"We are thrilled to bring Taobao's 11.11 Sale back to Malaysian consumers and enhance it to be bigger and better than ever. Our commitment is to create a shopping experience that is not only enjoyable but also tailored to the unique needs of local shoppers.

"With the beta English interface now available, it has never been easier for everyone in Malaysia to immerse themselves in the excitement of this global shopping festival and discover all that Taobao has to offer," said Jess Lew, Country Manager for Tmall Taobao World, Malaysia.

"We hope more Malaysian users will leverage this opportunity to shop for anything that comes to mind during this 11.11. Coupled with free shipping, shoppers can have their parcels delivered to their doorsteps in as fast as one week with our robust end-to-end logistics infrastructure," she added.
