Southeast Asian companies hit important milestones, while the region still faces unequal internet access and data protection challenges.

South Korean K-pop bands BTS and Blackpink, and actors Hyun Bin and Jackie Chan, attract millions of shoppers to Southeast Asia’s e-commerce platforms.

Shopee and Lazada would collect tax for merchants under the new plan.

Customer misunderstanding of cash on delivery is a big part of the problem, experts say.
