Cancel Meeting TikTok Boss This Week, Minister Teten: Possibly On The 20s

JAKARTA - Minister of Cooperatives and SMEs (Menkop UKM) Teten Masduki admitted that he had not held a meeting with TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew to discuss the continuation of the operation of TikTok Shop in Indonesia.

Previously, the discourse of this meeting was planned to be held this week. However, it has not been realized because of the tight agenda of Minister Teten in recent times.

"(Will meet) after the 20s," said Teten after being met at the Local Revolution Event in Jakarta, Friday, November 10.

Teten said the meeting could not be realized because there was no further desire from the TikTok itself.

"(There is no desire for TikTok), they are the ones who need it," he said.

The Minister of Cooperatives and SMEs (MenKopUKM) Teten Masduki said he would meet Tiktok CEO Shou Zi Chew this week.

"This week's plan. I was busy yesterday," said Teten Masduki to the media at the Bidakara Hotel, Tuesday, November 7.

Teten menyampaikan, pertemuan ini menjadi yang pertama kali setelah aplikasi TikTok mengikuti aturan Menteri Perdagangan (Mendag) Nomor 31 Tahun 2023 dengan menutup layanan penjualan atau TikTok Shop pada Oktober lalu.

Even so, Teten has not been able to tell whether a meeting with TikTok CEO will discuss the re-operation of the TikTok SHop service.

"We don't know yet, we'll listen to it first," he said.
