JAKARTA - It seems that TikTok's problems with the government of the United States (US) are not over. Reportedly, the creative video service was given another week to find buyers for his company.

In fact, TikTok had to leave the US on November 27, but ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, was again given another week to convince the US government not to immediately ban it.

In addition, TikTok is still required to find companies wishing to acquire its operations in the US, as several proposals from the Chinese company have been repeatedly rejected by the government.

According to reports, TikTok should no longer be in the US by November 12, an initial deadline set by US President Donald Trump for the company to submit a proposal under which TikTok would have to sell its US operations to another US company.

However, whether because of the moment of the presidential election some time ago or not, when that date is getting closer, the government has become unclear without news. This of course makes TikTok wonder if they have been forgotten.

For several months, TikTok has been in talks with Walmart, Oracle and other US investors to strike deals to handle TikTok's US operations, including holding important data on US users.

ByteDance revealed that it had made four other proposals before November 10. But so far no company has been approved by Trump.

This of course leaves TikTok's fate in the dark, especially given the current uncertainty in US politics. However, the Trump administration itself is also running out of time before handing control over to the new administration.

Trump had previously made attempts to limit TikTok's operations in the US, but was immediately rejected by a federal court, which made this divestment strategy his last resort. This was reported by the South China Morning Post, Thursday, November 26.
