ABSTRACT Over the last decade, many countries have demonstrated remarkable development in their competition regimes, and the regimes of the Member States of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) are no exception. Since effective competition policy for the digital economy has become an important topic across the world, it is time to discuss desirable guidance for digital competition law and policy in the ASEAN region. There are notable obstacles to providing digital policy guidance for the ASEAN Member States. Most Member States have distinctive objectives of competition law, such as associating the non-economic goals of fair competition with unique substantive rules on unfair trade practices. Moreover, the dissimilar level of law enforcement among the Member States requires ASEAN to provide applicable standards for the appraisal of conduct in digital cases so as not to distort competition in the ASEAN region. This article aims at providing suggestions for ASEAN guidelines for the digital economy, which has not been discussed before, by analysing the cases and legislation in several competition regimes.
