Toki' Ringai is termite droppings
The word "Toki' Ringai" actually derived from a name of a person name (Ringai). Somehow one day "Ringai" said something about the termite droppings that it was perceived to be funny by the people and for that reason they eventually associate his name to it and called it "Toki' Ringai" which literraly means Ringai's poo. The termites itself is called "Tilupuod". It's strange but true :).
