JAKARTA - India has recently blocked access to 54 mobile apps, mainly those from China. The country's government source told Reuters, the blocking or ban was done for security reasons.

Cash, the Indian government's decision made the Chinese government angry. On Thursday, February 17, Beijing immediately expressed its very serious concern about the ban by the Indian government on the application of Chinese products for security reasons.

Reported by Reuters, Beijing also added that it hopes India will treat all foreign investors, including Chinese companies, in a transparent, fair, and non-discriminatory manner.

"We hope India can take concrete steps to maintain the good development momentum of bilateral economic and trade cooperation," Gao Feng, spokesman for the Ministry of Commerce, said at a press conference.

China and India, two of the most populous countries in the world, have had disharmonious political relations. Especially regarding the area of Tibet which makes the two countries always at odds.

If we add a ban on Chinese applications that are accused of spying on the Indian people, then the relationship between the two is sure to get even more complicated.

But this is not the first time that Chinese app products have been banned in other countries. Previously the United States had banned Huawei and blacklisted it on suspicion of being used to spy on the US.
