Abstract
Multinational enterprises (MNEs) are key players in sustainable development. The ASEAN region represents an area of the planet of significant ecological value but hosting a large number of MNEs. Japanese MNEs are significant players in the region, with Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia (VTI) representing the top three host nations. This study looks at how the Japanese MNEs work with sustainability related laws in VTI, and the challenges in meeting the requirements. It was found that in a majority of cases in this research, large Japanese MNEs operated at higher compliance levels than those required in the host nation. This implies that the host nation sustainability regulations could be tightened without threatening the economic benefits Japanese MNEs bring to them.
