While Alibaba founder Jack Ma vigilantly disclosed his global expansion plan about Consumer-to-Consumer (C2C) and Busines-to-Busines (B2B) marketing strategy with Financial Times in year 2009, Global Sources, also echoed with a new “e-sourcing” program” just now with more emphasis on Import to China.
The program, targeting to verified suppliers who have more willingness and capabilities to doing business online, would start from a Russian buyer. Setting their eyes on emerging market such as Russia, India and Brazil, Global Sources would help China suppliers sell to buyers in these area.
Unlike Alibaba, which now focuses more work on “Export to China”, Global Sources seems to place their bet on the promise land in emerging markets.

Kelikuru.com is 嘰哩咕嚕, a Chinese term basically means rumbling. The idea comes across TG's mind while watching a cartoon show on TV few years ago. We walk through our life,day by day ; speak to many people, known or unknown, year after year and we may not notice that there are so many wonderful things passing by. Writing a blog can literally leave my foot-prints in the internet world, help me keep the memory. At this moment, a big chunk of my life is closely aligned with user-centric design, user research, web-based environment both in Hong Kong and China. Perhaps I may not be like that tomorrow, I may be in other setting, have nothing to do with usability, but who knows what's going to happen next?
