INTRODUCTION
Laudon and Laudon (Laudon, 1998) define electronic commerce as: "The
process of buying and selling goods electronically by consumers and from company to
company through computerized business transactions". From the definition above,
there are three main points in electronic commerce, namely first, the process of both
selling and purchasing electronically. Second, there are consumers or companies. Lastly,
the use of online computer networks to carry out business transactions. Air pollution or
also known as air pollution is a condition where there is one or more physical, chemical
or biological substances in the air (atmosphere) whose amounts are at a dangerous
point. In this case, air pollution can have an impact on the health of humans, plants and
animals. Apart from that, air pollution also causes other dangerous impacts, because it

can damage property and also disturb the aesthetics and comfort of the environment.
Air pollution is one type of environmental pollution, alongside noise pollution, water
pollution, light pollution and land pollution (Achjari, 2000).
Companies use e-commerce on various levels. There are those who only use email for certain areas, for example: it only applies to the sales section. But there are also
those who use web pages to display company profiles and products. Some companies
even use e-commerce in an integrated manner for all transactions, be it ordering,
payment to product delivery (Celestino, 1999). This can all be done, especially in selling
software that can be sent electronically via the internet network.
The definition of e-commerce according to Adi (Nugroho, 2006), e-commerce
(electronic commerce) is a way to sell and buy goods and services via the internet
network. Meanwhile, according to (Rahmati, 2009), ecommerce is an abbreviation of
Electronic Commerce, which means a marketing system using or using electronic media.
E-commerce includes distribution, sales, purchasing, marketing and service of a product
carried out in an electronic system such as the internet or other forms of computer
networks. E-commerce is not a service or a good, but is a combination of services and
goods(Rehatalanit, 2021). E-commerce and related activities via the internet can be a
driving force for improving the domestic economy through liberalizing domestic
services and accelerating integration with global production activities. Because ecommerce will integrate domestic trade with world trade, various forms of discussion
or negotiation will not only be limited to aspects of world trade, but also domestic
policies regarding supervision in a country, especially in the fields of
telecommunications, financial services, and shipping and distribution(Achjari, 2000).
Recently, there have been a number of e-commerce developments in Indonesia
such as Shopee, Lazada, Tokopedia, Bukalapak, and what has become a hot topic of
discussion recently is Tiktok shop. Tiktok Shop is a new feature of the Tiktok social
media which facilitates users to sell or buy a product where the product can be
advertised directly on the Tiktok account. This feature can be known as an online shop.
With its multi-functional position as social media and e-commerce, Tiktok Shop is
growing rapidly and has the potential to leave other e-commerce behind. According to
Momentum Works, in 2022 TikTok Shop will control 4.4% of the total e-commerce
market share in Southeast Asia. Then they projected that its share could increase to
13.2% in 2023. Momentum Works also believes that TikTok Shop could be a threat to
the main e-commerce players in this region, such as Shopee, Lazada and Tokopedia. In
such a short time, Tiktok Shop's market share is able to compete with e-commerce that
has been around for a long time. Apart from that, Tiktok Shop has a number of
advantages compared to a number of other e-commerce such as live video and live
broadcast features, massive injection of funds from TikTok, much cheaper imported

goods and so on. This rapid development certainly has a number of drawbacks,
including the weakening of buyers in traditional markets, the weakening of MSMEs and
grocery traders(Annur, 2023).
Because of this, the government imposed a temporary closure and ban on Tiktok
Shop so that it can adapt its business to other e-commerce such as separating social
media type applications from e-commerce, aligning with Indonesian regulations,
limiting imported goods, adjusting prices, and so on. can compete healthily like other ecommerce. This research aims to analyze this temporary prohibition from a Pancasila
perspective, especially the 5th principle of Pancasila.
RESEARCH METHOD
The temporary ban on TikTok shops is a good issue to research using qualitative
methods with a descriptive approach that discusses a number of issues one by one and
describes them in as much detail as possible(Sugiyono, 2019). The data used in this
research is secondary data obtained from books, scientific articles, trusted websites,
trusted data collections, and so on which can be trusted to be used as research
material(Jonathan Sarwono, 2016). The data used in this research was analyzed using
the stages of data collection, data selection, data reduction, and drawing
conclusions(Lexy J. Moleong, 2018).

Indonesia is a developed country and has quite good human resources, and is
encouraged by adequate education and professional teaching staff. With proper
education, it is hoped that it will be able to change the mindset, behavior and personal
qualities of the younger generation for the better. This will certainly have a positive
impact on the future of the nation and 131 Indonesian society. To support all the
aspects above, the world of education remains based on Pancasila which is the basis of
the Indonesian state and has very important noble values. In Pancasila education, the
subject of Civic Education is also included, which is an elaboration of the five precepts
accompanied by the values contained in each precept(Lestari et al., 2021).
The values contained in Pancasila include the first principle of Belief in One
Almighty God, the second principle of just and civilized humanity, the third principle of
Indonesian Unity, the fourth principle of Democracy which is led by wisdom in
representative deliberations, and the fifth principle of social justice for all Indonesian
people. According to (Regiani & Dewi, 2021), he explained that the fifth principle is
related to equal prosperity for all people, all wealth and some are used for collective
happiness and protecting the weak. In this study, the focus is on the fifth principle,
namely social justice for all Indonesian people in learning. The values contained in
Pancasila are important in life, especially in Indonesia, these values are used as a guide
for Indonesian society in acting, don't forget that in learning activities it must be related
to the values of justice in the school environment, this is the reason for researchers to
take the fifth principle as one of the guidelines for being fair in learning activities.The
aim of temporarily banning TikTok shops is to go hand in hand with the values
contained in the fifth principle which is closely related to justice and income
distribution, which will have a positive impact on the future of the nation. By banning
TikTok shops, the government is optimistic that food shops, MSMEs, other e-commerce
and so on will be more stable and produce healthy competition. The Indonesian
government hopes that Tiktok Sshop can continue to exist, but it must be accompanied
by more comprehensive regulations so as not to give rise to unhealthy competition like
before which will harm other parties(Aminullah, 2016).
CONCLUSION
Based on the results of the presentation above, the following points can be concluded:
1. The ban on Tiktok shops by the Indonesian government is due to unhealthy
competition because Tiktok shops are not pure e-commerce but are also social media,
prices are unreasonable, large quantities of imported goods, and so on which only
benefit a handful of parties.
