled open the shell and there was a fruit, kind of like a lychee, inside with a stone in the middle?
The other one was really wierd! It was like a stick with loads of little fruits on it, and they looked like mini lychees, but there was loads of them and you had to kind of pull them off!
I know my descriptions are a bit vague, sorry! But any info will help, thanks :-)

Not sure...think the first one could be the 'Rambutan' fruit.

yep, the first one will be Rambutan and the second, might be duku, langsat or mata kucing.


hope this might help...you need to give more details on colour of the skin, taste, texture or any other physical appearance of the fruit..then we know what exactly it is...

I can only tell you the first one. its also grown in the
tropical parts of China but I suspect it was imported to
China. Its Chinese name is Hu Gao due to its fiery red
skin, tastes sour and sweet at the same time.
