Kuala Lumpur (VNA) - Malaysia’s strategic location, strong courier networks, and growing digital consumer base provide a solid foundation for e-commerce success, said David Black, CEO and Founder of Blackbox Research.
Today, Malaysia sits at the heart of this transformation, uniquely positioned to harness the e-commerce boom sweeping across the region. Yet, to fully capitalise on its potential and not lose ground to its neighbours, Malaysia must confront key challenges, including its logistics infrastructure.
According to the latest whitepaper “Grasping the E-Commerce Opportunity in Southeast Asia”, Malaysia now ranks second in regional e-commerce performance, narrowly edging ahead of Indonesia and Thailand.
Black said the findings in the whitepaper illuminate the path forward: invest in logistics innovation, foster inclusive public-private dialogue, regulate with dexterity and creativity, and build infrastructure that supports both urban and rural markets./.
