Alibaba Hosts Warm-Up Party in Malaysia to Celebrate 10th Year of 11.11

To all the shopaholics in Malaysia (including myself), it’s time for the ultimate shopping spree! On the 11 November 2018, Malaysians will be spoilt for choice in this year’s Alibaba 11.11 with a wide variety of product offerings ranging from Fashion, Beauty, Gadgets & Electronics, to Home & Living categories across 180,000 brands from Malaysia and around the world.
Tmall's 11.11 journey for the past 10 years was showcased in a spectacular animated projection on the pillar of KL Tower with mesmerizing fireworks display that lights up the night sky.

Alibaba Group brings its celebration of the 10th Anniversary of the 11.11 Global Shopping Festival to Malaysia ahead of the largest annual one-day sale event in the world with a mesmerizing light show at the iconic Kuala Lumpur Tower on 31 Oct. We are honoured to witness this big milestone of Alibaba's 11.11 at the beautiful night skylines.

Businesses within the Alibaba ecosystem will jointly offer hundreds of millions of consumers around the world – including Malaysian shoppers – high-quality products, entertainment and fast, reliable services.

At the same time, through the Malaysian Country Pavilion on Tmall Global, an extension of Tmall that helps overseas merchants who do not have a presence in China to sell directly into the country, hundreds of millions of Chinese consumers will be able to pick up even more attractive deals on unique and authentic products from Malaysian brands and SMEs during the shopping festival.
