Wyatt, Glenn Craig. "The phenomenology of traffic in Ho Chi Minh city." Thesis, Queensland University of Technology, 2018. https://eprints.qut.edu.au/120284/1/Glenn_Wyatt_Thesis.pdf.
Full textAbstract:
This research examines the urban traffic in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam using a philosophical theoretical framework to analyze the relationship between perception, experience and practice. The study used a video-narrative approach, revealing ways in which meaning emerges through relationships with objects, both material and immaterial and the role of tacit knowledge and pre-conscious skills in negotiating the traffic environment. This approach provides an alternative and complementary way to study urban traffic that differs from other more technologically driven methods or approaches that view traffic systems in universal terms.

Notre étude focalisée sur HCMV et sa région se veut d'abord une contribution à l'évaluation de la réintroduction du français au Vietnam. L'intervention de l'Agence universitaire de la francophonie (AUF), la mise en place de nouvelles filières et de classes bilingues à partir de 1992 ont profondément changé la situation du français au Vietnam. Les thématiques nouvelles des manuels, les méthodes d'enseignement changent également cette situation de manière irréversibleThis study, which concentrates on HCMV and its region, is first and foremost a contribution to the evaluation of the reintroduction of french to Vietnam. Since 1992 the work carried out by the Auf, as well as the creation of new university programmes and bilingual classes has profoundly changed the place of french linguage in Vietnam. The adoption of new approaches and teaching methods have likewise changed this situation definitively

Full textAbstract:
The current population in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) is more than 7 million. Due to pressures of increasing population, the developing economy and climate change, the future security of water supply is far from satisfactory. There is also pressure to connect a large number of customers currently not connected to the HCMC water supply reticulation grid. Current water resources management tends to be fragmented and focused purely on supply side management. It is not economically and environmentally sustainable to focus purely on augmenting supply to meet increasing demand. Sustainable water resources management requires a broader more holistic approach. Government's plans to improve current and future water management issues are examined in the context of two case studies, one from Australia (a developed country) and one from the Philippines (a developing country). The sustainable water management approaches adopted by these two case studies sit at either end of the s pectrum of options. One is closer to a centralized government planning model and the other is a more radical privatisation flavoured model. The thesis investigates the current water demand and supply balance for residential, commercial and industry; and propose a balanced strategy to meet the HCMC's demand until year 2020. The amount of water savings are calculated by implementing a suite of water conservation initiatives. The proposed initatives will substantially narrow the gap between the planned supply and forecasted demand, thus providing a acceptable reasonable supply security for the community.

Ho, Thi Huong Giang. "Le parc public à Ho Chi Minh ville : pratiques et significations." Thesis, Pau, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020PAUU1075.
Full textAbstract:
Le processus de mondialisation rapide des métropoles s’accompagne d’une forte demande de parcs publics. À Ho Chi Minh Ville, cette dernière se manifeste non seulement dans les politiques publiques mais également dans les pratiques des usagers. Ces pratiques reflètent une forte variété de significations individuelles face aux transformations de la société urbaine. En fait, les individus, par leurs usages des parcs publics, contribuent à la transition et à l’enrichissement de cette forme d’espace public vers la modernité dans leur vie quotidienne. Il y a une volonté très répandue de se préoccuper de soi qui se manifeste par la diversité des pratiques physiques et également par le changement de perception des individus. Cela résulte de trois types d’aménités perçues par des usagers : la santé, l’extension de l’espace de vie et la quête du bien-être grâce à la présence de la nature dans les parcs. Ensuite, en raison de critères liés aux individus vulnérables comme les personnes âgées, les migrants et les femmes isolées, de nouvelles formes de sociabilité urbaine émergent grâce auxquelles le parc aide les individus qui cherchent à reconstruire leur vie. Alors, ce dernier n’est plus seulement une forme physique sur le plan de l’aménagement mais également un « actant » qui contribue activement à la création de nouvelles formes de cohésion sociale et à l’hybridation culturelle dans le processus de modernisation urbaineThe process of rapid globalization of metropolises is accompanied by a high demand for public parks. In Ho Chi Minh City, the latter manifests itself not only in public policies but also in the practices of users. These practices developed a large variety of individual meanings in the face of transformations in urban society. In fact, individuals, through their use of public parks, have contributed to the transition and enrichment of this form of public space towards modernity in their daily lives. There is a widespread desire to concern oneself which manifests itself in the diversity of physical practices and also in the change of perception of individuals. This is the result of three types of amenities perceived by users: health, the extension of living space and the quest for well-being through the presence of nature in the parks. Then, due to criteria linked to vulnerable individuals such as the elderly, migrants and isolated women, new forms of urban sociability are emerging thanks to the park helping individuals seeking to rebuild their lives. So, the latter is no longer just a physical form in terms of planning but also an "actor" who contributes to the creation of new forms of social cohesion and to cultural hybridization in the process of urban modernization
Sự phát triển công viên là một trong những điểm trọng yếu được nhắc đến trong quá trình toàn cầu hoá của các siêu đô thị. Tại thành phố Hồ Chí Minh, công viên không chỉ là vấn đề được quan tâm bởi các chính sách công mà còn bởi chính những người dân sử dụng nó. Những họat động tại đây phản ánh những ý nghĩa mang tính cá nhân mà công viên mang lại trong bối cảnh đô thị hoá. Các hoạt động trong công viên thường ngày cũng đóng góp váo sự chuyển đổi sang hình thái đô thị hiện đại của thành phố. Chúng ta dễ dành nhận ra một nhu cầu phổ biến trong việc mong muốn chăm sóc bản thân bằng những hoạt động thể chất và cả sự thay đổi trong nhận thức của từng cá nhân. Diều này được thể hiện qua ba nhóm lợi ích được tiếp nhận bởi những người trực tiếp sử dụng công viên: sức khoẻ, mở rộng không gian sống và dưỡng sinh trong không gian thiên nhiên của côn viên. Bên cạnh đó, các hoạt động ở công viên còn phản ánh sự liên kết giữa các các nhân yếu thế trong xã hội như người lớn tuổi, người nhập cư và phụ nữ. Đây là yếu tố tạo nên những hình thái mới trong quan hệ xã hội đô thị trong đó các cá nhận tìm cách cải thiện cuộc sống của họ thông qua những hoạt động ở công viên. Như vậy, công viên không chỉ là một yếu ố thụ động nằm trong quy hoạch đô thị mà nó còn là một yếu tố tác động vào sự liên kết xã hội và chuyển giao vă hoá trong bối cảnh hiện dại hoá đô thị

