BUENOS AIRES Comprar Hombre Air Force One Low Cuero QS Blancas , Sept. 4 (Xinhua) -- China's leading e-commerce company Alibaba sees "huge potential to develop e-commerce" in Latin America, Michael Lee, Alibaba's director of global marketing and business development, told Xinhua in a recent interview here.


Despite the advantages of "a large market opportunity with highly capable entrepreneurs in Latin America," Lee also indicated the challenges of developing this market.


"Countries in the region show great varieties in terms of economy, Internet penetration and wide-ranging regulations governing e-commerce," he said. "This is why we feel we must study the region carefully on a case-by-case basis."


"For example Comprar Air Force One High PRM 07 Sneakers Mica , Chile is a small country, but it is at the same level as Brazil in e-commerce, as people there are used to buying online," Lee said.


Asked about the situation in Argentina, the Alibaba representative praised the local businessmen, calling them "highly-prepared, with great ideas." Yet he also acknowledged this sector's difficulties due to government regulations.


"While there are import and export restrictions in Argentina Comprar Air Force One Mid 07 Blancas Negras , when they are no longer necessary, everyone in this country will be ready to approach e-business," Lee said.


This has made Alibaba's mission in Argentina to "help small businesses grow via the Internet and perhaps become part of our offering," he said.


One of the challenges in all sectors of Latin America is "to educate consumers and show them that e-commerce is more effective than traditional ways of trading," Lee said.


In Latin America, the demand for e-commerce is driven by specific industries. While electronics and clothing dominate across the continent, Argentina has machinery in third place while Brazilians like to shop for hair extensions.


During an "E-commerce day" conference at the Hilton Hotel in Buenos Aires earlier this week Comprar Hombre Air Force One 07 Low Metallic Doradas Blancas , Lee educated a crowd of professionals on this sector's growth, and emphasized the rise of the business-to-business (b2b) global expansion model, which is already far larger than business-to-consumer (b2c).


On the future of electronic commerce, Lee believed the United States will continue as the "undisputed" leader and stressed the technology will become more accessible worldwide.


Alibaba Group owns other business sites that connect businesses and individuals together or crossed, such as Tmall, Taobao or AliExpress, and the retail sales site was ranked among the 10 most visited sales pages by Argentines in 2013.


What's more Comprar Special Field Air Force One , the Chinese giant owns Alipay, an online payment platform, and owns stocks belonging to Sina Weibo and Youku Tudou, the Chinese equivalents of Twitter and YouTube.


In 2014, Alibaba's listing on the New York Stock Exchange became the largest global IPO of all time.


In conclusion, Lee told Xinhua that his trip to Argentina allowed him to deepen his local knowledge and understanding of Latin American consumers. "This is useful as we can go back and adjust our strategies to provide more tailored solutions," he said.


WASHINGTON Comprar Air Force One Off White , Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- U.S. Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton on Monday unveiled a 350-billion-dollar higher education plan aimed at cutting college tuition and easing debt burdens for college loanees.


Dubbed the New College Compact, the plan seeks to reduce the cost of four-year public colleges to such an extent that a loan would be unnecessary, and to make two-year community colleges tuition-free.


For those already with a student debt, the plan seeks to reduce the interest rates by allowing refinancing at current federal rates. The Clinton camp estimated that about 25 million borrowers would benefit from the plan.


Prior to her announcement, Clinton's two other major primary challengers, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley, had already proposed their own more radical versions of college affordability plan Comprar Air Force One Negras Mid , including eliminating tuition and fees for public universities.


"We can't expect the federal government just to pay the bill for free. That's not how America works," said Clinton at a rally in New Hampshire without publicly criticizing her Democratic rivals.


Although Clinton's plan covers all the fees for military veterans, lower-income students and those who participate in a national service program, most students and their families will still have to pay certain proportion of the cost and students will also be required to contribute wages from ten hours of work per week.


The proposal, estimated to cost the federal government 350 billion dollars in a decade, could face formidable opposition from the Republican Party because the cost will come from trimming tax deductions for the richest Americans.
