    INDONESIAN unicorn Bukalapak is partnering Singapore startup Janio for cross-border logistics as it prepares to go global. The e-commerce player is also in talks with Singapore's Economic Development Board to potentially open an office in the country, co-founder Fajrin Rasyid told The Business Times.

    Bukalapak launched BukaGlobal on Monday, allowing consumers from Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei, Hong Kong and Taiwan to buy products from merchants in Indonesia through the Bukalapak platform.
