Abstract

E-commerce and e-business have been suggested as a key strategy in the new millennium.Though e-business is not something new, firms in the Malaysian palm oil industry can be labeled as traditional firms due to passive approach in utilising e-business.Why is this happening? What went wrong? This paper attempts to review the use of e-business in the Malaysian palm oil industry in the face of globalisation.A case study is presented to compare the utilisation of e-business between a firm from the Malaysian palm oil industry and a firm from the Australian input industry.The recommendations of this study are to learn from the success of the Australian experience.
