> it’s taken for granted you can pay online and have goods delivered to your door. While this isn’t the case yet in many big markets in Asia

Just nitpicking here but I found this comment a bit strange. eCommerce is HUGE at least in China. Taobao for example generated 3 billions US$ in sales in 24 hours recently.

Everything is huge in China. That doesn't mean that most chineese can order something online and receive it at their door.

(I don't know if they can. But your comment is a non-sequitour.)
