    Asia-Pacific consumers are the world's most prolific online shoppers and many rely on Internet reviews when making purchases, research firm Nielsen said Tuesday. The firm said 35 percent of consumers in the region used over 11 percent of their monthly spending to make online purchases, compared to a global average of 27 percent of consumers. - source: Agence France Presse

    Good info for someone starting out in ecommerce.

    Do you know if they buy from sites in English, or mainly in their own languages?

    I think your sites should support multi languages for the best :)
