Chinese government pledges to step up crackdown on selling fake goods online
The State Administration for Industry and Commerce has pledged to intensify the crackdown on the sales of fake products online in China.The remarks by the regulator’s head, Zhang Mao, came after a high-profile spat between the government body and the e-commerce giant Alibaba earlier this year.“Market order can only be regulated if we increase the penalties for selling fake goods, making traders who sell such goods unable to continue operations, or go bankrupt,” Zhang said during a press briefing at the National People’s Congress in Beijing today.
