What is the response from the China?
In response to India’s ban of 224 Chinese apps, spokesperson of the China’s ministry of commerce, Gao Feng said,
"India's action not only harms the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese investors and services providers but also harms the interests of Indian consumers while doing damage to India's investment climate as an open economy.”
He further stated, "China-India economic and trade cooperation yields mutual benefits.”
He concluded by saying, "We hope that the Indian side will work with the Chinese side to maintain hard-won bilateral cooperation and development so as to build an open and fair business environment for international investors and services providers including Chinese companies.
TikTok:
India is the top market for TikTok downloads in 2019 excluding Chinese Android downloads, with 323 million.
Indian users spend 38 minutes daily using TikTok.