Ngo, Anh-Thu Thi. "Emergent Expressions: Creative Politics in Contemporary Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam." Thesis, Harvard University, 2015. http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:17467522.
Full textAbstract:
In this ethnography, I examine select artists’ expressive endeavors and the contexts that cordon off their possibilities for engagement in contemporary Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Artists are self-aware social critics, and as such, these subjects express disaffection with Vietnam’s trajectory of political economic development since its official adoption of the reform agenda of “market socialism” in 1986. Amid the one-party Communist state’s selective approaches to controlling potentially subversive activities, these young visual artists, musicians, and writers also contend with the shifting exigencies of market-driven modes of valuing and circulating. These critics diagnose a social anomie arising from the misguided conduct of ruling authorities and the corruption of sociocultural infrastructures. In the process, the artists forge new alliances and networks, wielding the resources of market opening in service of social and personal ambitions. I convey these middle-class intellectuals’ subjectivities and “worlding,” as they endeavor to make themselves both as Vietnamese and globalized citizens. Meanwhile, their attempts to circumvent the state’s restrictions on expression constitute efforts at “becoming-minoritarian,” challenging majoritarian regimes of truth. But the occlusions and potential that surface are not just byproducts of pervasive governmentality or neoliberal encroachment. Through intimate regard for the social spheres in which artists circulate and with close attention to the works that they produce, this ethnography is a curation of the varied weights of creative impulses, from Confucian and Buddhist obligations to liberal and Communist ideologies to spectral relics of war. Acknowledging the diversity of structural influences allows us to assess late socialist contexts with more nuanced consideration for the agents of cultural production, without subsuming their trajectories to the telos of capital and its associated liberalisms, while accounting for the insidious yet capricious nature of political repression.Anthropology

Full textAbstract:
This thesis is an examination of Nguyen Ai Quoc's (Ho Chi Minh's) role in transmitting communism to Vietnam in the period between the First and Second World Wars. As the Third International (Comintern) provided the theory and much of the organizational support for this task, it is also a study of the Comintern's changing policies towards revolution in colonial countries. It has grown out of research in the Moscow archives of the Comintern, which first became available to researchers in late 1991-1992. It also makes extensive use of the French colonial archives at the Centre d'Archives d'Outre-Mer in Aix-en-Provence. This study begins with Nguyen Ai Quoc's appearance in Paris in 1919, when he lobbied the Paris Peace Conference for greater Vietnamese freedom and was then drawn into the political world of the French left. It follows his first contacts with the Comintern in Moscow (1923- 1924), through his two-year sojourn in Canton during the Communist-Guomindang United Front, when he established the first training courses for Vietnamese revolutionaries. Chapters IV and V cover his return to Asia in mid-1928, his founding of the Vietnamese Communist Party in 1930, and the 1930-31 insurrectionary movement in Vietnam. Chapter Six deals with his Jime 1931 arrest and his long period of political inactivity in Moscow, from mid-1934 until the autumn of 1938. The final chapter covers his return to southern China and his efforts to regain his influence in the Vietnamese communist movement from 1939 to 1941. The thesis concludes that, with the benefit of the documentary evidence now available, it is necessary to readjust the perception of Nguyen Ai Quoc as an influential communist during his early political career. Initially he received little financial support from Moscow and he never became a member of the Comintern Executive Committee. Nor did he exist entirely within the world of the Comintern. Although the latter was an essential force in the creation of Vietnamese communism, there were other factors which shaped its growth, including family and regional ties, as well as Chinese and French left-wing politics.

Full textAbstract:
Breastfeeding has several advantages for both mother and child. A woman’s attitude to breastfeeding is a good predictor for infant feeding method and her confidence in breastfeeding has an impact on her breastfeeding duration. Aim:The aim of the study was to assess the attitude to and confidence in breastfeeding among Vietnamese women in Ho Chi Minh City. The aim was also to investigate if the type of family, nuclear and extended, influences the Vietnamese women’s attitude to and confidence in breastfeeding. Method: A descriptive and comparative cross-section study with quantitative method was used. The Self-Care Theory and The Cultural Care Diversity and Universality Theory were used as theoretical framework of this study. A questionnaire which consisted of demographic information, attitude to and confidence in breastfeeding, was distributed to 110 voluntarily participating women in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Results: The results showed that the women had an attitude in favour of breastfeeding and rated their confidence between "sometimes confident" and "often confident". No significant differences of total score, between nuclear and extended family, in attitude to and confidence in breastfeeding were shown. Conclusion: The attitude to and confidence in breastfeeding among the women in Ho Chi Minh City were rather good but improvements can be made. When healthcare professionals counsel Vietnamese women, in Sweden and Vietnam, about breastfeeding, this result can be used as guidance, in order to give relevant and cultural congruent advice.

A lack of consensus exists among urban planners and government officials on what to do with the complex issue of informal street vending and sidewalk usage, with cities often turning to ineffective licensing or harmful street clearance. This paper seeks to address this unfulfilling dichotomy by analyzing a tourism proposal for a painted pedestrian path in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, to assess whether this intervention has potential as a spatial management tool for street vendors, given existing sidewalk practices. Since Ho Chi Minh City has taken to clearing vendors in the name of tourism, this proposal uniquely positions itself at the nexus of street vendor management and urban tourism, and hopes to capitalize on two existing forms of management in the city: a painted sidewalk line to regulate vending, and an informal motorcycle taxi union. To understand the existing system of sidewalk uses, this thesis analyzes official reports and policies, utilizes interviewing and mapping fieldwork conducted in Ho Chi Minh City with street vendors, and examines data from news articles and tourist surveys. These three levels of research reveal significant mismatches in policy goals and existing practices, such as the government's targeting mobile street vendors when they take up significantly less space than business spillover and sidewalk cafes, and the government's attitude of clearing the streets for tourists when in fact tourists comment on Vietnamese street life and street food more than any other experience. Given these mismatches, it seems that this visual line has potential to both include street vendors and organize sidewalk life into an appealing tourist experience. However, the goal or purpose of the intervention will ultimately determine its impacts on the city with respects to displacement and gentrification. Through identifying the strengths and weaknesses of each approach, this thesis is able to propose strategies and planning tools to mitigate the impacts of this intervention, and argues that a visual tourist intervention of this nature could in fact present a viable street vendor management model.

