BANGKOK: An e-commerce expert has raised concerns over TikTok’s growing dominance in Thailand’s e-commerce sector. He warned that the platform’s practices are bordering on monopolistic and could severely impact local entrepreneurs and logistics providers.
Pawoot Pongvitayapanu, a pioneer of Thai e-commerce and founder of TARAD.com, who also serves as CEO of Pay Solutions, pointed out that US tariffs on Chinese goods may lead to a flood of low-quality Chinese products entering Thailand via e-commerce platforms.
