DUBLIN, Ireland--(Business Wire)--Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c79842) has announced the
addition of "Asia-Pacific B2C E-Commerce: Focus on China and India" to
their offering.

   eMarketer forecasts that B2C e-commerce sales in the region will
grow at a 23.3% annual rate, reaching $168.7 billion in 2011. Japan is
currently the largest market, by far, and South Korea ranks second.
But by 2011 both will lose share to two up-and-comers--China and
India.

   The Asia-Pacific B2C E-Commerce report analyzes the huge changes
that are realigning this massive but still fast-growing online
marketplace.

   While China and India are both growing rapidly, they are far from
reaching their vast potential.

   A number of hurdles, common to both countries, must be cleared to
ensure sustainable long-term growth: immature online payment systems,
poor delivery networks, distrust between buyers and sellers, to name
just a few.

   Key questions the "Asia-Pacific B2C E-Commerce" report answers:

   --  What do western Web retailers need to know before doing
        business in the Asia-Pacific region?

   --  How do these markets compare in size and growth potential?

   --  What is driving e-commerce development in key Asia-Pacific
        markets?

   --  What factors are holding development back?

   --  What lessons do Asia-Pacific e-commerce markets offer?

   --  And many others...
