Abstract
In the previous chapter, we gave an overview of the formation of automobile supply chain in ASEAN, particularly in Thailand. In this chapter, we will analyze the characteristics of automobile supply chain in ASEAN. In this analysis, we will focus on the characteristics of Japanese automotive industry and special attributes of ASEAN region. Specifically, we will analyze the relationship between automobile manufacturers and their parts suppliers, particularly on a special relationship called “KEIRETSU”. Beyond just providing technical guidance, a wide range of relationships such as human resource training has been constructed in KEIRETSU. In this chapter, we will review related preceding studies in conducting this analysis.
