Policies to mobilize financial resources from corporates to develop the new countryside in Vietnam
Over the past years in Vietnam, corporates have been identified as a key and essential source for mobilizing investments in building a New Countryside (NC). The Party and the State have implemented preferential policies regarding finance, land, taxation, and credit to encourage corporations to invest in agriculture and rural areas. The mobilization of financial resources from corporates for NC construction over the past decade has significantly contributed to infrastructure development, and rural economic growth, and assisted localities in meeting NC construction criteria. However, the financial resources mobilized by corporates for NC construction remain limited, with a low mobilization rate compared to other sources. Despite comprehensive policies to incentivize corporates to invest in agriculture and rural areas, corporates are still hesitant to do so. Barriers still exist in institutions, policies, and incentives for mobilizing resources and encouraging corporations to invest in agriculture and rural areas. Investing in agriculture and rural areas carries inherent risks due to the dependence of agricultural products on natural conditions, underdeveloped rural infrastructure, low-profit margins, and slow capital recovery. This has affected the results of mobilizing financial resources from corporates for NC construction, necessitating innovative policies aligned with practical realities to enhance investment efficiency for corporates. This article examines the issue of mobilizing financial resources from corporates for NC construction and proposes improvement solutions
STATE BUDGET ALLOCATION POLICY FOR NEW RURAL CONSTRUCTION IN VIETNAM
Developing rural areas is an essential task in the socio-economic development process in countries. The state's role in rural development is critical, as reflected in the investment of funds and the promulgation of rural development policy institutions. Depending on the specific circumstances of countries, the state invests funds from the state budget for rural development in different measures and ways. Through investing large amounts of money and promulgating policies on budget allocation, management, and use, rural areas in many countries have made essential developments. In Vietnam, allocating the state budget to serve the construction of new rural areas is an essential macro policy of the state to invest in infrastructure, develop the rural economy, eliminate hunger and poverty, improve material life, and raise the spirit of the people. The state has issued a policy to allocate resources from the state budget for new rural construction to comprehensively implement new rural criteria, creating a premise to attract capital from other areas. However, in recent years, allocating the state budget for new rural construction in Vietnam has faced challenges because the need for investment capital for new rural construction is substantial; while the state budget is limited, attracting investment from other areas still needs improvement. State budget allocation policies need to be innovated so that funds allocated from the state budget are concentrated and practical, meeting the funding needs for long-term and sustainable new rural construction. This article addresses the issue of state budget allocation policies for new rural construction and proposes a complete solution
A qualitative study
Objectives
The main objective of this study was to explore if there are any variations in how different generations of the educational sector in Vietnam perceive their work-life balance. This main object was achieved by firstly critically reviewing existing literature on cross-generational work-life balance situations, secondly conducting interviews with teachers of the research generations about the concept, and lastly by analyzing and interpreting the collected data.
Summary
This study examines the effects of factors of generational differences on how people among those generations perceive work-life balance, focusing upon educational sector in Vietnam. The literature review explains and defines work-life balance as well as generational differences in workforces; it also discusses the teaching profession in Vietnam and applies the mentioned work-life balance perceptions on this particular sector. In-depth opinions are introduced by analyzing data conducted from qualitative interviews with Vietnamese teachers.
