Singapore
THE e-commerce war in Singapore was supercharged on Tuesday with news that Amazon will launch its largest sales event, Prime Day, in the Republic for the first time.
Prime Day, a highly-anticipated shopping event, the timing of which Amazon usually reveals only closer to the day, will occur a day after the frenzy of the 2018 Fifa World Cup final. Online bargain hunters will have 36 hours - from the midday of July 16 to the midnight of July 17 (Singapore time) - to shop.
