JD.com, China’s largest retailer, has gained another foothold in Southeast Asia with its strategic investment in Tiki, Vietnam’s leading B2C e-commerce platform.
After five years of implementation of the General Plan to Develop Electronic Commerce 2011-15, e-commerce has contributed greatly to the country's socio-economic growth.