Conclusions
A certain level of difference is diagnosed between the two generations Millennials and Baby Boomers in perceiving work-life balance, and the younger generation tends to pay more attention to the concept that the other one. These perceptions are largely influenced by big social events of the country that only the Boomer generation experienced. In addition, it was concluded that Baby Boomers have higher work ethics compared to the young and show more respect towards authorities in the work hierarchy as well as appreciation towards their work. However, Millennials believe that they are working smarter than Baby Boomers, instead of having to work harder
Policy of mobilizing financial resources for developing new countryside in Vietnam
Financial resources and the institutional framework, as well as policies for mobilizing financial resources, are important issues that need to be addressed in the construction of new countryside in Vietnam. Financial resources for the new countryside mainly come from the state budget, credit sources, investments from enterprises, contributions, and support from organizations, individuals, and the local community. In recent years, the state has paid attention to financial investment and issued policies to mobilize financial resources for the new countryside. Through these policies, Vietnam's rural areas have achieved important results, with rural areas being renewed, the economy being developed, and the living standards of the people being improved. However, statistical analysis and research results show that, alongside the achievements, financial resources for new countryside have not yet satisfied the needs, and the policies for mobilizing resources are sluggish to innovate and have neither fully exploited the potential of rural areas nor effectively mobilized resources from the state and society. The state budget resources for investing in the new countryside are limited, and the investment resources from enterprises have yielded low results. Contributions from the people and the local community are voluntary and have not become the main resources mobilized for the new countryside. Based on the research results, the author proposes some solutions to improve the policies for mobilizing financial resources for the new countryside in Vietnam
An aromaticity view of proton transfer in ground state and excited state
Fluorescence spectroscopy field has evolved tremendously over the past 50 years and still developing. Now with the advance of computational calculation, we are able to understand more about photophysical processes and invent new ideas and designs. We use the approach of applying aromaticity experimentally and theoretically to understand the chemical processes in the ground state and excited state of chromophores. Chapter 2 of this dissertation focuses on how aromaticity effects the hydrogen transfer in Schiff bases, hence change the enol-keto equilibrium. We created quinoxaline and benzothiadiazole Schiff base systems where competing resonance-assisted hydrogen bonding can happen and that allows us to gauge the effect of aromaticity change to the proton transfer. Our results confirm the dominance of aromaticity in determining the tautomeric equilibrium.
Chapter 3 of this dissertation looks at the less red-shift emission of hydroxy- naphthylbenzoxazoles compared to hydroxy-phenylbenzoxazoles. In contrast to the common notion that expansion of π-conjugation generally leads to a more red-shift absorbance and emission wavelengths, we found that less aromaticity in ground state S0 leads to less antiaromaticity in the first excited state S1, and hence less red-shift emission will happen.
Chapter 4 of this dissertation proposes the combination of Baird’s and Clar’s description of aromaticity to rationalize the different degree in red-shift ESIPT emissions among 2-hydroxy- naphthylbenzoxazole derivatives

Surveying entrepreneurial readiness of Business Administration students - A case study in the University of Labour & Social Affairs (ULSA)
This research is conducted to explore the entrepreneurial readiness, along with its related factors, of business administration students from ULSA. Based on the Theory of Planned Behavior by Ajzen, I., (1991), the researchers used the survey focusing on the influence of four factors: (1) the Entrepreneurial ability of students; (2) Motives/ Goals for students' entrepreneurship; (3) The impact of society on student entrepreneurship; (4) The impact of activities to support student entrepreneurship on "entrepreneurial readiness of students majoring in Business Administration at ULSA". The yielded results show that most factors have an average impact of 3/5 or more. Regarding the average impact, “Motives/ Goals for students’ entrepreneurship” has the highest rate of 4,06; followed by “The impact of society on student entrepreneurship” at 3,72; “The impact of activities to support student entrepreneurship” at 3,35; “Entrepreneurial ability of students” at 3,29
Vietnamska konfucijanska diplomatska tradicija ter dopisovanje med zadnjimi predkolonialnimi odposlanci vladavine Nguyễn in Li Hongzhangom
