The professional teams of relevant ministries and agencies that worked together with the telecommunication companies to ban PUBG and TikTok presented their work result and reports about banning the two applications in the country.

The Ministry said that after many discussions and negotiations, in coordination with the representatives of the telecommunication networks, it was decided to set a deadline of one month to ban TikTok and three months to ban the PUBG application.