There is a lack of physical activity (PA) data among primary school-aged children in Asia and Vietnam where rapid urbanisation, modernisation and mechanisation result in a more sedentary lifestyle. This study investigated the level and pattern of PA; identify factors influencing PA; and explored the current physical education (PE) programs serving fifth-grade students in Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam. About 80% of the students did not have a sufficient level of PA and over 50% were either overweight or obese, therefore, interventions are urgently needed. Recommendations for improving PE programs and designing effective interventions were also included.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Introduction: Previous research showed that comorbidities that are common in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are anxiety and depression. Furthermore, stress can be associated with more depressive symptoms. Patients suffering from depression along with an additional medical condition, tend to have more severe symptoms in both depression and their medical illness. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate depression, anxiety, and stress among COPD patients, and also to examine if there was a difference in levels of depression, anxiety and stress between genders, and between COPD patients and patients with COPD together with comorbid chronic condition. Method: This study had a descriptive and cross-sectional design with a quantitative method. The data collection took place at a respiratory ward at Cho Ray Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Sixty two COPD patients, both men and women, participated voluntarily by answering a questionnaire. Virginia Henderson´s nursing theory was used as a theoretical framework. Data analysis was conducted through using the statistical program SPSS. Result: More than half of the COPD patients (88.8%) presented symptoms of depression, 93.5% presented symptoms of anxiety, and 54.8% presented symptoms of stress. There was a statistical significance between genders among COPD patients in anxiety, where all female participants (100%) showed extremely severe levels of anxiety. In levels of extreme severity, both patients with only COPD diagnosis and patients with COPD and comorbid chronic condition presented symptoms in both depression and anxiety, but not in levels of stress. Conclusion: COPD patients in Ho Chi Minh City presented high levels of depression and anxiety. In addition, levels of stress were present, although not as high as depression and anxiety among this patient group. More information concerning psychological distress needs to be offered by healthcare professionals to COPD patients. Further research in this field is desirable.Sammanfattning Introduktion: Tidigare forskning visar att depression och ångest är vanligt förekommande bland patienter med Kroniskt Obstruktiv Lungsjukdom (KOL). Stress kan associeras med flera depressiva symtom. Patienter som lider av depression tillsammans med annat mediciniskt tillstånd kan ha en tendens att utveckla svårare symptom i sin depression och sitt medicinska tillstånd. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka depression, ångest och stress hos patienter med KOL och om skillnader fanns mellan kön. Vidare önskades skillnader undersökas mellan patienter med enbart KOL och patienter med KOL och annat kroniskt tillstånd. Metod: Studien är en deskriptiv tvärsnittsstudie, med kvantitativ metod. Datainsamling utfördes på en respiratorisk avdelning på Cho Ray sjukhuset i Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Sextio-två KOL-patienter, både män och kvinnor, deltog frivilligt genom att besvara en enkät. Virginia Hendersons omvårdnadsteori användes i detta arbete. Dataanalysen utfördes med hjälp av SPSS programmet. Resultat: Mer än hälften (88,8 %) av KOL-patienterna visade symtom på depression, 93,5% för ångest, samt 54,8 % visade symtom för stress. Det fanns en statistisk signifikant skillnad mellan könen avseende ångest, där alla kvinnliga deltagare (100 %) visade extremt allvarliga nivåer av ångest. Patienter med enbart KOL-diagnos och patienter med KOL tillsammans med andra kroniska tillstånd uppvisade extremt allvarliga nivåer av både depression och ångest, dock inte av stress. Slutsats: KOL-patienter i Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, uppvisar höga nivåer av depression och ångest. Höga stressnivåer bland deltagare kunde ses, dock inte i lika hög utsträckning som depression och ångest i denna patientgrupp. Mer studier i detta ämne är önskvärt.

Full textAbstract:
Acute respiratory infections (ART) are among the most frequent infectious diseases in children worldwide, particularly in developing countries. Antibiotics are very often prescribed or purchased without prescription for the treatment of ARl, although viruses are recognised as tbe predominant pathogens [1-7]. The aim of the work presented in this thesis was to quantify antibiotic use 111 outpatients with ARI in Children's Hospital I, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, to identify the viral and bacterial respiratory aetiologic agents and to assess the impact of antibiotic use on the selection of resistant bacteria in the intestinal flora. Two prospective descriptive studies were conducted in the outpatient clinic: one in ARl patients and the other in healthy children. The epidemiology, presentation and treatment characteristics of children with ARI in the outpatient clinic were described. Antibiotics were prescribed in 99.6% of 563 patients while respiratory viruses were detected in 72.5% among these patients with the use of multiplex PCR in respiratory specimens. Antibiotic use was considered inappropriate in 67.7% of cases, according to evidence-based guidelines and detected pathogens. Besides antibiotics, other treatments such as oral bronchodilators, oral corticosteroids, antihistamines, and mucolytic agents were commonly used at the rates of 57.6%, 10.3%, 11 % and 11 %, respectively, and in most of the cases, were not in accordance with the current guidelines. We observed a short-term selection of resistant Enterobacteriaceae in patients' intestinal flora resistant not only to the antibiotic class the patients received but also co-selection of resistance to other rarely used antibiotics. HPLC assays were developed with high sensitivity and specificity to determine the presence of 6 beta- lactam antibiotics in the urine antibiotic use before presentation as determined by HPLC (32%) was significantly higher than that reported by parent interviews (21 %). Antibiotic use in Vietnam is largely unrestricted leading to overuse and overprescription for uncomplicated ARI.

Full textAbstract:
Eutrophication in aquaculture ponds is one of the major issues related to both the environment and the health of consumers. This study has selected and conducted a water-quality survey of nine freshwater aquaculture ponds in Ho Chi Minh City. The empirical results showed that these ponds were seriously polluted with COD and BOD5 whose values did not meet the B2 column of the Vietnamese National Technical Regulation on Surface Water Quality (QCVN 08-MT:2015/BTNMT). On the other hand, most N-NH4+ and N-NO2- concentrations in the ponds met the threshold value of B2 column. The values of the chlorophyll-a are greater than 10 μg/L, indicating that investigated ponds are in a state of eutrophication. In addition, the results of the TSI calculations showed that most of the sites that are in hypereutrophication state and phosphorus is identified as the eutrophication limit factor in these sites.Phú dưỡng hóa nguồn nước nuôi trồng thủy sản là một trong các vấn đề lớn liên quan đến cả môi trường và sức khỏe người tiêu dùng. Nghiên cứu này đã lựa chọn và tiến hành khảo sát chất lượng nước của chín ao hồ nuôi thủy sản trên địa bàn thành phố Hồ Chí Minh. Kết quả phân tích cho thấy các ao hồ trên bị ô nhiễm hữu cơ nặng với thông số COD và BOD5 đều không đạt chuẩn B2 theo quy chuẩn kỹ thuật quốc gia về chất lượng nước mặt (QCVN 08-MT:2015/BTNMT). Về mặt ô nhiễm các chất dinh dưỡng, nồng độ N-NH4+ và N-NO2- đa số chỉ thỏa mãn loại B2, thậm chí vượt ngưỡng quy định của cột B2. Các giá trị của thông số chlorophyll-a đều lớn hơn 10 μg/L, chứng tỏ các ao hồ khảo sát đều đang trong tình trạng phú dưỡng. Thêm vào đó, kết quả tính toán chỉ số TSI cho thấy hầu hết các vị trí nghiên cứu đang ở trạng thái siêu phú dưỡng và photpho được xác định là yếu tố giới hạn sự phú dưỡng của các vị trí khảo sát nêu trên.

A ce titre, dans l'equation complexe que constitue l'organisation du centre des villes, nous nous sommes efforces de prendre en compte la dimension sociale, symbolique, economique et urbanistique du commerce, sans ignorer pour autant les exigences de sa modernisation. Des lors, l'objectif de la presente etude est de saisir la place et le role du commerce comme determinant des mutations en cours. Le changement commercial n'est-il alors qu'un reflet du changement economique initie par le "doi moi", le renouveau en langue vietnamienne, ou bien, accelere-t-il cette mutation? toutes ces transformations ayant des consequences fondamentales quant a l'organisation de l'espace a ho chi minh ville et plus particulierement dans son centre historique represente par le 1er arrondissement, il nous fallait connaitre les consequences de cette evolution et l'impact des mutations urbaines sur le commerce de detail du centre ville. Cela signifie que la problemacite de l'enjeu a trouver des equilibres, aptes a repondre a cette formidable dynamique du commerce, merite une reflexion consequente que nous avons articulee autour de 3 grandes parties : - ho chi minh ville : de l'emporium au centre commercial, etapes historiques et defi au present. - l'appareil commercial du 1er arrondissement comme element d'explication du changement. - urbanisme commercial et transition vers l'economie de marche, regard sur l'avenir.

