Abstract: | The new Asian office, reports Alejandro Reyers, is harnessing the graphics-rich, wide-open format of the global Internet. When David Lo, a Citibank executive in Taipei, sends electronic mail to his boss five matters away, the note used to take a slight detour. The bank's global e-mail system, which links its offices worldwide, routes messages within Asia, including those within a single office, through a computer in Singapore. But these days Citibank Taiwan relies more on an internal e-mail system for faster delivery and Chinese language capability. |
