2 group-buying site in the US (next to Groupon) has entered the Philippines by acquiring the top group-buying site in the country, Ensogo.com.ph. Groupon also entered the Philippine market last December 2010 by buying into Beeconomic, a Singapore-based company that set up office a month before that. Big ticket player Groupon hasn't really penetrated this part of Asia until news broke out early this week. In a surprise move to enter the Asian market, Groupon bought a bunch of local start-ups -- AtlasPost in Taiwan, uBuyiBuy in Hong Kong and Beeconomic in Singapore.

In the same news report on Wednesday, Groupon also launched Groupon Hong Kong, Groupon Singapore, Groupon Philippines and Groupon Taiwan. Groupon's global network has more than 33 million subscribers in 35 countries. Read more in our articles including "LivingSocial lands, buys Ensogo" and "Groupon buys its way into the Philippines".
