Abstract

The government requires enterprises to have adequate corporate social responsibility (CSR) and as such must prepare CSR reports to detail the avoidance of improperly obtained profits. Selling price is no longer the sole factor of purchase behavior to ensure that customers acquire better goods and a higher quality of service. The corporate image of enterprises within an industry has become the key factor of purchase behavior. Therefore, the implementation of CSR will not only affect corporate image, but also affect customer satisfaction and loyalty.

This paper attempts to investigate whether or not CSR serves to enhance corporate image, customer satisfaction and loyalty in the telecommunication industry. After the questionnaire process was completed, regression studies were used to test the hypotheses. The results show that the implementation of CSR in the telecommunication industry has a positive impact on corporate image, customer satisfaction and loyalty.
