Entrepreneurship brings countless values to each individual and practical benefits to society and the economy. Recently, the call for a better understanding of entrepreneurship from corporations and governments is regularly voiced the day, both in the academic literature and in public discussions. This study examines factors influencing the startup decision of young people in Vietnam. Primary data was collected from an online survey and then imported into an Excel file before being analyzed by SPSS 22. The total number of relevant observations for the study is 656, using numerous statistical approaches such as EFA and multiple regression analyses. This study contributes to the existing literature and current practice by suggesting six major determinants of startup intention: self-expectation, personal attitudes, self-competency, perceived feasibility, entrepreneurial orientation, and financial wealth. Among these factors, self-competency and entrepreneurial orientation are statistically significant, indicating that the capability of young people is the most important determinant of their startup intention. Additionally, the results indicate that self-expectation, attitude, perceived feasibility, and finance do not impact students’ intention to pursue entrepreneurship. We suggest that by enhancing the training quality of universities, young people will be provided with much essential knowledge and technical skills for running a business.

본 연구의 목적은 가족유형에 따른 베트남 결혼이주여성의 자녀양육에서 어떠한 경험을 하였으며, 그러한 경험의 의미는 무엇인지를 밝히는 것이다. 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 문헌조사와 4가지의 가족유형에 속한 현재 인천지역에 거주하고 있는 베트남 결혼이주여성 8명을 대상으로 심층 인터뷰를 실시하였다. 본 연구는 2013년7월부터 시작하여 2014년 5월까지 진행하였으며, 자료 분석은 Colazzi (1978)의 분석 기법에 따라서 분석하였다. 심층면접은 3회에 걸쳐 진행하였으며, 1회에 한 시간 정도 소요하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 한 부모가정에서 경제적 어려움, 자녀를 위한 희생, 한국의 친척 및 가족과 단절, 자녀의 정서적 불안 등으로 나타났다. 둘째, 양부모가정에서 자녀양육에 대한 남편과의 갈등, 베트남 문화 계승, 남편의 불신 등으로 나타났다. 셋째, 시부모와 같이 사는 시부모가정에서는 시어머니는 가정교사, 양육방식 으로 인한 고부 갈등, 자녀는 고부갈등의 해결사 등으로 나타났다. 넷째, 베트남 친모가정에서는 한국에서 고생하는 딸을 위한 희생, 친모와 갈등, 친모에 대한 죄책감 등으로 나타났다. 결혼이주여성들의 자녀양육을 원활하기 위해 가장 중요한 것은 결혼이주여성에게 한국문화에 대한 소개와 교육이 잘 이루어지는 것도 중요하지만, 가족들에게 베트남결혼이주여성의 문화를 이해하고 수용하는 교육이 우선되어야 한다. 특히 시부모와 함께 거주하는 결혼이주여성들의 경우에는 시어머니와 결혼이주여성 간의 생활 경험을 보다 깊이 이해하고 원활한 관계를 촉진하는 사회적인 지원이 필요하다. 특히 지역사회의 사회공동망을 구축해야 한다. The purpose of this study is to explore the parenting experiences of Vietnamese marriage immigrants of each family type and explore the meaning of those parenting experiences. Therefore, we have collected the data from 8 Vietnamese marriage immigrant women, which have been divided into 4 family types in Incheon, South Korea. In the way of in-depth interview, we have conducted an analysis by using Colaizzi`s(1978) methodology. The research has been executed from July 2013 to May 2014. All interviewees have been interviewed face-to-face individually. These interviews have been carried out in three times and separated by one hour one time. There are four common family types of Vietnamese marriage migrants in South Korea. (1) single parent family because of divorce and the woman has custody of children; (2) nuclear family with parents and their children; (3) extended family composed of parents, parents in law and their children; (4) extended family consisting of parents, children and aunts or grandmothers invited to care children. For most of Vietnamese marriage migrants, especially the women group, one the one hand, it is vital for them to have a good understanding of South Korea culture and education; on the other hand, our society also has the responsibility to diffuse the multi-culture of Vietnamese. Particularly, living together with their parents-in-law, Vietnamese women always have a lot of communication barriers to understand traditional Korean family culture and the promotion of relationship. We consider that it is necessary to establish some supplement system for these multi-cultural families. Therefore, the most important part is to set up their proper social network.

Luong Thi Tham,Nguyen Thi Hong Tham,Nguyen Tien Dat,Le Van Toan,Pham Thi Hong Trang,Ho Thanh-Tam,Nguyen Ngoc-Loi 한국미생물·생명공학회 2024 Journal of microbiology and biotechnology Vol.34 No.1

The widespread application of triazole fungicides (TFs) in agricultural practices can result in the considerable accumulation of active compound residues in the soil and a subsequent negative impact on the soil microbiota and crop health. In this study, we isolated three TF-degrading bacterial strains from contaminated agricultural soils and identified them as Klebsiella sp., Pseudomonas sp., and Citrobacter sp. based on analysis of morphological characteristics and 16S rRNA gene sequences. The strains used three common TFs, namely hexaconazole, difenoconazole, and propiconazole, as their only sources of carbon and energy for growth in a liquid mineral salt medium, with high concentrations (~ 500 mg/l) of each TF. In addition to the ability to degrade fungicides, the isolates also exhibited plant growth-promoting characteristics, such as nitrogen fixation, indole acetic acid production, phosphate dissolution, and cellulose degradation. The synergistic combination of three bacterial isolates significantly improved plant growth and development with an increased survival rate (57%), and achieved TF degradation ranging from 85.83 to 96.59% at a concentration of approximately 50 mg/kg of each TF within 45 days in the soil-plant system. Based on these findings, the three strains and their microbial consortium show promise for application in biofertilizers, to improve soil health and facilitate optimal plant growth.

