Earlier this year, the new leaders of the Business Competition Supervisory Commission (KPPU) published their initiative to achieve their work targets which consisted of three main sectors, namely energy (oil and gas), digital markets, and food security. In terms of digital markets, as we all know, prior to the appointment of the new leaders, the KPPU has started an investigation into Google. Then, the new leaders announced that it had completed an investigation into Shopee. The trial on the allegations against Shopee started in May 2024 and interestingly Shopee admitted to their wrongdoings. Recently, the reported parties signed a consent decree, but this is not the end of the investigation. In another case, Google failed to meet their agreement in the consent decree, therefore, the trial on the allegations against the company continues.To subscribe please click here
