--FILE--Chinese workers labor at a logistics base of Chinese e-commerce retailer Suning Group, during the November 11 Singles' Day shopping spree or 11.11 Global Shopping Festival 2017 in Wuhan city, central China's Hubei province, 10 November 2017. China's first e-commerce law took effect on Tuesday with the aim of better protecting consumer interests. And that goal is regarded as °achievable, manageable and realizable, ± according to Li Wen, associate professor of law at China University of Political Science and Law. The law states that e-commerce operators are now defined as platform operators, such as Alibaba's Taobao, merchants on platforms, and those operating on their own websites or via other web services, like the messaging app WeChat. Further, all e-commerce platforms would need to obtain business licenses from the State Administration for Industry and Commerce. Additionally, e-commerce platforms would have to share joint responsibility with individual merchants in case of fake or low-quality goods being sold on their websites.