Full textAbstract:
Questa tesi ha come obiettivo analizzare i fattori antecedenti alla Guerra del Vietnam che portarono gli Stati Uniti a percepire il leader vietnamita Ho Chi Minh e il suo Fronte Viet Minh come un nemico, sebbene le loro relazioni nella prima metà degli anni '40 furono apparentemente positive. I decenni frenetici tra la seconda metà del 1800 e l'inizio del 1900 segnarono il Vietnam, che fu prima sottoposto all'imperialismo francese e in seguito al controllo dell'Impero Giapponese. Il desiderio d'indipendenza risvegliò varie personalità vietnamite, tra le quali Ho Chi Minh che in parte riuscì a esaudirlo. Durante la Seconda Guerra Mondiale, a seguito dei suoi viaggi in giro per il mondo, Ho Chi Minh vide negli Stati Uniti la chiave per liberare il suo paese, nonostante la sua carriera nell'Internazionale Comunista. Nel 1945 collaborò con l'Office of Strategic Services (OSS) americano in operazioni anti-giapponesi e, finita la guerra, dichiarò il Vietnam indipendente. Nel mentre, gli agenti OSS operanti in Indocina vennero ritirati, sebbene rimasero simpatizzanti per il neo-presidente e la sua causa. I francesi colsero l’attimo per riprendere il controllo sul territorio, portando alla prima Guerra d'Indocina. Come verrà dimostrato, la mancanza di una chiara politica estera americana riguardo l'Indocina, il loro sostegno graduale ai francesi, la crescente tendenza anticomunista e l'ambiguità di Ho Chi Minh determinarono come lo 'Zio Ho' divenne nemesi degli Stati Uniti.

Full textAbstract:
Fluoroquinolones are amongst the most effective antimicrobials used to treat infectious diseases caused by members of the Enterobacteriaceae. The rapid spread of fluoroquinolone resistant Enterobacteriaceae threatens the future effectiveness of this widely used group of antimicrobial compounds. Fluoroquinolone resistance in Enterobacteriaceae in Vietnam highlights an approaching crisis in antimicrobial therapy of Enterobacteriaceae infections as fluoroquinolone resistant infections may require expensive alternative treatments. Furthermore, a lack of alternative drugs for treating fluoroquinolone resistant bacteria also contributes to the difficulty in treating such infections. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and mechanisms of fluoroquinolone resistance in commensal Enterobacteriaceae isolated from two different populations resident in Ho Chi Minh City; hospitalized patients and healthy volunteers. I investigated the prevalence of mutations in the DNA gyrase and the topoisomerase gene, the target of the fluoroquinolones and the main resistance mechanisms in Enterobacteriaceae. Additionally, I investigated the spectrum of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) determinants, a more contemporary mechanism of fluoroquinolone resistance. By using whole plasmid sequencing, bioinformatics and a miniaturized DNA nanoarray, an association of PMQR determinants with other antimicrobial resistance genes including blaLAP_2, which confers resistance to ~-lactam antimicrobials, was found. Moreover, diverse patterns of antimicrobial resistance between isolates from hospital and community populations were revealed. An increase in the quantity ofPMQR determinants isolated from rectal swabs of children treated with antimicrobials was also demonstrated using a gene specific real-time PCR. I surmise that variety antimicrobial classes might contribute to an increase in copy number and eo- selection of PMQR determinants in Ho Chi Minh City. Fluoroquinolone resistance in Enterobacteriaceae has increased oyer time and this class of antimicrobial is still commonly used, to treat infection caused by such organisms. Understanding fluoroquinolone resistance mechanisms and their relationship to other antimicrobial resistance mechanisms in Enterobacteriaceae should play an important role in the control of the spread of antimicrobial resistance genes and aid treatment strategies for clinicians in Vietnam.

Self care is very important for patients with diabetes type 2, as it can reduce complications. A proper and functioning self-care requires, clear and relevant information and instructions from the health care givers. Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the self care activities of patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 in Ho Chi Minh City and compare these between genders. Research questions: How do patients with diabetes mellitus type 2, in Ho Chi Minh City, practice self care activities (diet, exercise, blood sugar test, foot care, smoking, medication and self-care recommendation)? Are there any differences between genders concerning these self-care activities? Method: A descriptive and comparative cross-section design with a quantitative method was used. Dorothea Orem's theoretical framework was also used. The data was collected at the Department of Endocrinology and the Endocrinology Clinic, Choray hospital, in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It was 100 participants who answered a questionnaire about their diabetes self-care activities. Results: Most of the participants had a good self-care of their diabetes type 2. A majority of the participants had got several self-care recommendations from their health-care givers concerning diet, exercise, medication and blood-glucose control. It was a significant difference between gender in favour for the male gender concerning the statements high fat food, participating in 30 minutes of exercise, check inside the shoes, dry between toes, counselling about stop smoking, tried herbal medicine as medication. Conclusion: The diabetes type 2 patients in Ho Chi Minh City need to get more information about self-care concerning blood-glucose, diet and exercise. Both genders need to adopt a healthy lifestyle into their daily life to reduce the risk of developing diabetes complications.
Egenvården är mycket viktig för patienter med diabetes typ 2, eftersom den kan minska komplikationer. En optimal och väl fungerande egenvård kräver tydlig och relevant information och instruktioner från vårdpersonalen. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka egenvårdsaktiviteter hos patienter med diabetes mellitus typ 2 i Ho Chi Minh City och jämföra dessa mellan kön. Frågeställningar: Hur utför patienter med diabetes mellitus typ 2 i Ho Chi Minh City sina egenvårds aktiviteter (kost, motion, blodsocker test, fotvård, rökning, läkemedel och egenvårds rekommendationer)? Finns det någon skillnad mellan könen beträffande dessa egenvårdsaktiviteter? Metod: En beskrivande och jämförande tvärsnitts studie med kvantitativ metod har använts. Dorothea Orems egenvårdsteori har även använts. Data samlades in vid Institutionen för Endokrinologi och endokrinologi kliniken på Choray hospital, i Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Det var 100 deltagare som besvarade ett frågeformulär med frågor om diabetes egenvårds aktiviteter. Resultat: De flesta deltagare hade en god egenvård av sin diabetes typ 2. En majoritet av deltagarna hade fått flera egenvårds rekommendationer från sin vårdgivare om kost, motion och medicinering. Det var en signifikant skillnad mellan könen med fördel för männen angående påståendena gällande fettrik mat, deltagande i 30 minuters träning, kontrollera insidan av skorna, torka mellan tårna, rådgivning om att sluta röka samt provat naturläkemedel som medicinering. Slutsats: Diabetes typ 2 patienter i Ho Chi Minh City behöver få mer information om egenvård av blodglukos, mat och fysisk träning. Båda könen behöver få en hälsosammare livsstil i sin vardag för att minska risken för komplikationer.

