If you want to try, make a propagation container (Tau hue or plastic container with medium) sprinkle some of the black dust seed you saw (yes I think they are probably seeds, I hope they are, and yes they are that small). Just a few for experiment, you should get some more when you get back from your trip. Sprinkle on surface of medium, medium should be quite wet, but not flooded. Then put in bright light but not directly light (still unsure what this means really, but I think it means maybe 30 mins to 1 hour of direct sunlight and mostly indirect daylight).

Hopefully when you come home you will have seedlings, if not then try again with your new seeds.

In Japan I am not sure how easy to find CPs, I have seen them in 2 stores so far only, both are in Kansai area (yes near Kansai airport). I have never seen seeds, mostly plants. I only buy them because I saw them and didn't have them in my collection. I only bring maybe 2 at a time and bring in my baggage. I live in Philippines, so can't say about how strict in Malaysia. Usually 1 or 2 plants is not so strict. I bring them home bare root with just moist tissue paper as medium. All of the ones that I bring from Japan have survived, but that is only a 5 hour trip. Frankly when you buy CP from Japan supermarket, it's the same as others, it's like a "rescue" because they don't get sunlight when being displayed.

TTFN means Ta Ta for Now, same as Tigger from Winnie the Pooh.
