The World Expected a Chinese Tech Takeover. Alibaba Can’t Even Conquer Vietnam.

In Thailand, great slaughtering of small shops by e-commerce websites Lazada, and shopee is happening. Lazada is Alibaba's. Shopee.I guess Singapore's?

They kill small businesses. Both based in Singapore. Lazada is controlled by Alibaba though. I think in few years we won’t go outside, just ordering everything online, becoming fat and lazy.

Most Viet people consider made-in-China products as cheap and low quality.

most probably Chinese exported low quality goods to Vietnam because they know most of Vietnam can't buy expensive and high quality stuff @Viet

I believe this is a stereotype fast dissipating. At least in the United States. I would be surprised if Vietnam had higher quality tolerance standards than those of the United States.

True. The super rich are buying Chinese made yachts. At first the super rich are adverse to made in China, thinking it is Walmart quality (made of cheap plastic glued together), but as more and more are sold with no problems and rave reviews, more of the super rich are buying Chinese made yachts.

Vietnamese are biases against the Chinese and will be the last to figure out made in China does not mean cheap low quality crap anymore. If the 'merican supplier requests the Chinese factories to made cheap crap, that is the 'merican suppliers fault. Lepin was destroying Lego because they were getting to the quality of Lego (Lego was a rip-off of a British company - Kiddicraft). Yes, Lepin was a rip-off of lego, but a quality rip-off of lego. And that will be the new complaint. "China is making quality boats, and these boats look like German quality boats, the Chinese are cheating making such fine boats! China was suppose to mean crap products, and the German were suppose to make quality, how dare the Chinese copy the quality of the Germans! Those thieving Chinese!"

As far as I know Alibaba owned Lazada is still among the leading e-commerce website in South east Asia(Vietnam included). Or I'm I wrong ?

I like AliExpress though. They do have a wide range of products compared to even eBay or Amazon. So SOMETIMES I shop there, only if I'm not in a hurry to receive a product though since they don't have next day delivery option in Europe unlike more global companies like Amazon etc.

You expect a U.S. regime mouthpiece to write their stories on the back of facts and some basic integrity? Its just another excuse for smear to fill the void and push to shift the overtone agaisnt China. Cant have their "free thinking" sheep go a single day with some anti-China propaganda.

The only "fact" that remotely points into the direction of their narrative is their claim that Alibaba recently lost marketshare to a Singaporean company according to some app and alleged anonymous insider sources, they never actuallly tell anything about. Not what they actually said. Not how much. Not why. Nothing. Nothing else is even supports their story.
How shallow and disingenious it is to project Vietnam of all countries on South East Asia and the whole world, I think does not need any further explanation on this forum. Then they drifft into blowing up "rumors", conjecture about anecdotes and push the opinons they really wanted to talk about.

Just another hollow facade for a cheap smear.
