Haha, there has many name i still never hear before, my apologize for my swallow knowledge on wood.

But i do know Belian, my customer told me before for this species, it actually same as hard as Balau, but lighter. It is a very good feedback wood.

Actually Belian is harder & heavier than Balau. Balau about 850kg/m3 vs Belian about 1000kg/m3.
Due to the excellent resistance to bacterial, fungal, insect and marine borer attack; Belian hard to get. Cannot exported outside Msia or outside Sarawak. Still can import from Sabah for local use.
Belian got service life of up to 100 years in direct soil contact like kampung house and more than 20 years for marine work like bridge or floating house.
It's the best wood u can find in Msia.
