Abstract

How much corporate social responsibility should Australian companies practise if and when they enter Myanmar? Should there be additional obligations placed on Australian firms over and above expecting their compliance with any (voluntary) international codes of conduct under the United Nations or the OECD? Should Australian firms operating in Myanmar be expected to conform with reporting requirements by the Australian Government, as US firms are expected to do for the State Department? Should Australian firms be encouraged to go through an “education” process about responsible business in Myanmar, as British firms are to by the Foreign Office? Are there other ways of getting better business behaviour in a “regulation free zone” like Myanmar, or will market-driven international companies be able exploit loopholes in Myanmar laws?
