Indonesian Ixora?

[Pudji Widodo]

Dear All,
It is a small tree, to 8 m tall, ca 15  cm diameter, canopy close (ca 1 m) to the ground.
I would like to know whether it is Ixora or not.  What is the correct name.
Thank you.

Can you send a better picture showing foliage etc.of Saraca species
for identification. It is quite possible that it could be
S.thaipingensis, which is also cultivated in many places like
Bangalore.
