Indomie drawn in taiwan. Very surprising. In your opinion, is a trade war, or indeed any content of preservative in the noodles.

I think it is a trade war. Indomie is getting a lot of grounds here in Papua New Guinea, because it is so cheaper than the brand name we have here, Maggie. It is a trade war or simply a competition struggle.

Yes. I also have the same thoughts with you. Indomie price is cheaper. So Indomie more desirable.

I think this is because of the war the market, because prices are Indomie, is cheaper than the price of Taiwan-made noodles.

I also think this is a trade war. No one knows the real problem. Now this problem, have not heard again. And I do not know, how this problem can be ended.

i think indomie was good in sales in taiwan because of our workers. they prefer indomie than taiwan's noodle because they already know the brand. so i think it's a kind of trade war.

Your Indomie is quite popular in my country. Though I am not a great fan of instant noodles but surprisingly Indomie can easily tame my appetite.

hi indahfth just for the sake of us who are not Indian or taiwan or other countries what is Indomie, sounds like a food or brand of food? a brand of noddles I suppose? I hope for the sake of those who eat this that the preservative is digestible ? I love noodles myself and pasta tool

Yes. Indomie, is the instant noodle product. I also really like instant noodle. I know, every instant foods must contain preservatives. As consumers, we should not consume excessive.

I think there are two possibilities that the first Taiwan government may not market the production of Indonesia,either in terms of what that reason was, and that the two could have possibly have preservatives that should not be consumed bby humans because it will disturb the health, which is very surprising if it's true why do contain material that is harmful to health, why in Indonesia does not sound if the production of instant noodles withdrawn from circulation or whatever reason was
