Over the past decade, China has become the world’s largest live streaming market and Southeast Asia became the fastest-growing internet economy too. Boosted by the COVID-19 lockdown, the number of live streaming users in China has expanded to 500 million, and that of mobile streaming users in Southeast Asia has grown by 60%.
