Southeast Asian Market Southeast Asia has a population of 600 million, which is less than half of China's population, and has a high population density. As an Asian region, it has a natural geographical advantage over China, and its consumption habits are similar to those of China. Compared with developed markets in Europe and the United States, the Southeast Asian market is still in the category of emerging e-commerce markets, and e-commerce infrastructure such as the Internet, logistics, and payment systems are still under development. However, due to the same geographical advantage, compared with other emerging markets such as Africa, Latin America, and Russia, China's logistics solutions to Southeast Asian countries are more diverse and have shorter timeliness. Southeast Asia has a population of more than 600 million, of which 340 million are Internet users, and the e-commerce market is as high as US$21.8 billion.