TRAN, Thi Trang,TRAN, Anh Tung,PHAM, Thi Ngan Korea Distribution Science Association 2020 The Journal of Asian Finance, Economics and Busine Vol.7 No.10

This study aims to explore a new approach of relationship assessment by partially employing attitudinal commitment to measure the influence on perception of cooperation within the Vietnamese rice supply chains, which begins from commercial enterprises up to the retailers in the Vietnamese market. The quantitative research is first built around the measurement instruments for the constructs of relationship quality (RQ) and its dimensions; next, a questionnaire is designed; finally, we deal with sample issues and analyze the data to answer the research questions. The truncated sampling technique and Likert-scale survey is a suitable method for analyzing Vietnamese rice retailers and data collection. The preliminary test was conducted using SPSS Statistics; the main test was, then, carried out to evaluate the proposed model and test the hypotheses. Appropriately, the results point to a significant influence of attitudinal factors on trust and satisfaction. In addition, with the involvement of perceived trust and satisfaction, that combination showed the mediating effect between the attitudinal factors and the relationship quality. The ad-hoc analysis indicated the significant role of the two mediators. To be more specific, the high degree of trust and satisfaction has a positive impact on the formation of the relationship between participants in the sector.

Pham, Hiep-Hung,Vuong, Quan-Hoang,Dong, Thi-Kieu-Trang,Nguyen, Tien-Trung,Ho, Manh-Toan,Vuong, Thu-Trang,Hoang, Anh-Duc,Nguyen, Mai-Huong World Association for Triple Helix and Future Stra 2021 Journal of Contemporary Eastern Asia Vol.20 No.1

Traditionally, students from the Southern world tend to cross their national borders to study abroad. However, in recent times, we have observed a trend in which more and more students, both full-time and short-term, select Southern countries as destinations for overseas education. This paper contributes to the sparse literature on the above phenomenon, examining the case of Vietnam. We surveyed 50 universities and colleges about their international student profiles (including statistics and nationalities) and their strategies for attracting international students. The findings of this study provide implications for Vietnam's policymakers and university/college leaders and other Southern countries when implementing the internationalization of tertiary education.

Giant Strain in Lead-free Relaxor/Ferroelectric Piezocomposite Ceramics

Thi Hinh Dinh,Jin-Kyu Kang,Hoang Thien Khoi Nguyen,Trang An Duong,Jae-Shin Lee,Vu Diem Ngoc Tran,Ky Nam Pham 한국물리학회 2016 THE JOURNAL OF THE KOREAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY Vol.68 No.12

The crystal structural, ferroelectric, and electric-field-induced-strain (EFIS) properties of leadfree relaxor/ferroelectric piezocomposites were investigated. The relaxor-matrix phases were mixed with the ferroelectric-seed phases by using a conventional ceramic processing route. The addition of the ferroelectric seed phase dramatically enhanced the EFIS of the relaxor matrix phase at low electric fields. Giant strains of 745 pm/V at 4 kV/mm and 466 pm/V at 3 kV/mm were obtained when the seed contents were 30 wt% and 50 wt%, respectively, which are much higher than those of the relaxor matrix phase without ferroelectric seeds (575 pm/V at 4 kV/mm and 327 pm/V at 3 kV/mm).

PHAM, Huong Trang,HOANG, Kim Thu,NGUYEN, Thi Thoa,DO, Phuong Huyen,MAR, Ma Tin Cho Korea Distribution Science Association 2021 The Journal of Asian Finance, Economics and Busine Vol.8 No.3

The last decade has seen the emergence of the idea of "sharing economy" as people are more aware of environmental issues. Although clothing businesses applying the model of sharing consumption have emerged recently, less research effort has been invested in this topic, especially in investigating young consumers' intention. The purpose of this study is to investigate factors driving Generation Z consumers' behavioral intention toward online fashion rental. In this research, a conceptual framework is proposed based on the Theory of Planned Behavior and Technology Acceptance Model. To test the research model and hypotheses, a survey of 375 students and pupils was conducted in Vietnam. All the scales' reliability and validity were assessed through Cronbach's Alpha and confirmatory factor analysis. Structural equation modeling was used to assess the relationship among constructs. The study results showed that attitude toward behavior, subjective norm and perceived behavioral control were positive contributors to Gen Z's intention to use online fashion rental. Besides, the positive relationships between attitude and two other factors - perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use - were also highlighted. Moreover, the findings provided empirical evidence for supporting the positive impact of interpersonal influence, e-WOM, and influencer e-marketing on subjective norm.