Full textAbstract:
Shigella is an enteric pathogen that is the most common bacterial cause of dysentery globally, most frequently infecting children in developing countries. Resistance to common antimicrobials is now widespread and is beginning to make the management of this often-severe infection very challenging. Vaccination offers a realistic option for preventing and controlling shigellosis, yet several critical questions need to be answered before a successfully licensed vaccine can be introduced. Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), in Vietnam, is a rapidly industrialising urban setting with a high burden of paediatric diarrhoeal disease and is representative of many similar regions globally. Through the structure of a community cohort, the incidence of diarrhoeal disease in children under the age of five in HCMC was found to be 70/100 child years, indicating that diarrhoea remains a significant cause of paediatric morbidity in this location. Furthermore, children living at low elevation in the centre of the city were found to be at increased risk of reported diarrhoeal disease during periods of higher temperature and flooding, highlighting a particular community at risk. This work also documents Shigella as a common cause of dysentery in both hospital and the community in HCMC, with community-based incidence estimated to be 1.5/100 child years in 2-5 year olds. Resistance against a variety of antimicrobials in Shigella was detected, and organisms harbouring mutations against fluoroquinolone activity were found to survive for longer periods in the presence of ciprofloxacin in vitro, suggesting a potential epidemiological advantage against sensitive strains. Finally, the half-life of maternal immunity against the O-antigen of S. sonnei was found to 43 days and by five months of age less than half of children in HCMC have any circulating maternal protection. Work from this thesis will help inform future vaccine rollout efforts and fills important gaps in the current literature surrounding this increasingly challenging infection.

Full textAbstract:
From a native researcher's perspective, the thesis shows that although not acknowledged officially, migrant social exclusion does exist in the city in nominally communist Vietnam in a period of capitalist globalisation. Migrant social exclusion has three major inter-related dimensions, namely vulnerability, morality and legality, which are both characteristics and causes of their exclusion. Credentialism, exploitation and de-networking are important concepts that characterise the vulnerability of socially excluded migrants. Morally, they are excluded from a number of fundamental human rights. Legally, they are considered outsiders in both urban policies and services, which results from their exclusion from urban citizenship. Furthermore, migrant children are excluded from two distinctive rights for them, namely those to protection and development. Together, the dimensions constitute a theoretical framework for analysing this issue in Vietnam's major cities. Migrant social exclusion requires us to rethink the effects of capitalism on new social groups in transitional cities.l In particular, it has changed the focus of capitalist effects from the conventional Marxist critique of exploitation to social exclusion. Social exclusion is a negative thing for both the people excluded and the society in which they are residing. Migrant social exclusion indicates one of the negative impacts on social solidarity and unity, the core values that Vietnam has been proud to possess and know how to employ for its war victories. Importantly, after the two revolutions, and the market reform under the pressures of globalisation, the social development in modern Vietnam is regressive. The market reform has brought back to the city a stratified society where people increasingly tend to belong to different social groups with different statuses, interests and concerns. Regarding future directions, it is essential to affirm that migrants have fundamental human and legal rights to claim in cities for them and their families. To facilitate their inclusion, policies are required to pay attention to the inclusive role of universal citizenship, the facilitating role of policy and institutions and the protective role of participatory democracy. I Transitional cities refer to those that are transiting from a state planning system to a market mechanism in post-communist countries. 3

Full textAbstract:
The focus of the global diarrhoeal disease burden is in low and middle-income countries, where the disease epidemiology and aetiology is highly variable and not well characterised. The aim of this thesis was to challenge the knowledge gaps regard ing diarrhoeal disease in children under the age of five in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), Vietnam. Firstly, a pilot surveillance in southern Vietnam demonstrated a preponderance of enteric viruses in hospitalised diarrhoeal children and reported the first rotav irus GI2 in Vietnam; despite being geographically disproportional distributed, rotav irus (RoV) predom inated fo llowed by norovirus (NoV). On the basis of these data, a prospective multi-centre hospita lbased surveil!ance was conducted in HeMe to study diarrhoeal disease in detail and \ investigate the extent and the ep idemiology of the hypothes ized NoV emergence. Faecal , specimens from diarrhoea patients and diarrhoea-free chi ldren were screened for a panel of pathogens; RoV was again identified as the predominant agent, fo llowed by NoV. Enteric bacteria were found at smaller proportions, and exhibited excessive antim icrobial res istance. As NoV was found to be highly endemic and a major cause of hospita lisation, a risk factor analysis for NoV infections was performed. Ri sk facto rs in cluded young age, residential crowding and contact with symptomatic individ uals. Additional analys is on the phylogenetic structure of NoV stra ins demonstrated diverse genotypes circulating, most commonly belonging to the GIIA lineage. A spatioremporal analysis of 0 11.4 variants, GI1.4-2006b (Minerva) and the novel emergent GIL4-20 10 (New Orleans), suggested a strain replacement phenomenon and detected a cluster of 0 11.4-201 0 in the northeastern part of the city. These studies indicate prominent di sease dynam ics involved rapid evolution of vi ruses, necessitate studies on strain distribution and genomic analyses and potenti al source additi onally f contributing to genetic variations (animal reservoirs), and suggest considerable impact of RoV and NoV immunisation in Vietnam.

Phan, Anh T. "Evaulation of business and management training for private businesses in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam." Thesis, Bucks New University, 2008. http://bucks.collections.crest.ac.uk/10114/.
Full textAbstract:
The process of economic innovation in Vietnam since the late 1980s presented its human resources in the private sector with constant challenges in terms of continuous improvement for operating effectiveness and efficiency. The challenges have been met by substantial investment of resources in business and management training. Returns from this training, however, have not received due attention. The study sets out to examine the reality of acquiring and utilising business and management training in local private businesses in Ho Chi Minh City, the country’s economic centre. In doing so, the study is expected to provide a better understanding of the characteristics of business and management training in Vietnam, and how this human resources development activity assists private businesses in a transitional economy. Based on Kirkpatrick’s evaluation framework, findings of the study revealed not only different approaches to business and management training but also the limited effects of the training on the trainees and private companies. Knowledgemania, or training for the sake of pursuing knowledge, was still very prevalent among the group of ‘Oriental’ companies whilst a more practical approach towards training aimed at meeting explicit business objectives was adopted by companies exposed to Western management practices. The research revealed that among the factors facilitating or hindering learning transfer within the case study companies, the ability to manage the training process and cultural values were the most influential. The research study also introduced two refined frameworks for training evaluation, aimed at small family and larger private businesses respectively. These refined frameworks incorporate not only the spirit of simplicity and practicality of Kirkpatrick’s framework but also relevant contextual factors. These frameworks are, therefore, able to serve as evaluation tools to reveal both training outcomes and spot the opportunities to further improve management of training. The experience and process of developing the frameworks gained in this research may assist future researchers when undertaking training evaluation in other business contexts.

This research was conducted to contribute to the organization of existing
knowledge about medicinal plants among rural workers from the Landless Workers Movement (MST) in Ho Chi Minh settlement, in Nova União (Minas Gerais Brazil), intending to promote education, utilization and reflection that could lead to workers health improvement. The methodology used was actionresearch. This research was developed within Coletivo TERRAS, an interdisciplinary group, which works to facilitate, animate and nurture the dialogue between formal and popular knowledge. The following qualitative techniques were employed: militant observation, reflection, field journal, photographs, interviews and actions. Three aspects were simultaneously developed: 1. Elaboration of means to accomplish pedagogical and practical actions determined by the settled families to improve local utilization of medicinal plants; 2. Description of the workers existing knowledge concerning this resources actual use; 3. Generation and deepening of reflection about the
positive and negative aspects of using medicinal plants and industrialized drugs from the perspectives of settled families. The need and importance of rescuing the popular knowledge concerning medicinal plants in order to improve health outcomes of Brazilian people has become obvious in this study. There is a need to give up naiveness and acknowledge that science has not only the role of describing the state of things, but also of transforming reality. Tightening of bonds between Social Movements such as MST and universities promotes a
mutual growth that contributes to both university students humane formation (transforming them in professionals more sensitive to the Brazilian reality) and technical-scientific formation of Social Movements militants. Dialogue is crucial. This research was one of the many indispensable small steps towards liberation of all, in direction of a fair, participative and equalitarian society.Essa pesquisa teve o propósito de contribuir na organização do conhecimento sobre as plantas medicinais no assentamento Ho Chi Minh, do Movimento dos Trabalhadores Rurais Sem Terra (MST), no Município de Nova União MG, a fim de promover educação, utilização e reflexão, que resultassem em benefícios na saúde os/asassentados/as. Para tal, optou-se pela pesquisaação. Essa pesquisa foi realizada dentro do Coletivo TERRAS, um grupo interdisciplinar que trabalha no sentido de facilitar, animar e cultivar o diálogo entre o saber formal e saber popular. Recursos metodológicos da pesquisa qualitativa foram empregados: observação militante, reflexão, diário de campo, fotografias, entrevistas e ações. Foram simultaneamente trabalhados três aspectos: 1.

