Papers included focus on practical applications of electronic commerce in the region. Case studies of successful applications deal with the EDI networks in Singapore, the Port Klang Community Systems in Malaysia, and the EDI application in the shipping industry in Japan. The publication examines the framework for adopting electronic commerce by the developing countries of the ESCAP region. It analyzes the development of systems for pre-transaction processing, the integration of international trade information initiatives, and the introduction of EDI in the customs environment in the ESCAP region.
