Last July, Rama discussed and delivered criticism to a startup that claimed itself as the biggest social commerce in Asia. The startup is DealGoing.com. By far, for Indonesia, DealGoing has aggregated some contents from so many local daily deals such as Disdus, DealKeren, Lapar.com, and some other local daily deals.

The article stated that DealGoing showed their plan to expand to Singapore, Phillipines, Malaysia, and Korea, according to the July 2011 plan. In fact, it is only in October 2011, DealGoing is officially expanded to Singapore. The link of the site is sg.dealgoing.com.

From the press release we received, Singapore is the second launching venue of DealGoing in Asia. Singapore is chosen because of the high number of internet penetration and the citizens’ enthusiasm for online shopping. Edward Kin – Dealgoing.com founder, explained that based on the Paypal research in 2011, 87% from the internet users in Asia are online shops customers. In addition, Singapore is one of the 10 Asian countries with fastest e-commerce growth.

Scott Choi, Singaporean DealGoing CEO, explained that online shopping is internet activity number 3 done by women in Singapore, besides blogging and social networking.

By now, Dealgoing.com has been aggregated contents from some daily deals services in Singapore like Deal.com.sg, Outlet, Jigocity, Tip-It, Urban, Journery, Big Deal, Bighooha, and other daily deal services from Singapore. To access it via mobile devices, recently DealGoing can only be accessed via mobile web on m.dealgoing.com. The mobile apps service is still being developed for iOS, Android, or BlackBerry platform.

DealGoing also will do expansion to Philippines and Malaysia in the end of October and the beginning of November. After coping with both countries’ market, DealGoing will expand to Thailand and Vietnam. To know the further information, you may read the press release here.

However, the question is “Will the DealGoing dominated the Asian market?”
