Direct peers

• Thailand Office of Trade Competition Commission (OTCC): Thailand's trade competition commission, operating under the Trade Competition Act B.E. 2560 (2017). ASEAN regional peer with comparable mandate and active participation in AEGC alongside MyCC.
• Singapore Competition and Consumer Commission (CCCS): Singapore's national competition regulator enforcing the Competition Act 2004 with similar mandate over anti-competitive agreements, abuse of dominance, and market studies. Closest regional peer given geographic proximity, comparable economy structure, and recent (2025-2026) cross-border cooperation activity referenced in MyCC materials.
• Korea Fair Trade Commission (KFTC): South Korea's national competition regulator, which signed a cooperation MoU with MyCC in September 2025. While larger and more mature, KFTC shares the same core mandate (anti-competitive agreements, abuse of dominance, market reviews) and serves as the most recent bilateral counterpart of MyCC's enforcement cooperation network.
• Philippine Competition Commission (PCC): The Philippines' national competition authority enforcing the Philippine Competition Act, established later than MyCC (2015) but with substantively equivalent mandate. Both agencies participate actively in the ASEAN Experts Group on Competition (AEGC) and have comparable enforcement scope across commercial sectors.
• Indonesia Competition Commission (KPPU): Indonesia's national competition authority enforcing Law No. 5/1999 on anti-competitive practices. Direct regional peer in ASEAN AEGC alongside MyCC with similar enforcement scope, market review practice, and statutory framework established a decade before MyCC.

• UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA): United Kingdom's primary competition regulator, with significant digital markets regulatory leadership through its Digital Markets Unit. Functions relevant as a benchmark in digital platform regulation (an area MyCC is now entering with its Digital Economy Ecosystem Market Review).
• Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC): Australia's well-established combined competition and consumer protection regulator with substantially broader scope and resources than MyCC, but comparable core functions in cartel enforcement, merger review, and market studies. Frequently cited as a global best-practice benchmark for competition agencies in the Asia-Pacific region.
• Japan Fair Trade Commission (JFTC): Japan's national competition authority established in 1947, with substantially deeper institutional history than MyCC. Directly comparable enforcement mandate and active multilateral participant alongside MyCC in EATOP and ICN forums.