Full textAbstract:
La rivière Saigon, qui constitue un sous bassin du fleuve Nha Be, est située dans le sud du Vietnam. Cette rivière a une longueur d'environ 250 km et le bassin versant total à une surface de 4717 km2. Le réservoir de Dau Tieng, situé en amont de la rivière Saigon, a été construit pour mieux gérer l’irrigation, lutter contre les inondations et contrôler l’intrusion d’eau salée. En traversant HCMC, la rivière Saigon est connectée à plusieurs canaux puis rejoint la rivière Dongnai pour devenir le fleuve Nha Be qui traverse la zone de mangrove de Can Gio et se jette dans la mer de l'Est. La rivière Saigon et son bassin versant sont situés dans la plaine côtière et sont soumis au balancement quotidien des marées.L'objectif général de cette thèse est (i) d’évaluer l'état trophique de la rivière Saigon - Dongnai, (ii) d’étudier les processus à l’origine de la dynamique des nutriments, en particulier le rôle des sédiments en suspension, du mélange turbulent et du gradient de salinité, afin d'estimer la capacité de rétention par rapport aux flux d'éléments nutritifs; (ii) d’utiliser ces mesures de terrain et de laboratoire pour envisager une simulation numérique de ce système estuarien.La première étape de cette thèse a consisté en une étude des concentrations en nutriments (N, P, Si) sur quatre sites d’échantillonnage dans le système de la rivière Saigon – Dongnai. Les mesures ont été réalisées deux fois par mois de juillet 2015 à décembre 2017 pour évaluer les niveaux de concentration en éléments nutritifs et l’état d’eutrophisation. Cette thèse a mis en évidence un excès de nutriments dans HCMC avec des concentrations de NH4+ et de PO43- atteignant en moyenne 0.7 mgN L-1 et 0.07 mgP L-1, respectivement. Nous avons observé que des rejets domestiques non traités entraînaient une dégradation de la qualité de l’eau de la rivière Saigon, avec une valeur extrême de biomasse algale (150 µChl-a L-1) et des périodes d’hypoxie (DO < 2 mg L-1), principalement en saison sèche. L’eutrophisation de la rivière dans la zone urbaine dense n'a pas d'effet clair en aval, car la masse d'eau eutrophie de la rivière Saigon est efficacement mélangée avec les masses d'eau de mer et de la Dongnai pendant chaque cycle de marée. Ce qui met en évidence le rôle tampon (capacité de métabolisation) de l’estuaire entre les apports amont et la mer.Sur la base d'enquêtes de terrain et d’expérience en laboratoire, nous avons évalué les causes de l'eutrophisation de la rivière et étudié la capacité d'adsorption-désorption du phosphore sur les sédiments en suspension dans le gradient de salinité. Les enquêtes sur le terrain ont montré un impact clair de la mégapole, le P total augmentant de trois fois dans le centre de HCMC, par rapport aux valeurs en amont. En aval, dans la zone estuarienne mélangée par des marées, le P total descend à moins de 0.5 gP kg-1. Les expériences en laboratoire ont montré le rôle clé de la concentration en sédiments cohésifs en suspension sur la capacité d’adsorption de P sur les particules dans le gradient de salinité.Dans cette thèse, nous avons également analysé une base de données des nutriments, des sédiments en suspension et des rejets d’eau de 2012 à 2016 (données du service de surveillance de la qualité de l’eau vietnamien de la province d’HCMV). Neuf sites le long de la rivière Saigon et un site dans la rivière Dongnai ont permis de déterminer l’état de référence à l’amont et à l’aval d’Ho Chi Minh Ville. Les flux calculés permettent de dresser un premier bilan sédimentaire et nutritif à l’échelle des fleuves Saigon – Dongnai, de discuter de la contribution de chaque sous bassin aux flux totaux et de dresser des hypothèses sur l’état géomorphologique et environnemental actuel et futur des zones estuariennes et côtièresThe Saigon River, a part of Saigon – Dongnai River basin located in Southern Vietnam, is about 250 km long with a catchment area of 4,717 km2. The Dau Tieng reservoir in the upstream of the Saigon River has been constructed for irrigation, flood protection purposes and the control of the intrusion of saline water. When flowing through HCMC, Saigon River is connected with canals and then joins Dongnai River to become the Nha Be River flowing through Can Gio Mangrove to the East Sea. Draining a low elevation coastal zone (LECZ), Saigon River is affected by the asymmetric semi-diurnal tides.The general goal of this thesis is to (i) assess trophic status in the Saigon – Dongnai River, (ii) assess the processes that lead nutrient behavior in the salinity gradient to estimate retention capacity with respect to the nutrients fluxes and (iii) calculate nutrient budgets to further be used for numerical simulations.The first step of this thesis consisted in a survey of nutrient concentrations (N, P, Si) at four sampling sites within the Saigon – Dongnai River system, which was carried out bi-monthly from July 2015 to December 2017, allowing to quantify the levels of nutrient concentrations and of indicators of eutrophication. This thesis pointed out an excess of nutrients in HCMC with concentrations of NH4+ and PO43- averaging to 0.7 mgN L-1 and 0.07 mgP L-1, respectively. We observed that untreated domestic discharges lead to the degradation of Saigon River’s water quality with extreme value of algal biomass (up 150 µChl-a L-1) and hypoxia conditions occurring episodically (DO < 2 mg L-1) during dry season. The eutrophic issue in the city center has no clear effect downstream because eutrophic water mass from Saigon River is efficiently mixed with Dongnai and sea water masses during the semi-diurnal tidal cycle, leading to efficient metabolism of nutrients within the estuarine partBased on field and laboratory surveys, we assessed the eutrophication of the river, and investigated P adsorption-desorption capacity onto suspended sediment (SS) within the salinity gradient. Field surveys showed a clear impact of the megacity, total P increasing three fold in HCMC center, as compared with upstream values. Downstream, in the tidally mixed estuarine area, the total P lowered to less than 0.5 gP kg-1. Laboratory experiments were carried out to characterize the influence of SS concentrations, salinity and turbulence on sorption/desorption processes. Among these observed variables, SS concentration was shown to be the main driver for adsorption capacity of P onto SS in salinity gradient. This underlines the role of cohesive sediment dynamics, as an important driver of nutrient dynamic in this estuarine river system.In this thesis, we analyzed the nutrients, suspended sediments and water discharges database from the Vietnamese Center of Monitoring of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment (period 2012 to 2016). Nine sites along the Saigon River and one site in the Dongnai River were used to identify the reference water status before HCMC and the increasing fluxes from upstream to downstream. The calculated fluxes allow drawing a first sediment and nutrients budget at the scale of the Saigon – Dongnai Rivers and discussing the contribution of each sub basins to the total fluxes to the estuarine and coastal zones.

