Vietnam has suspended Chinese online retailer Temu for failing to register by the end of November. Temu, part of China's Pinduoduo, faces scrutiny in the country over its cheap goods' authenticity and potential effects on local businesses. The suspension followed a government warning that Temu's app and website would be blocked if the compliance deadline was overlooked.
Temu said it is collaborating with Vietnamese authorities to complete its registration. The company, which entered the Vietnamese market in October, had been offering significant discounts and free shipping. In efforts to comply, Temu removed Vietnamese language options from its website and declared it is "working with the Vietnam E-commerce and Digital Economy Agency and the Ministry of Industry and Trade to register." Meanwhile, Temu is under investigation in Europe amid accusations of not curbing the sale of illegal products. (This story was generated by Newser's AI chatbot. Source: the AP)
