One of my Indian friend told me that it is a very expensive tree. In India he said it is protected by the government. Lots of illigal loggers are really up to that tree. Im not really sure what is the value of it in the market. Azilina is correct, ask your dad tostop dealing with those 'businessman' at the moment and try to research more about the tree back in your land. Im from Cebu so I'll try also to contact some of my chinese friends about the tree.

Im also here in Doha and working here in Ras Laffan.