The potential risk for cancer cause due to exposure of Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) (Fig.1) is a national concerning due to the increasing emission of BaP in urban areas. It is difficult and time consuming to determine BaP in all environmental compartments to assess potential human exposure. A multimedia transport and multi pathway model (CalTOX) was used to determine the concentration of BaP in all environmental compartments as well as evaluating the differences in exposure between children and adults in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC). A range of values was used for each model input which resulted in the possible range of media concentrations and risk to BaP. A sensitivity analysis determines which influence each input parameter has on the outcome variance. The model was validated by comparison of predicted concentrations with measured concentrations in air. Uncertainty and variability analysis were also performed together to investigate their contribution to the outcome. The predicted exposure risk for a child was 2.20 times higher than for an adult. This indicates that children are important groups when calculating the exposure and risk to BaP.

Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic disease that causes illness and death over the whole world. There are a little available data about COPD patients in Vietnam and how the disease affects their health related quality of life (HRQL). Aim: The aim of this study was to examine HRQL among patients with COPD in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and investigate differences in HRQL between men and women with COPD. Method: This was a descriptive study with a cross-sectional design. The method was quantitative by using a questionnaire. The study was performed at the respiratory department at Cho Ray Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The sampling was made through a consecutive sample. The questionnaire was based on Short Form 36 (SF-36) which is a widely used questionnaire to measure HRQL. The answers from the questionnaires were turned into a scale where 0 represent the lowest possible HRQL and 100 represent the highest possible HRQL. Results: The results showed that patients with COPD have a low HRQL. Mean value for HRQL in the total group of respondents was 22.42.The result also showed that women suffering from COPD have a significant lower HRQL than men concerning total HRQL (P-value= 0.04), general health (P-value= 0.02) and pain (P-value= 0.05). Conclusion: Patients suffering from COPD in Ho Chi Minh City have a low score of HRQL. Better routines and knowledge about the symptoms and caring for these patients are needed.

Full textAbstract:
Vietnam is a country ranking the 12th most populous country in the world. Ho Chi Minh City is a large city with a high rate of urbanization and rapid growth of population. The population is more and more concentrated in this city, and increases the demand for high water use. Most of people in the city are provided by piped water with safe quality. However, in some areas, with lack of clean water, people have to buy water from tankers carrying water or they have to use their own wells without any guarantee for the water quality.
Based on the results of the survey questionnaire and findings from in-depth interviews, the thesis describes the actual water supply situation particularly in Binh Thanh District, and generally in Ho Chi Minh City. Then, it points out the main causes of the water stress situation. It clarifies further, that the impacts of water stress depend on three sustainable development factors: economy, environment and social stability. The thesis concludes that the water reuse and the use of rainwater are alternative resources for the water supply sector in Ho Chi Minh City in the future. Finally, some recommendations to reach a more efficient and sustainable water supply governance are illustrated.

Effective decision making in land use planning and development is critical for sustainable urban development as these plans have an impact on economic, social, cultural, and ecological issues related to such development. However, to make effective decisions, residential developers need to engage in lengthy processes while using the available resources and support. The psychological aspects of planning and development behaviors play an important role in the process of making decisions. Therefore, it is necessary to study how planning and development behaviors influence the decision-making process and in what way they affect the results. The research question addressed in this study is what psychological traits dominate and influence planning and development behaviors? To answer this question, lessons from behavioral economics will be applied to explain residential developers’ behaviors in making decisions regarding land use development, particularly in choosing locations for investments and project targeting. A key urban area in Vietnam – Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) – will be studied as an example for this research. The findings from surveys and in-depth interviews with residential developers in HCMC showed that many of these developers are not reluctant to increase their investments in new urban areas or rural areas, even if they need to invest more in the infrastructure as a secondary investment to increase their project value. It seems that residential developers not only affect the city’s plans regarding land use but also steer these plans in new directions by creating fresh demand in line with location trends in new areas. In particular, residential developers have deeply influenced urban planning by building an infrastructure system that supports the development of new urban areas, turning undeveloped areas into new towns, and improving local welfare. Residential developers in HCMC both build the city and contribute to urban sprawl. In recent years, they have wielded more influence in guiding trends and creating demand for residential land use without exhibiting any particular concern for future urban planning. They can build on greenfield areas according to their own plans and using their own capital. They can bargain with local authorities to change land titles and obtain quick approvals. The trend to invest more heavily in residential projects in new urban areas and rural areas is on the rise. This trend could affect the current plans of the city or even alter these plans. The present research found that psychological behaviors such as mental accounting, the endowment effect, and narrow bracketing partly contribute to residential developers’ decision making regarding land use, particularly when choosing locations for investment. Residential developers are motivated by profit to ignore risks and take chances on secondary investments. They are attracted, in other words, to profit-making opportunities for such secondary investments. In addition, residential developers are willing to accept the risks involved in investing in numerous projects in order to accumulate profits. Residential developers make secondary investments in social welfare facilities such as roads, parks, and bridges in greenfield areas to increase their property values and attract customers as well as to bargain with local authorities to obtain approval for their projects. While the loss of previous projects can make residential developers more reluctant to invest in new projects, they continue to be attracted to the huge profit-making opportunity provided by such projects. They are not willing to lose a profit-making opportunity with high potential to their competitors unless their finances have been so heavily damaged by the loss of their previous projects that they have no more funding for the new project and cannot recover in time to bid for it. Residential developers prefer to have many simultaneous projects to reduce market risks and cover their losses on other projects in order to maximize their total profits. They typically invest in at least two projects concurrently, but these projects are often at different stages of completion. As a result, psychological behaviors such as mental accounting, the endowment effect, and narrow bracketing influence their decision-making ability with regard to their investments. Above all, profit is the most powerful factor in making these decisions, even more so than planning regulations or the need for further infrastructure. These behaviors were apparent among the surveyed residential developers in HCMC. Furthermore, it is recommended that planners work closely with residential developers to manage urban sprawl in HCMC.

Full textAbstract:
This study focuses on how the expanding market for pirated music in Vietnam has led to transnational flows of texts and genres, and to changes in how the state, music companies, pirates, and consumers deal with one another. Using theories put forth by Roger Wallis and Krister Malm (1984) and Shujen Wang and Jonathan Zhu (2003), the goal of my research is to identify major technological, economic, and organizational shifts taking place within the distribution and consumption of compact discs (CDs) in Ho Chi Minh City. This work suggests that Vietnam operates outside of our traditional understanding of the music industry or cultural flows. Unauthorized music products are helping to create a demand for all types of music in Vietnam and this begs us to question whether piracy is as negative for this country as previously thought. This thesis argues that the piracy in HCMC is a rare case of defiance and triumph over major global corporations. This study explores the magnitude of international copyright conventions, intellectual property rights enforcement, the structure of the domestic industry and the high profitability and affordability of piracy. Using a qualitative case studies approach, this examination looks at the different political, legal and regulatory frameworks that control the trajectories of music piracy in Ho Chi Minh City.

