Nguyen,Ngoc Duy Phuong,Tran,Thi Dai Trang 한국유통과학회 2019 KODISA ICBE (International Conference on Business Vol.2019 No.-

The aims of this study are applying the Perceived value model and employing the three factors defining service quality of information system from DeLone and McLean’s success model to identify the key factors affecting repurchase intention in smartphone-based ride hailing service. The research framework was examined with 427 valid respondents from Grab and Uber customers in Vietnam. Partial Least Square (PLS) employed to analyze the measurement and structural model. The statistical results support all seven proposed hypotheses. The study confirm that service quality and electronic service quality of information system are significant predictors of overall perceived service quality. In addition, when customer perceives the service quality outweighs their sacrifices, the perceived value increase, subsequently results in higher repurchase intention towards smartphone-based ride-hailing service. Overall, other variables account for 51.1% of variance of repurchase intention. The study confirms the relationships of the three variables represent the electronic service quality and service quality with the overall service quality, which directly effects to perceived value, considering a more comprehensive model for service in m-commerce context.

This study seeks to examine the relationship between business resources (through VRIN: Valuable - valuable, Rare - scarce; Inimitable - difficult to adapt, Irreplaceable - hard to replace), dynamic capability, external cooperation, and efficiency of startups operating in the seafood export sector. Research data was collected randomly and conveniently from 250 enterprises in Ba Ria-Vung Tau province, Vietnam, from October 2020 to December 2020. After excluding those ineligible, the remaining 204 enterprises meet the research conditions. With the support of SPSS-AMOS 22 dedicated software, using the 5-step Likert scale and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), the study conducted analysis steps such as verifying convergence, discriminant value, unidirectional and scale reliability when giving the components correlated freely in the critical model by Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) analysis. Results of the study have shown that the enterprise resource factor - VRIN has a positive impact on dynamic capability, and outside cooperation. However, in contrast to previous studies, we found that the relationship between enterprise resources - VRIN and performance as well as the relationship between dynamics capacity and performance is not clear. This shows that seafood exporters need to promote, exploit and effectively use this precious resource to improve business efficiency.

This research aims to give information about the current situation of five financial sources for climate change in Vietnam, including (i) the State budget used by ministries; (ii) the State budget used by provinces; (iii) Bilateral funds; (iv) Multilateral funds; and (v) Private funds, and then classify them in line with the effectiveness. The working paper’s secondary data on spending on CC-related activities, collected from reports of six ministries and 29 provinces, show that the State budget has been crucial in subsidizing CC-related activities in Vietnam. Moreover, domestic investment has accounted for a major part of the total expenditure of ministries and provinces for climate change. In addition, by using primary data collected from surveys sent to twelve experts from 5 groups, such as researchers, practical experts, managers of private funding organizations (such as banks and enterprises), managers of international funding organizations and beneficiaries, and then analyzing the data through the AHP method, the study shows that all climate finance sources in Vietnam are still not very effective. However, private sector funds are considered the most effective financial source for responding to climate change.

Purpose: This article focuses on exploring the associations between job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and turnover intention. Specifically, this study estimates the impacts of Vietnamese employees’ job satisfaction on their organizational commitment and turnover intention in FDI enterprises. Research design, data and methodology: The measures are adapted from previous studies to develop a questionnaire with a seven-point Likert scale. The dataset is directly collected from 227 respondents who are employees at FDI enterprises situated in the North of Vietnam. The dataset is analyzed by quantitative approaches using SPSS 24.0 and AMOS 24.0. Results: The results show that while turnover intention is positively correlated with monthly income, it is negatively correlated with job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Also, organizational commitment is positively associated with job satisfaction among employees at FDI enterprises in Vietnam. Conclusions: The findings of this study will serve as useful references for administrators of FDI enterprises and policymakers to promote employees’ job satisfaction and retain skilled employees.

Purpose: The paper employs the theory of planned behaviour, social identity theory, social presence theory, and social exchange theory to propose a model for using the social media platform Facebook in distributing information in universities. Research design, data and methodology: Data were obtained from 618 students at Hanoi University of Industry (HaUI) in Vietnam. The study used structural equation modeling in SPSS and the statistical analysis software AMOS version 24 to explore the information distribution role of Facebook. Results: Findings reveal that subjective norms and social presence play a key role in driving students to use Facebook for studying. In addition, university administrators can boost student satisfaction and academic achievement through Facebook. Interestingly, students who strongly identify with the brand name of the university have a strong connection with the university are more likely to engage in behaviors supportive toward the university. Conclusions: These findings show that Facebook had played a key information distribution role in universities. Thus, the study provides the executive board of the university and teachers can gain new understanding of why students employ Facebook for studying as well as capitalize on the platform to improve several operational metrics such as brand identification, student satisfaction, and academic achievement.

