Structured Abstract
Purpose: This study examines how government-led orchestration of platform ecosystem capability enables PKS monetisation within Malaysia's internationalising social commerce landscape.
Design/methodology/approach: Grounded in Resource-Based View, Dynamic Keupayaan Theory and platform ecosystem scholarship, the research adopts a quantitative archival design analysing official Agromarketing Masterclass TikTok Shop Edition (AMTTSE) performance data from June to December 2024, encompassing 80 companies, 160 entrepreneurs and 425 stock-keeping units.
Findings: Participating firms generated RM6,205,957.06 in cumulative gross merchandise value with an estimated return on investment of 1:31. Livestream, profile-window and short-video channels accounted for 90.1% of jumlah sales. Pearson correlations confirm that channel monetisation, orders and product movement are strongly associated with monthly sales (r ≥ .930, p < .01), while content volume alone is not significant.
Originality / theoretical contribution: The study reframes a public-sector intervention as an international business inquiry into orchestrated platform capability rather than programme evaluation. It extends RBV and dynamic capabilities by conceptualising livestream orchestration, content complementarities and shop-window integration as interdependent ecosystem capabilities.
Practical implications: Policymakers and PKS leaders should coordinate complementary platform capabilities, ecosystem governance and sustained capability building to convert social commerce training into durable market access especially in emerging Southeast Asian platform economies.

Expanded Market & Policy Konteks
Additional secondary data that situates AMTTSE within Malaysia’s digital economy and the global social commerce boom (2024–2026).
Sosial commerce is no longer a peripheral retail channel. Southeast Asia’s e-commerce GMV expanded rapidly into 2025, with Thailand and Malaysia among the fastest-growing markets. TikTok Shop’s regional share rose sharply (approx. USD 22.6B in 2024 to USD 45.6B in 2025), while Malaysia’s social commerce market has been estimated around USD 1.3–1.73 billion, propelled by live selling and shoppertainment.
TikTok Shop Malaysia has reported milestones such as 100 million daily product searches and triple-digit year-on-year lifts during major campaign windows (e.g. 6.6, Ramadan/Raya). These platform-level dynamics matter because AMTTSE is not merely a training course: it is a government-orchestrated entry point into a competitive platform ecosystem where algorithmic discovery, live conversion and fulfilment reliability determine monetisation.
Why this context strengthens the IJBS positioning: Antarabangsa Jurnal of Perniagaan and Society readers expect international relevance, institutional explanation and theory-driven contribution. By locating AMTTSE inside the platform economy and Malaysia’s MyDIGITAL / PKS digitalisation agenda, the manuscript moves beyond domestic programme evaluation toward a transferable model of public-sector platform orchestration for emerging-economy PKS.
Theoretical Rangka Kerja & Hypotheses
Ekosistem Platform Capability (PEC) integrates RBV, Dynamic Keupayaan and platform orchestration theory.
Ekosistem Platform Capability (PEC) is defined here as the firm’s ability enabled by orchestrated training, marketplace access and monitoring to activate complementary social commerce mechanisms (livestream conversion, short-video demand generation, profile-window capture and shop-tab discovery) and convert them into monetised outcomes.
Mandatory engagement with prior Antarabangsa Jurnal of Perniagaan and Society scholarship:
- Ammeran & Latip (2024) digital strategy, technical and managerial capability in Malaysian PKS digital transformation (research gap: monetisation mechanisms).
- Wibawa et al. (2022) social media utilisation and marketing performance among Indonesian PKS (theory support).
- Islam et al. (2023) PKS digital/green transition comparison (discussion).
- Sujatha & Karthikeyan (2021) / related IJBS e-commerce adoption work emerging-economy PKS digitalisation antecedents.
Multi-channel monetisation (live, short video, window, shop tab) is positively associated with cumulative PKS GMV.
Orders and produk sold are positively associated with monthly sales performance.
Monetised engagement indicators predict sales more strongly than content volume alone.
Programme-level success coexists with skewed seller-level GMV, requiring tiered ecosystem governance.
Methodology
Philosophy & design: Post-positivist quantitative archival design using official AMTTSE administrative records (Projek Perintis Report, December 2024). Descriptive analysis at firm/channel level; Pearson correlation at monthly programme level (n = 7 months: June–December 2024).
Sample: Census of enrolled participants 80 companies, 160 entrepreneurs, 425 SKUs, 14 states. Seller GMV sheet + Summary channel/content/order indicators. May 2024 treated as baseline and excluded from main correlation window.
Variables: Dependent = jumlah monthly sales (GMV, RM). Independents = livestream sales, short-video sales, profile/window sales, shop-tab sales, content volumes, produk sold, produk for sale, orders.
Validity / ethics: Administrative authenticity via official FAMA reporting; verification of totals and period alignment; programme-level associations only (no seller-level causal claims). Ethics: secondary official data; no personal survey collection.

Discussion & Contributions
Theoretical contribution. The findings extend RBV and Dynamic Keupayaan by showing that PKS social commerce performance depends on orchestrated platform ecosystem capability complementary monetisation channels plus conversion routines rather than digital adoption alone. This responds to Ammeran and Latip’s (2024) call for deeper organisational capability analysis while moving the unit of explanation from “technology use” to “monetised ecosystem execution”.
Managerial contribution. PKS and TikTok Shop sellers should invest in live conversion scripts, short-video demand generation, profile-window merchandising and order fulfilment reliability as a portfolio. Content volume without conversion design is insufficient. Platform providers and mentors should prioritise analytics-based coaching over generic “go live” training.
Policy contribution. For FAMA and digital economy agencies, AMTTSE demonstrates that public–platform partnerships can produce high ROI when training, marketplace activation, competitive events and monitoring are integrated. Skala-up should address regional concentration (Table 1) and seller heterogeneity (Table 5) through tiered mentorship, post-masterclass clinics and seller-level KPI dashboards.
Antarabangsa relevance. The model is transferable to emerging economies where governments partner with platform firms to accelerate PKS digital market access comparable to Indonesia’s social media PKS performance dynamics (Wibawa et al., 2022) and broader SEA social commerce expansion.
