CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR) is a term describing a company’s obligation to be accountable to all of its stakeholder in all its operation and activities.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a public accepted standard for referencing the daily operation of a business which emphasises sustainability. It is not about how a business spends their money, it is about the way it makes profit. Business with CSR will gain their positive image in customers’ mind as CSR is not a law or rule that company must need to follow.

In the recent years, corporate social responsibility (CSR) has gained lots of attentions among public, and plenty of companies invest more efforts on the CSR activities (Hur, Kim and Woo, 2013). At the same time, companies can undertake their social responsibility in different ways, namely, CSR has some classifications, and most of scholars accept that there are three main classifications of CSR, which are related to social, economic and environmental issues. The reason why companies do CSR activities is that the pressure of the economy, society and environment enforce the company to take economic, social and environmental consequences of their business into account (Alsmadi & Alnawas, 2012). What’s more, companies are able to gain benefits by undertaking social responsibility from the CSR activities. Positive brand image is the most vital benefit of CSR since it provides competitive advantage by having consumer commitment, which will give consumers’ high purchase intention and willingness to pay higher price for product or service (Mohr and Webb, 2005; S.M.M. et al, 2013). Ghosh and Das (2013) find out that companies are trying continuously to maintain and improve their brand image, because the positive brand image contributes to the competitive advantages and superior market share. And the positive brand image can influence customers’ purchasing behaviors since consumers prefer to choose the companies that have the good brand image (Maignan and Ferrell 2001). For instance,

Notably, the ideals which Friedman (1962) clearly stressed: ‘Few trends could so thoroughly undermine the very foundations of our free society as the acceptance by corporate officials of a social responsibility other than to make as much money for their stockholders as possible’ (p.133). He argued the desideratum of any other social responsibility for businessmen other than that of making maximum profits for their stockholders to exist. He reasoned the unavailability of determinant factors of such social responsibilities, taking into account that it is neither efficient nor reliable to enforce nebulous social responsibilities on corporations. Consequently, they opine that the concept of CSR is inimical to sound business practices and strays away from the basics of wealth creation (Clement-Jones, 2005; Murray, 2005; Jamli and Sidani, 2008).
