Chinese video sharing app TikTok has promised to put more resources in Pakistan to improve its services after the authorities here blocked it over "indecent content", a media report said on Sunday. ByteDance, the Chinese company that owns TikTok, regretted that its services remain suspended in Pakistan more than a week after the country's telecommunication authority banned it over its contents, the Express Tribune reported. "TikTok’s mission is to inspire creativity and joy, and that's just what we've done in Pakistan. The company said its users and creators in Pakistan are still unable to access TikTok, more than one week after our services were blocked by the PTA. "After TikTok was blocked in Pakistan, we continued to engage with the PTA to demonstrate our commitment to comply with local laws and further enhance our content moderation capacity," ByteDance further said.
