    This study examines the relationship between Protestantism and the Coho Chil economy using qualitative methods to analyze data from fieldwork in the Coho Chil Protestant communities of Lam Dong Province. The research shows that Protestantism has a positive impact on the economy of the Coho Chil community. This impact is manifested in casting out superstitious and magical practices and in applying economic rationalization. The Protestant doctrine and sermons by clergy have influenced the thinking of the people and their economic performance. Protestantism creates a social network and social capital that not only influences their economic life, but also provides timely material support for Christians in need. This paper serves as an additional resource for research related to the relationship between religion and the economy – an intriguing topic that is not found in much previous research in Vietnam.This study examines the relationship between Protestantism and the Coho Chil economy using qualitative methods to analyze data from fieldwork in the Coho Chil Protestant communities of Lam Dong Province.

    Get PDF
    Choosing the path of proletarian revolution to liberate the nation, emancipate classes, and liberate people, Ho Chi Minh has placed top attention on changing and developing the country's education, considering it the basic foundation to change ideologies, awaken the national consciousness among the people, and make the revolution a complete success. Ho Chi Minh emphasized the role of education, considering it as one of the factors determining the success of realizing the goal of building a new Vietnam. Inheriting and applying Ho Chi Minh's thought in the cause of renewal, the Communist Party of Vietnam has always paid attention to building and developing education to meet the requirements of industrialization and modernization of the country. In the period of international economic integration, meeting the requirements of the fourth industrial revolution, the training of high-quality human resources has become even more urgent. Ho Chi Minh's thought on education has become more and more practical in training, developing and using quality human resources to serve the country's socio-economic goals, and realize the goal of "rich people, a strong country, equal, democratic and civilized society".

    MODELLING AND FORECASTING VOLATILITY BY GARCH-TYPE MODELS: THE CASE OF VIETNAM STOCK EXCHANGE

    Get PDF
    A number of previous studies have been devoted to investigate properties of volatility in emerging markets. In attempt to contribute to literature, this dissertation examines stock return volatility in Vietnam stock market. The empirical investigation is conducted by means of alternative GARCH models including both symmetric and asymmetric models with a data set of VN-Index over six years period from March, 2002 to March, 2008. The findings present the inappropriateness of asymmetric GARCH in modelling Vietnam stock return volatility. The results also provide evidence of the superiority of GARCH (1,1) and GARCH (2,1) over the other GARCH models. However, the excess kurtosis and skewness in residual series of Vietnam stock return are still reveal even with the best-performing GARCH models. Moreover, we detect the risk-reward relation in the Vietnam stock market by GARCH-M model. Regarding the forecasting capability, the results favour the GARCH (1,1) and GARCH (2,1). The findings are evidenced by three different measures used to evaluate the forecasting accuracy, though these statistics fail to present the clear distinction between the best models in forecasting

    COUNTERFEITS AND THEIR COSTS

    Get PDF
    Counterfeiting is increasing and becoming a complicated issue across different countries in the world and Vietnam is not exceptional, so the policy makers and managers always try to find ways to face with the counterfeiting and reduce counterfeit products in the market. This paper attempts to investigate determinants that impact on consumers’ attitude toward non-deceptive counterfeit products and behavioral intention to purchase them. Using a data set collected from a sample of 176 consumers we found that social cost has an impact on consumers’ attitude and purchase intentiontoward counterfeit products. Moreover, the result indicates that intention to buy counterfeit products is influenced by consumers’ attitude toward these products. These findings suggest that companies should rely on the social cost as the main component of marketing communication messages to discourage consumption of fake products by implying the seriously harmful consequences of these goods to society and economy

    This study used data collection methods, expert methods, and methods of synthesizing, processing, and analyzing data and maps and charts, with a management and practical approach combined with an approach from a cultural perspective. The research results show that the Southwest urban area project in Nhon Ly commune has 1,100 graves affected, with 78.93% of the cemetery and graveyard land area recovered. People whose graves are subject to relocation will be compensated, supported with graves, architectural objects, and grave moving expenses, and will be allocated land to build graves in the reburial area. Interview results show that 100% of people are satisfied with the evaluation criteria of implementation personnel, process, time, and grave relocation plan. However, the standard deviation CS1, CS2 with CV>1 shows that households' opinions on compensation and support costs do not have a high consensus. On the other hand, the project is behind schedule. The study has proposed solutions that have implications for supplementing legal policies and law enforcement organizations to improve the effectiveness of cemetery and graveyard land clearance in the study area.Nghiên cứu này sử dụng phương pháp thu thập số liệu, phương pháp chuyên gia, phương pháp tổng hợp, xử lý, phân tích số liệu và bản đồ, biểu đồ, với cách tiếp cận dưới góc độ quản lý, thực tiễn kết hợp tiếp cận dưới góc độ văn hóa. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy, dự án khu đô thị Tây Nam xã Nhơn Lý có 1.100 mộ bị ảnh hưởng, với 78,93% diện tích đất nghĩa trang, nghĩa địa bị thu hồi. Người có mồ mả thuộc diện di dời được bồi thường, hỗ trợ mồ mả, vật kiến trúc, chi phí di chuyển mồ mả, đồng thời được giao đất xây dựng mồ mả tại khu cải táng. Kết quả phỏng vấn cho thấy, 100% người dân hài lòng với các tiêu chí đánh giá về nhân sự thực hiện, quy trình, thời gian và kế hoạch di dời mồ mả. Tuy nhiên, độ lệch chuẩn CS1, CS2 với CV>1 cho thấy ý kiến các hộ dân về chi phí bồi thường, hỗ trợ chưa có sự đồng thuận cao. Mặt khác, dự án chậm tiến độ. Nghiên cứu đã đề xuất các giải pháp, trong đó có hàm ý bổ sung chính sách pháp luật và tổ chức thực thi pháp luật nhằm nâng cao hiệu quả công tác giải phóng mặt bằng đất nghĩa trang, nghĩa địa tại địa bàn nghiên cứu

Their chemical structures were elucidated by means of ESI-MS, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, HSQC, HMBC spectra and in comparison with the previous literature. To our best knowledge, this is the first report of 1 and 3 from P. integrifolia

    Establishment of a ground surface temperature map for climate change response on the basis of Landsat 8 OLI satellite images

    Get PDF
    In recent years, in Vietnam, there have been studies using the thermal infrared channel to estimate the surface temperature value, studies using Plank's formula to estimate the surface temperature value from the thermal infrared channel without using the surface emissivity, using the emissivity as a common constant for coating objects [1 – 4]. In the area of Bim Son town – Thanh Hoa province – Vietnam, along with the process of urbanization as well as socio-economic development, the quality of the urban environment, surface coverage by plants and use activities have been greatly affected, especially the limestone mining for cement of one of the largest cement plants in the country (Bim Son cement plant) has had a significant impact on the temperature of the area. The monitoring results have not provided an overview of the temperature background of the whole area of Bim Son town in the period of 2017-2023 in order to assess the change in the temperature background of the region, thereby providing solutions to respond to climate change. The article uses Landsat 8 OLI satellite images to establish a surface heat map for the assessment of climate change for the area of Bim Son – Thanh Hoa, thereby making more general assessments for other areas in Vietnam. The experimental results were compared and evaluated to show the relevance of the data as well as the image processing process
