Consumer protection must be more than just day in spotlight

March 15 is Consumer Rights Protection Day, and on Saturday China Media Group broadcast its annual gala exposing a series of practices infringing on consumer rights.

Following the CMG report, market regulatory authorities in multiple regions launched overnight enforcement actions. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology also promptly organized investigations into the implicated entities by communications administrations in related places.

Consumer rights protection is not only the foundation for maintaining fair market competition but also a key factor in stimulating consumption potential and promoting the growth of domestic demand.
