The market was quiet. Price in Viet Nam remained unchanged at the level of VND 81,000 per Kg for black and VND 127,500 for white traded locally. In Lampung, the market was very quiet. Almost no trading activity took place, due to very low price coupled with scarce stock available at farms. Upcoming harvest in Lampung is not promising.

Unlike in Kochi, India; the price of Malabar black remained high at the level of INR 500 (US$7.75) per Kg. High internal demand has kept prices at higher site. When compared to average price in the last week, a marginal increase of 1% was recorded. In Sri Lanka, the price also increased.
