#272 - Uniqlo defends decision to stay in Russia & Gojek driver clashes with dog owner about cancellation of ride


Listen Later

Against the overwhelming trend of corporations pulling out of or cutting business ties with Russia, Uniqlo doubled down on its decision to keep its almost-50 stores open in the country. The CEO even justified the decision by stating that clothing is a basic human need. Does their explanation have any merit? Closer to home, a pair of dog owners refused to cancel their Gojek booking after the driver rejected them because of their pets. He filmed their heated interaction, which has since gone viral and has divided opinion online. Who’s in the wrong?
