I have been asked a lot of questions especially regarding this statement “What is the potential of doing business online?”
My answer is “sky is the limit”. There are so many ways for you to do an online business and get your business expose online. What do I mean expose? Is to get known by a lot of people online or get known worldwide. How is that possible? Look these stats below. Pictures and illustrations explain better than few words.
As you could see above there are millions of people on the internet today. Asia seems to be the most usage in the world with a handsome growth of 346.6% but the penetration for Asia is still low which is only 13.7% when compared to its population. So the potential for us in Asia is still huge. Let's get global to all my friends in Asia.

The Potential for all Malaysians is huge. See below . . .
It is reported that the number of the Internet subscribers in Malaysia is expected to reach the 10 million mark in the next five years according to Telekom Malaysia (TM) Bhd General Manager of Strategic Development Division. The statement is based on the growing trend of Internet users in the last three years as Malaysia moved towards advanced information, communications and multimedia services.
In 2004 the number of subscribers was 2.9 million, in 2005 it increased to 3.5 million subscribers, and in 2006 the number of subscribers in Malaysia was close to five million. This is an encouraging growing trend, and most of the Internet subscribers were eyeing for high speed broadband infrastructure.
So hope this explains why internet business or doing business online is viable nowadays.
