While the application of CSR is no longer new to the developed markets, it is unfortunately not the case in developing nations. In particular, Vietnam has seen a mixture of promising and volatile results concerning this topic. Consequently, this thesis was carried out by Mr. Trung Tin Tran to answer the questions of how the CSR situation in Vietnam is currently looking.
With that goal set in mind, this thesis topic was tackled by a qualitative approach, in which five case companies were analyzed in terms of their CSR perceptions and strategies. The information for these researches was collected from the companies’ official website, annual report, CSR report and third parties’ resources.
In conclusion, the thesis contains a general discussion on the topic of CSR, as well as CSR in developing nations. The most important part of the thesis discusses the perception of five Vietnamese and international enterprises on the topic of CSR and their strategies. The result from this research concludes that the current CSR situation in Vietnam is not all grim but rather contains some very promising signs. The author also points out some solutions to the down side of the CSR situation in Vietnam. Further study on this subject can tackle either CSR practices in Vietnamese SMEs.
