It is crucial to pay attention to the level of the economy of a country. This is because it will affect the life of people. Economic gowth plays a vital role to preserve the prosperity of the citizen. Gross domestic product is a standard measure that being used to monitor the growth. Macroeconomic variables help to increase and improve the economy of a region. The macroeconomic variables used by the researcher in this study are export, import, foreign direct investment, inflation and interest rate. The main purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between each macroeconomic variable and economic growth in the major ASEAN countries (Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippine and Myanmar).
