Modern Approaches to Establishing Trust in Business: A Study of Taiwanese Companies Operating in Southeast Asia

Guides & Tools

Countries and communities are increasingly turning to the private sector as both a key constituency and a problem solver in addressing complex social and economic challenges; thus, increasing trust in business is essential. To inform and inspire, the Center for International Private Enterprise (CIPE) partnered with the Chinese National Federation of Industries (CNFI), the largest and most influential business association in Taiwan, to identify six Taiwanese businesses driving positive change by developing products and policies that address modern challenges.

The featured companies – MSK Group, Kenda Rubber Ind. Co., Ltd, New Wide Group, Cal-Comp Electronics (Thailand) Public Company Limited, DaChan, and Lovetex Industrial Corp – span sectors including textile, rubber, electronics, agribusiness, and construction with operations in Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam. Despite diverse industries and operating environments, they share a common approach: they invest long-term, operate responsibly, and embed trust-building into their core business strategies.
