In his discussion held with the management of PD Pasar Jaya, Teten saw various possibilities for the emptiness of Tanah Abang market. "Earlier we discussed whether it was because they didn't transform from selling in the market to online. But it turns out that even selling online, they still can't compete," he said.

According to him, the lack of visitors to Tanah Abang Market is due to the competitiveness of the products sold compared to imported products in e-commerce. In terms of price, imported products are often sold much lower than local products in the market.

"So this offline market defeat, like in Tanah Abang, is not about losing to online sales, because they have also tried selling online. But I conclude that the products sold by them cannot compete because there are imported products being sold at very cheap prices."
"Clearly."

"Previously, Teten revealed that many MSMEs and local businesses were severely affected by the influx of imported products. One of the reasons is the significantly cheaper price offered by imported products from China. Teten noted that the ease of regulations governing the entry of imported products has led to a flood of imported products into the country. Furthermore, Teten stated that the low import duties also seem to facilitate the entry of foreign products."

"It is too easy for imported goods to enter Indonesia. The import duty rates for consumer goods here are too cheap, let alone micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), even manufactured industrial products cannot compete,""

he said to the media, Saturday 16 September 2023.

Teten conveyed that among the products that entered include garments, cosmetics, sports shoes, and pharmaceutical products. "Moreover, currently China's economy is weakening, its consumer goods production is oversupplied, dumped into ASEAN, especially us because our market is large and almost half of our population has entered e-commerce," he said.

"Beaten to a pulp. 80 percent of SMEs selling on ecommerce and social commerce platforms are only sellers of imported products, especially from China."
