Cambodian ICT Masterplan 2020 12.3 Improving e-Commerce Environment e-Commerce is defined conducting digitally enabled business transactions between and among organizations and individuals on the Internet. Although e-business is the broader concept including e-commerce in the popular sense, e-commerce differs from e-business in the sense that no exchange of value across organizational or individual boundaries, takes place in e-business. Thus e-business turns into e-Commerce when an exchange of value between and among organizations and individuals occurs across their boundaries. 12.3.1 Improving e-Commerce Infrastructure Legislation and policy-making for online business and online security are made to encourage e-commerce and to improve the e-commerce environment. Development of online payment methods is executed. 12.3.2 Support for Logistics and Distribution Companies It is necessary for e-commerce to be invigorated when related infrastructure such as a robust postal system is established. Logistics and distribution companies and major retail distribution companies must be supported by government. 12.4 Enhancing e-Banking and Financial Network e-Banking, which stands for electronic banking, makes possible for customers of financial institutions to electronically perform financial transaction process virtually. The virtual forms of e-Banking are ATM (Automatic Teller Machine), Telephone Banking (operator-oriented and automated), and Internet Banking (PC-based, Mobile-based).
