In this research, we reviewed electricity liberalization policies undertaken by major South East Asian countries (The Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam). We also extracted core performance indicators of electricity sectors. We extracted the lessons which can be applied to the Japanese electric industry, in restructuring via unbundling electricity generation, transmission and distribution. The important implication is that unbundling of electricity generation, transmission, and distribution from the present regionally monopolized system, and the creation of a bigger and more open transmission grid with larger regions, will be necessary to ensure fair competition on an equal footing, and to further promote the introduction of renewable energy. However, there are several issues needed to be considered, such as final supply responsibility and investment for electricity facilities.
