The Alibaba.com-sponsored China Internet Conference in Hangzhou has generated plenty of easy copy for journalists from all over the world. The Indian papers were full of it over the weekend and the People's Daily continues the theme it was addressing last week on how e-commerce is about to take off. It quotes Song Ling of the China Electronic Commerce Association as saying that there are now 20 million "e-commerce dealers". The turn of phrase may be a bit odd but the point seems to be that up to one-fifth of China's regular Internet users are using the web to buy and sell whether for personal or business purposes.
