The trend of Foreign Direct Investment has changed by the shift of FDI inflows from the developed world to the developing world that has been happening for decades. In the world of countries developing their potential, Myanmar and Cambodia emerged as newly open markets and among the most ideal FDI destinations in ASEAN region. Both countries share similarities in political situation, economic development and human capital.
This thesis aims at analyzing and comparing these countries to discover which country offers more competitive and efficient investment environment for efficiency-seekers in the manufacturing sector in terms of vertical FDI. The objective directs the formulation of the theoretical framework, including vertical FDI, efficiency-seeking FDI intention and the manufacturing sector, which helps build the list of criteria for analysis and comparison process. Empirical research and analysis is conducted using Pestle analysis tool and decision making matrix.
The research is conducted using primarily secondary data by means of archival research approach. Moreover, deductive and descriptive research methods are exploited in conjunction with qualitative research method to systematically set the framework, identify the criteria and analyze the markets to generate desired results.
The findings fulfil the research objective and provide reliable and valuable consultative sources for investment decision-making. The results and recommendations are beneficial study sources for further research such as product-based or industry-based research projects in the given countries.
