Threats This is a widespread species that suffers from the general threats associated with expanding human populations. Clearance of mangrove areas occurs for timber extraction and urban developments. Mangroves are increasingly converted to fish and prawn aquaculture and may be reclaimed for rice production. Forests are cleared, for example, for timber extraction, palm oil plantations and agriculture. The utilisation of its heartwood for the production of incense may pose athreat to this species in the wild. The effects of this on the population are difficult to quantify, but Jansen (1999) suggests that the prospects of cultivating it, to prevent the species being eradicated from the wild, should be investigated.

It occurs in existing protected areas, such as the Princess Sirindhorn wildlife sanctuary (RAMSAR wetland of international importance) in Thailand, and the Kinabalu World Heritage Reserve in Sabah. However, many of the records for this species fall outside such protected areas. It was not found in available lists of seed bank or botanic garden species.

An oil can be distilled from the wood and applied to ulcerating wounds, and a decoction of the wood in water is used as a tonic, also grated wood can be rubbed on the skin to invigorate the body (Jansen 1999)
