    THE Asia-Pacific region – encompassing East Asia, South Asia, South-east Asia and Oceania – is a unique tapestry of languages and cultures, with each country having distinctive characteristics and business potential.

    The entire region is fragmented, with two major superpowers China and India, global hubs such as Singapore and Hong Kong, and large consumer bases such as Australia, Japan and South Korea.

    While this diversity presents tremendous opportunities for organisations seeking to expand into the region, it also comes with several challenges. Therefore, a one-size-fits-all approach to communication and marketing strategies is not feasible to capture the market.
