Socheat Chea, a Cambodian student with big dreams, wouldn't attract much attention if he walked down a street in his country since he doesn't talk a lot and is a bit shy around strangers.

"I often do shopping at Taobao and JD," he said, referring to China's two most popular online shopping websites.
