This is the right approach but does it really work practically? They would have to disassociate themselves from the active management of the business. But they can still pull strings for those businesses as government staff.
They cannot participate in discussions which related to policies which may have an impact on their businesses.

I saw a post on this forum that talked about the importance of politics in business. It is in situations like this that a business would realize the use of having political alignments.

That is the effect of envy, many are victims of this harming a business by people in authority. It happens anywhere in the world. In fact, it happens in my place a famous resto subjected to closure and they moved to another city and they are now prosperous.

It is part of the business cycle and you can't really blame the people that do this. The business world doesn't entertain sentiments and if there is a chance for another company to chase you out of business, they would do it without thinking twice.

That was what the owner of the kicked resto did shutting the business center right away, no more blah, blah and they moved to another city where there is fair and square of justice.

You just have to be proactive when you know you can't fight the powers that be. But some other business would fight it and even go to court to get their rights.

That must be what businessmen do rather than fitting those n power. They will be helpless. They have to face their ordeal and solve it peacefully. There are truly envious, haters and losers that want to harm people.

Some businesses have godfathers too that have a voice in the political circles. They can leverage on this this and fight those in government that are trying to fight them out of business.

That is so true and they are harmless, untouchables. No one dares to give them a bad shot or else, they will be sanctioned without due process. It is god to keep the mouth shut.

It is true that conflicts of interest are very detrimental to business. There will always be irresponsible competitors who will try to bring down our business. Even to the point that he made slander to damage the good reputation of the company.

That is what we call envy and jealousy. They have a grab mentality. So it will be better for the victim to move out from that place or give what the culprits want to obtain peace and start all over again.

That's right, something that damages mental health must be avoided. I had time to open an offline food stall, from being very busy until one day it was quiet. It turns out that someone said that someone was mean to us, using the help of a genie so that it would be seen by buyers that our stall looked like it was closed even though it was open.

It's happening anywhere in the world because of political sabotage. It's like the elimination of the unfit and the survival of the fittest. It's not a good influence to the young generation.

I think that such kind of business politics is quite common in many countries. Influential people use their influence and power. They also tend to manipulate the market as well to some extent as they hold the power to do so in the first place.
True. Unethical people who hold positions of influence tend to abuse their power by manipulating markets to their advantage.

In my country, a man who led a power generation company once orchestrated the release of water at the biggest hydroelectric dam. This way, the man created an artificial crisis of power shortage. He then imported power generators at exorbitant prices.

That was so horrible. Does your offline business still exists this time? You better had confronted that envious person. There's always competitor in business like my milk tea business business, beside my stall another business seller of milk tea, It's disgusting.

Influential people always use their influence to make small businesses go down. That is why small businesses need to have alignment with government officials and influential people not to be bullied.

The government of my country is very good in doing this kind of thing because they are not even making life easy for small businesses to grow and is very frustrating.

No, now I have given up on offline business. It's better that I work online so no one is jealous of me, because they don't know what I'm doing. Selling online, active online forums, online surveys. Everything is online, it's safer from jealous evil neighbors. :D

That's cool and why are there jealous neighbors? They better work. Teach them to work online. Give them your referrals. It's how to make friendship with our neighbors.

It is not even restricted to offline businesses alone. Big online brands still bully the small ones big time. The only saving grace is that those people have not infiltrated online business for now.
