Shopee faces boycott calls in Philippines over brand ambassador Toni Gonzaga

SINGAPORE (Bloomberg): Sea Limited's e-commerce business Shopee faces boycott calls from Philippine consumers after naming a staunch supporter of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr as its brand ambassador.

Shopee announced on Thursday (Sept 29) that Filipina actress and singer Toni Gonzaga (pic), who hosted campaign rallies for Marcos, was its new brand ambassador. This led to calls on social media to stop using the shopping app.