Novel highly active visible-light photocatalysts in the form of zinc bismuth oxide (ZnBi2O4) and graphite hybrid composites were prepared by coupling via a co-precipitation method followed by calcination at 450 oC. The asprepared ZnBi2O4-graphite hybrid composites were tested for the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) solutions under visible-light irradiation. The existence of strong electronic coupling between the two components within the ZnBi2O4- graphite heterostructure suppressed the photogenerated recombination of electrons and holes to a remarkable extent. The prepared composite exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity, leading to more than 93% of RhB degradation at an initial concentration of 50mg·L1 with 1.0 g catalyst per liter in 150min. The excellent visible-light photocatalytic mineralization of ZnBi2O4-1.0graphite in comparison with pristine ZnBi2O4 could be attributed to synergetic effects, charge transfer between ZnBi2O4 and graphite, and the separation efficiency of the photogenerated electrons and holes. The photo-induced h+ and the superoxide anion were the major active species responsible for the photodegradation process. The results demonstrate the feasibility of ZnBi2O4-1.0graphite as a potential heterogeneous photocatalyst for environmental remediation.

This research was conducted to experimentally screen the suitability of acrylamido-2- methylpropane sulfonic acid-acrylamide (AMPS-AM) copolymer-based nanogels for using as sealants to shut-off water channels in the high-temperature and high-salinity reservoir conditions of the White Tiger oil feld. Via in situ intercalative free-radical copolymerization, nanogels have been prepared from montmorillonite-alkyl ammonium clay, AMPS and AM. Two primary compositions of nanogel systems were chosen. A mixture of hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA)/phenyl acetate (PhAc) was used as a crosslinking system. The results obtained from screening the gel properties by using the bottle test method, the test under nitrogen pressure and core ooding under imitated reservoir conditions show that the NANOSEAL-1 and the NANOSEAL-2 nanogels can well satisfy the VietsovPetro (VSP) technical requirements for water isolation materials.

Livelihood capitals have a clear influence on livelihood development. As for the livelihood results, it has been pointed out in the analysis of the poor households that the ability of people to escape poverty depends especially on the access to livelihood capitals. This study aims to analyze the impacts of livelihood capital on poverty among mountain people who depend on forests through human capital, social capital, natural capital, physical capital and financial capital. This research employs the model of binary regression function. Independent variables x1, x2, …, xn are targets of livelihood strategy, vulnerability context, and livelihood capitals. These variables were selected to be included in the original model with dependent variable Y as poor and non-poor households. This study surveys households living in upland areas, near forests, and households of ethnic minorities. The results show that,out of the poor household rate, nearly 4% are newly-poor households or those falling back into poverty. Therefore, the government needs to pay more attention to this disadvantaged group and implements policies such as education and training policies, credit support policies, policies to support forest development, and payment for forest environmental services in the context of emerging countries like Vietnam.

Nguyen Thi Phuong Mai. 2009. ‘A study on teaching Korean language-culture through television drama for Vietnamese learners’. Journal of the International Network for Korean Language and Culture. Vol. 6-1. 191-211. Korean dramas started the Korean wave in Vietnam and are still a favourite for Vietnamese people. Loving Korean dramas has become a motive for studying Korean language and culture among a great number of Vietnamese students. Therefore, using the Korean dramas as teaching materials would lure the attention from the students as well as create an interesting studying atmosphere. In addition, Korean dramas use lively and daily communication language so as to help students to approach to the modern language not the formal one stated in the textbooks. The study aims at recommending a suitable teaching methodology of Korean language and culture through television dramas. The contents of Korean language-culture teaching and learning methodology in this paper include three parts: linguistic etiquette, productive skill based on comparison of language and cultural characteristics of Vietnamese and Korean languages, and the general Korean language-culture teaching. Regarding the teaching methodology of Korean language and culture through television dramas, this study brings about some suggestions such as using drama as a audio visual media in practising speaking and listening skills, using drama script in improving the reading skill, and sharpening the writing skill by rewriting the script in the cross-culture perspective.(Vietnam National University-Hochiminh City)
