Fetus Trafficking in Viet Nam – The New Criminal Method of Human Trafficking
When it comes to basic rights of the fetus, including the right to life, theoretical studies around the world on human rights of the fetus still have not reached an agreement on approaches and explanation. Criminal law at the international and national levels still leaves the possibility of protecting the unborn child. Viet Nam’s criminal law is no exception to this trend. In addition, Viet Nam is currently facing human trafficking with new methods and tricks. Children are bought and paid for while still in the womb, then born abroad and given to traffickers. Children are only protected by criminal law for human trafficking if they are born, alive, and detected by the authorities. While the act of trafficking in fetuses is often easily detected by the authorities right from the stage of purchasing and paying, it is not feasible to prosecute this act for human trafficking under the criminal law of Viet Nam. This reduces the criminal law’s ability to suppress crime, at the same time, leaves many fetuses unprotected. Should criminal law be left outside the legal mechanism to protect children while in the fetal stage? This article suggests considering fetus trafficking as a form of human trafficking and to criminalize fetus trafficking. Criminal law should recognize fetus trafficking as a sign of crime or an early stage in the criminal process of human trafficking, because children need special care and protection, including appropriate legal protection before and after birth, due to their physical and mental immaturity
Metal-insulator Phase Diagram for the Fully Diagonal Disordered Hubbard Model at Half-filling
The electronic properties of strongly correlated systems with binary type of disorder are investigated using the coherent potential approximation. For half-filled system, two transitions from a band insulator via a metallic state to a Mott insulator are found with increasing the correlation strength of only one of the constituents. Our phase diagram is consistent with those obtained by the dynamical mean field theory
Constructing a Knowledge Graph for Vietnamese Legal Cases with Heterogeneous Graphs
This paper presents a knowledge graph construction method for legal case
documents and related laws, aiming to organize legal information efficiently
and enhance various downstream tasks. Our approach consists of three main
steps: data crawling, information extraction, and knowledge graph deployment.
First, the data crawler collects a large corpus of legal case documents and
related laws from various sources, providing a rich database for further
processing. Next, the information extraction step employs natural language
processing techniques to extract entities such as courts, cases, domains, and
laws, as well as their relationships from the unstructured text. Finally, the
knowledge graph is deployed, connecting these entities based on their extracted
relationships, creating a heterogeneous graph that effectively represents legal
information and caters to users such as lawyers, judges, and scholars. The
established baseline model leverages unsupervised learning methods, and by
incorporating the knowledge graph, it demonstrates the ability to identify
relevant laws for a given legal case. This approach opens up opportunities for
various applications in the legal domain, such as legal case analysis, legal
recommendation, and decision support.Comment: ISAILD@KSE 202
Experiences of Housing Adapted to Sea Level Rise and Applicability for Houses in the Can Gio District, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
As a coastal district located in the Southeast of Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), Vietnam, Can Gio is characterized by low average terrains ranging up to only 1.5m above the sea level. Impacted by climate change and sea level rise in recent years, certain neighborhoods in the Can Gio District have been facing the loss of their residential and arable lands, as well as undesired relocations. Together with riverbank and coastal erosion, this phenomenon has several negative impacts on the lives of people in residential areas and on their economic activities. This research uses a literature review and observation as the main methods to explore the experiences of sea level rise adaptive housing and thereby suggests certain solutions for the Can Gio District. The solutions include saving space for water, elevating floors, constructing with floating floors, and creating biological ditches and osmotic lines to help quickly drain flooded water. These solutions aim to protect people’s lives and houses against the rising sea level and ensure the sustainable development of the neighborhoods
Dairy Value Chain In Vietnam: Evidences from Bavi Area
Dairy farming, in Vietnam, existed in the early twentieth century thanks to the favorable natural advantage. During many difficult periods, the Vietnam’s dairy industry has developed constantly and contributed significantly to the food needs ensuring. However, Vietnam’s dairy industry still could not satisfy the domestic milk demand. Retail milk prices in Vietnam are very high, whereas the price of milk sold by the dairy farmers is very low. The cause stems from the control of dairy companies in the quantity and quality of milk. Moreover, that control caused an imbalance in the profits and benefits of each actor in the dairy value chain. This study, hence, finds out the distribution of benefits, costs, value-added among the actors, and problems in the practical management in dairy milk value chain with specific focus on Bavi as the case study

LBMT team at VLSP2022-Abmusu: Hybrid method with text correlation and generative models for Vietnamese multi-document summarization
Multi-document summarization is challenging because the summaries should not
only describe the most important information from all documents but also
provide a coherent interpretation of the documents. This paper proposes a
method for multi-document summarization based on cluster similarity. In the
extractive method we use hybrid model based on a modified version of the
PageRank algorithm and a text correlation considerations mechanism. After
generating summaries by selecting the most important sentences from each
cluster, we apply BARTpho and ViT5 to construct the abstractive models. Both
extractive and abstractive approaches were considered in this study. The
proposed method achieves competitive results in VLSP 2022 competition.Comment: In Proceedings of the 9th International Workshop on Vietnamese
