Have you been shopping online more than usual this year? You’re not alone!

#ECommerce has really come to prominence during the #COVID19 pandemic, with online retailers seeing profits outreaching the same period last year, and #Africa has not been an exception in this growth. The industry there is predicted to be worth US$75 billion by 2025, and the continent has an expanding middle-class market expected to stand at 1.1 billion by 2050!

This provides lots of opportunities for Taiwanese businesses in the region, which is why MOFA hosted the "E-Commerce in Africa: Prospects, Potential and Challenges" Seminar, in coordination with TAITRA, in order to provide a foothold and knowledge base for those eager to enter the market!

Experts provided analysis of current market trends in the region and an overview of the potential of e-commerce firms from our ally #Eswatini.

On the occasion of Earth Day 2018 Kering presents a video about plastic pollution, which reports 13.2 billion tonnes of plastic waste will enter the environment by 2050 if trends continue. Since 2016 Kering has removed PVC from all the luxury group’s collections.

[10 REASONS WHY ASIANS DON'T GET FAT]

Now of course, there are Asians who are fat or chubby, so the title is a bit of a generalized statement or stereotype, but as a whole, there's definitely some truth to it. Genetics is an obvious factor so I'm gonna leave that one off the list.

1. Fish & Seafood

Asians eat a lot of seafood. The biggest benefit to eating fish is the omega-3 fatty acids. Fish gives our brain and body the DHA & EPA it needs. EPA in particular has been shown to prevent obesity. 1.5 to 2 grams daily of fish oil can produce weight loss of a couple pounds over a period of a month.

2. Cooking Methods

If you compare Western and Asian eating habits, sure they both consume deep fried foods, but Asian countries vary their cooking methods a lot more.

3. Food Perception

How people see and experience food can be different depending on where you are. In America, for example, food is seen more as entertainment. There is desire, joy and anticipation associated with eating. Not that it isn't in Asian countries, but it's a lot more toned down. Eating has more of a practical feel, in many cases closer to being a chore rather than entertainment.

4. Portion Size

Asians eat smaller portions. Food is often served in small serving bowls and small plates and this helps regulate how much is consumed in one sitting. Now if we take a look at America? SUPERSIZE!

5. Leafy Greens

Asian portion size in general might be smaller, but their vegetable portion size is consistently larger. In many Asian countries, people don't even need to be reminded to eat their veg. It's just ingrained.

6. Drink Habits

It is a common belief that drinking water, especially cold water, with your meal is a habit that one should avoid, as it dilutes your digestive enzymes and makes it harder for your stomach to digest food. Americans often drink cold water or sodas with their meals, not so much for Asian people however. Rather they drink hot teas before or after a meal. I should note that many experts say this is greatly exaggerated and that it's generally ok to drink water with your meals.

7. Population Density

Many Asian countries & cities are densely populated. There are lots of people living in small apartments and almost everything you need is just round the corner. Leading one to possibly conclude that many Asian people must exert less energy in their daily lives. In actuality, Asian people in this circumstance may end up walking more. With everything being in close proximity, they are more inclined to just walk to their destination, whereas in many Western countries, distances are often too great.

8. Fermented Foods

Asians consume more fermented foods such as miso, natto, tempeh, kimchi, kombucha, etc, and this is not just good for your gut health, but helps reduce the overall inflammation in the body. And inflammation is a contributing factor to weight gain and obesity.

9. Snacks & Desserts

This one's quite simple. Asian snacks, healthy, Western snacks, not so much. Asian snacks and desserts may be rice cakes, red beans, seaweed snacks, nuts, seeds, and lots of fruit. For Western snacks and desserts, you have cookies, chips, ice cream, sugary cakes.

10. Prevention vs Treatment
Asians practice prevention, while others practice treatment. With the Western approach, you have your antibiotics, antacids, NSAIDs, quick, temporary, remedies that might actually hurt you in the long run. The Asian approach attempts to get to the root of the problem using nutrition, healthy habits, prevention practices. It's a societal mindset. Health is not simply the absence of sickness.
