According to Nguyen Viet Dung, Deputy Director of provincial Market Control Department, the rapid development of e-commerce has led to an increase in the sale of prohibited goods, counterfeit goods, intellectual property infringements, and goods of unclear origin on websites and social media platforms (Facebook, Zalo, TikTok, etc.)... This has significantly affected the business environment, consumers’ rights and interests.

However, detecting and handling violations involving counterfeit, fake, and unclear origin goods in the electronic environment poses many challenges. Therefore, this training session aims at raising awareness and unifying the actions of the local market control forces and related entities in monitoring, detecting, combating e-commerce violations and protecting consumers.
