The “Competition Caravan” is a major advocacy initiative of CCP aimed at raising awareness and understanding of the Competition Law to help create a compliant business culture. During this Road Show, a wide array of stakeholders including multinational corporations, national companies, professional bodies as well as small and medium enterprises, are being approached for the purpose of advocacy. The Road Show has elicited massive response of the business community as CCP has received several more request from other business bodies for their inclusion in the Road Show. Moreover a large number of complaints concerning competition issues are being raised during these advocacy sessions. The local and national media has been particularly supportive by giving coverage to the Road Show events thus facilitating the dissemination of information to the general public.
