At the same time, these enterprises also generate negative environmental<br />and health consequences. While facing this dilemmatic situation, the implementation of<br />environmental management measures (EMMs) to deal with environmental and health impacts<br />generated by the enterprises is not presently practical. We identified some potential barriers.<br />However, which one is the most influencing barrier to EMMs we must identify it. The study<br />attempts to understand perceptions of different group of randomly selected stakeholders on the<br />most influencing barriers given fourteen potential barriers to EMMs in Bangkok Metropolitan.<br />The analysis shows that there are four essential barriers as perceived by the stakeholders that<br />needs in-depth attention for the practical application of EMMs. By these critical barriers, policies<br />should be directed to cope appropriately with the issues to accomplish better performance<br />of shop-house enterprises in terms of environment and health.</p>}, number={1}, journal={International Journal of Built Environment and Sustainability}, author={Potipituk, Chantamon and Permana, Ariva Sugandi}, year={2014}, month={Nov.} }