The Vietnamese envoys’ records during their diplomatic journeys to Beijing, especially poems and prose, have attracted increasing academic attention, from both international and local scholars. Some studies have comprehensively examined the Vietnamese envoys’ routes when visiting China, literary works, diplomatic strategies, and Confucian beliefs, such as the Taiwanese scholar Chen Yiyuan’s (陳益源) journal paper, which specifically problematizes the absence of filial expression related to the envoys’ journey in Xiaogan (孝感), Hubei Province. The systematic works of Liam C. Kelley and Peng Qian (彭茜) chiefly delineate the harmonious and normal communication based upon the long-developed cultural congruity between Vietnam and China. Their studies and other relevant research show the sophisticated impact of Chinese Confucianism on the Vietnamese envoys. However, there is so far insufficient investigation into the official representatives’ transformation and violation of Confucian manners and thoughts at specific historical moments. Hence, this paper intends to specify the practices of Confucian discourses in the final negotiation between the states of the Nguyễn and the Qing in 1883, both of which encountered the military threat from France and other Western countries. Our findings suggest that although those last envoys, including Phạm Thận Duật and Nguyễn Thuật, utilised a Sinocentric and Confucian manner to bargain with the Chinese for military aid, overall the Nguyễn adopted a Machiavellian approach instead. This means there was a division between political utility and ritual ethics, and the Vietnamese envoys, as pragmatic politicians, prioritized national security while discussing military aid in terms of Confucian rhetoric and values.Mednarodna in domača akademska skupnost čedalje večjo pozornost posvečata zapisom vietnamskih odposlancev, še posebej poeziji in prozi, ki so nastajali med njihovimi diplomatskimi potovanji v Peking. Avtorji so se v posameznih študijah osredotočili na poti, po katerih so potovali vietnamski odposlanci po kitajskem ozemlju, različna literarna dela, diplomatske strategije in konfucijanske ideje. Te še posebej izpostavi tajvanski učenjak Chen Yiyuan (陳益源), ki v svoji razpravi problematizira odsotnost poslušnosti in spoštovanja starejših na potovanju odposlancev v Xiaogan (孝感) v provinci Hubei. Liam C. Kelley in Peng Qiang (彭茜) sistematično prikažeta običajno harmonično komunikacijo, temelječo na kulturni skladnosti med Vietnamom in Kitajsko, ki se je oblikovala v daljšem zgodovinskem obdobju. Tovrstne študije sicer podrobno prikažejo sofisticiran vpliv kitajskega konfucianizma na vietnamske odposlance, a hkrati je še vedno premalo raziskav o uradnih predstavnikih in njihovih transformacijah ter kršenju konfucijanskih načel in idej v specifičnih zgodovinskih trenutkih. Članek zato poskuša prikazati prakse konfucijanskega diskurza v zadnjih pogajanjih med vladavino Nguyễn in dinastijo Qing leta 1883, ko sta se obe državi soočali z vojaškimi grožnjami Francije in drugih zahodnih dežel. Kljub temu da so zadnji odposlanci, kot na primer Phạm Thận Duật in Nguyễn Thuật, sinocentrična in konfucijanska načela uporabili kot metodo za uspešno pogajanje s kitajsko stranjo za vojaško pomoč, je Nguyễn namesto tega raje prevzel machiavellistični pristop. To kaže na razcep med politično koristjo in ritualno etiko, pri čemer so vietnamski odposlanci kot pragmatični politiki v kontekstu konfucijanske retorike in vrednot pri pogajanjih o vojaški pomoči prednostno obravnavali nacionalno varnost
ENGLISH TEACHERS’ QUESTIONS IN A VIETNAMESE HIGH SCHOOL READING CLASSROOM
Recently, developing students’ thinking, especially critical thinking (CT), has become a hot issue. Critical thinking has been claimed to have an important impact on learners’ reading comprehension because it can help them analyze, evaluate, construct their thinking, solving problems and reasoning (Ennis, 1989). However, the extent that teachers’ classroom activities contribute to developing students’ critical thinking has rarely been researched. The current case study was conducted with six EFL high school teachers and 10 reading lessons in Vietnam to explore the teachers’ use of questions and to analyze if these questions could facilitate the students’ critical thinking. Classroom observations and the cognitive domain of Bloom’s taxonomy were adapted as the research instruments. The study results reveal common types of questions are often used by high school teachers in their reading lessons. Suggestions are made on types of questions that teachers should function more in their class in order to enhance students’ critical thinking
ONLINE LEARNING AND ITS POTENTIAL IN DEVELOPING EFL LEARNER AUTONOMY: ENGLISH-MAJORED STUDENTS' PERCEPTIONS
Learner autonomy is now regarded as a desirable goal in tertiary education as it is found to comply with learner-centered approaches and enable students to pursue life-long learning (Sinclair, 2000a; Ciekanski, 2007). In the time of COVID-19 pandemic, the essential to conduct in-depth investigations into leaner autotomy and online learning has become more urgent, especially in the context of a university in Vietnam. This quantitative research responded to such a pressing call by exploring two aspects: (1) the students’ perception of online learning, and (3) the potentiality of online learning for developing learner autonomy. Quantitative data were collected through questionnaires administered to 199 English-majored students in the context of a university in Mekong Delta. The results revealed that the students possessed positive perceptions toward online learning. Furthermore, the potentiality of online learning was explored including the ability of (1) planning learning experience, (2) evaluating learning performance, (3) determining learning goals, (4) self-controlling learning process, (5) taking responsibility for learning decision. Last but not least, this study expected that the proposed pedagogical implications will contribute to the innovation of promoting learner autonomy in online learning in the context of a university in the Mekong Delta of Vietnam.
