Admitting Business Affected by the Closure of Tik Tok Shop, Luna Maya Still Supports Government Decision

Kapanlagi.com - Tik Tok Shop has officially closed on Wednesday (4/10/2023). This makes consumers unable to shop on the popular social media platform anymore.

The decision issued by the Ministry of Trade (Kemendag) has impacted Luna Maya's business. It cannot be denied that her business relies heavily on it.

"If you ask whether it has an impact? It does have an impact, because many of our orders come from Tik Tok Shop," said Luna, who was met in Sudirman, Central Jakarta, on Thursday (5/10/2023).

1. Supporting the Decision of the Minister of Trade

Although the business is affected by the closure of Tik Tok Shop, Luna Maya expressed support for the decision of Minister of Trade Zulkifli Hasan. Because after finding out the root of the problem, it has been proven to help the movement of local businesses.

"But honestly, I support the government because I believe that this is actually to protect us as Indonesian society. We definitely find out the situation, oh, it turns out the story is like this. Because I know, so I just support," said Maxime Bouttier's girlfriend.

2. Unhealthy Price Competition

Furthermore, Luna Maya admitted that there is unhealthy competition with the presence of foreign products with cheaper prices but equivalent quality. So Luna feels helped by the existing decision.

"As a local business player, I feel there is also protection because until now there have been many super cheap products that we cannot compete with. Sometimes in terms of quality, they are equally good, and our customers are spoiled by those prices. Yesterday it was a bit unhealthy with the price war, so those of us who are really doing business, we know what price is suitable for customers, sometimes we have to sacrifice because of the competition," Luna emphasized.
