This research uses the secondary data during the period of 1996-2015 by using the Panel Data model.

The gap of this research is to connect the macroeconomic factor (Broad Money, Economic Development, labor force, exchange rate, industry, transport service) that has an affect on Foreign Direct Investment. The result of the research shows that the macroeconomic factors have positive effect in ASEAN 5 countries, China and Japan as Home Country, as well as Host Country.

The policy implication of this research is to suggest the monetary authority, government or private, to supervise the direct investment flow that enters the host countries.
