With the number of mobile internet users in Malaysia projected to increase by 5% over the next few years, reaching more than 21 million users, the online sales segment is expected to grow in tandem with this trend, according to a study by Tetra Pak, the world’s leading food processing and packaging solutions company.

The Malaysian Business Sentiment Survey 2018/2019, conducted by Monash University Malaysia in collaboration with CPA Australia and Global Asia in the 21st Century Research Platform, gathers the opinions, voice and feelings of the country’s business leaders. 

The survey highlights concerns that could potentially affect businesses seeking growth through investments in existing products and services in new markets and these findings merit attention if Malaysia is to remain competitive in a global economy without borders.