As Vietnam is currently in the process of reformation, development and integration into the global economy, higher education is of increasingly importance in creating high – quality human resources. That mission mainly belongs to higher education institutions in Vietnam, especially high – ranked universities. Accordingly, in order to improve the quality of education and training, one of the issues raised to any education institution is to enhance student satisfaction inherently regarded as a main factor that defines an education and training success. Positive image and good relationship with students are able to help universities not only improve training quality but also their reputation and competitiveness to attract and retain more talented students. As a matter of course, Banking University of Ho Chi Minh is not an exception of that principle. Even though a large number of economists have researched on theoretical basis of student satisfaction with university’s training quality in many kinds of their thesis, it is not definitely easy for education managers to apply that theoretical basis to managerial practice. Moreover, in the current context of constant development and increasing competition with education institutions around the world, it is never certain that what students are totally satisfied with now will maintain true till further stages. That strongly indicates the importance of further research on student satisfaction with higher education so as to keep pace with social development and to satisfy society’s demand for more skilled labor. This research is conducted on the scale of more than 200 students who have been studying in Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City. A positive result of overall student satisfaction with training and services of the university is suggested. As result of this research, factors affecting student satisfaction in Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City includes: curricula, training orientation, lecturers, financial issue, extra-curricular activities and study condition. Therefore, this research focused mainly on analyzing influence of these factors on overall student satisfaction in Banking University of Ho Chi Minh City, in which Financial Issue and Curricula are the two most significant affecting factors meanwhile the others are of nearly the same influence levels. From the analysis of the advantages and disadvantages, certain practical solutions are proposed in every aspect, especially in terms of five determinants, to not only utilize its training quality but also improves its weaknesses. In summary, student satisfaction improvement should be put in top priority of BUH’s both short – term and long – term goals to help the university build closer relationship with students as well as attract more and more talents.

The Markowitz portfolio theory is the foundation of modern portfolio theory. The mean-variance efficient portfolios play an important role in the theory. However, the efficient portfolios constructed by the mean-variance method often involve taking on extreme long and short positions, but institutional investors are generally not allowed to hold short positions and are required to meet certain diversification requirements. Hence, the institutional investors often impose non negativity and some kind of upper bounds on portfolio weights when they are constructing portfolio. In this paper, Ho Chi Minh City stock market as the research object data sources the author collect research data from the Ho Chi Ming stock market. Investor risk preference and behavior based on the efficient frontier line are divided into conservative, stable and active type this research uses the mean variance method (MV) to analyze the sample data,The empirical results show that three kinds of risk measurement models with passive return rates than the broader market rate of return to the good, and the average performance of the best variance model. In addition, the investment portfolio with strong positive investment behavior maximize its returns.

Minh Hương which originally known as "Xiang" is the meaning of the descendant of the Ming Dynasty. Many ministers in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties refused to accept the rule of the Qing Dynasty and fled to Southeast Asian countries. Those who moved to Vietnam were called " Minh Hương （Township）" because they wanted to "continue the thriving of the Ming Dynasty." Since Minh Hương is mostly married to Vietnamese women, later Minh Hương refers to the biracial children of the Chinese and Vietnamese, and the ethnic groups are registered as the "Kinh" instead of the Chinese. In the common sense, biracial children who grew up from a small age will certainly agree with and integrate into the country of residence （parent’ nationality）. Therefore, it is expected that the descendant of Minh Hương will be integrated into the current society of Vietnam.Through the taxation and other preferential treatments, the Vietnamese authorities made the Minh Hương different from the Chinese who emigrated later. For example, Minh Hương are treated in the same way as Vietnamese and has its own villages and organizations. On one hand, these policies intentionally or unintentionally allow Minh Hương to be integrated into the local area and are regarded as Vietnamese. On the other hand, they can still remain the identity of their own ethnic groups. Until the South Vietnamese government force Minh Hương to as Vietnamese. In 1975, the Vietnamese government integrated Minh Hương into the Kinh rather than an independent ethnic group, so that the identity of Minh Hương is more valuable. There are three questions in this research:（1）The ethnic registration of Minh Hương now is the Kinh. Why are they still willing to continue to remain the identity of the Minh Hương?（2）The ethnic registration of Minh Hương now is the Kinh. How does it remain the identity of the Minh Hương?（3）As a carrier of cultural memory, does the Minh Hương temple has the role of aggregating ethnic consciousness and cultural identity? Through the Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese literatures, this study sorts out the historical background of the Minh Hương and researcher personally took travel to make a lot of observations and studies in Vietnam. This research focuses on the identification of Minh Hương in its factors and methods of remaining identity. Researcher finally sorts out the positive impact and potential crisis of Minh Hương identification through interview datum from Minh Huong Gia Thanh Temple. The findings of this study are summarized as follows:（1）Minh Hương people heve double identity of Minh Huong and Kinh.（2）Minh Hương remain the identity of Minh Hương by their ritual and culture of Minh Huong Gia Thanh Temple.（3）Even Minh Huong Gia Thanh Temple can helps the Minh Hương people to maintain their identity, but the number of members and the number of people participating in the festival gradually decrease, which may make the identity of Minh Huong people become weaker, and become a potential crisis.

Full textAbstract:
The staggering levels of growth and development resulting in a more populous and affluent society that Vietnam is experiencing have resulted in greater levels of consumption and environmental damage from agricultural intensification (over-use of chemical fertilizers) and solid waste pollution. A traditional method touted as a modern solution is organic solid waste recycling and composting. This thesis seeks to determine the potential of compost use in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam based on a decentralized community-based composting scheme. In recent decades, in Vietnam and other developing countries, there has been an emphasis on large-scale, mechanized composting processes using mixed waste as the input material and technologies that are inappropriate for use in a developing country. These processes face high operational costs and a lower quality final product, leading to more problems than they promise to cure. This study examines three institutional models currently advocated in the literature to mange organic waste in developing countries: decentralization, privatization, public-private partnerships. This thesis focuses on how to redefine the manner in which organic waste is composted and concludes in favour of small-scale community-based composting. A small-scale community-based model currently in use in Quy Nhon, in central Vietnam is examined to determine its applicability in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The major contribution of this thesis is the use of institutional models (community-based management, decentralization, privatization, and public-private partnerships) to further understand the system of composting using municipal solid waste in developing countries. This understanding is used to present a framework that outlines the necessary institutional change to facilitate the development of initiatives that would manage organic solid waste.

Nowadays, there are more and more choices of entertainment, receiving information… through different media such as: television, newspaper, Internet, radio… but television is still the most popular choice of most of audiences because of its reality and update. In many type of television programs, news plays an important and main role. That is the reason for many news channel (just perform news programs) being formed. Ho Chi Minh city is the biggest and most developed city in Viet Nam. It is considered a potential environment media field developing rapidly. That indicates the demand of watching television in the south east area is very huge but the competition between television companies are very keen. In Ho Chi Minh city, there are three strong general news channels. They are: HTV9 (a channel of Ho Chi Minh television), VTV1 and VTV9 (channels of governmental television, VTV1 is the strongest news channel in Viet Nam but its location is Hanoi capital, location of VTV9 is Ho chi minh city). That shows they are also the strongest competitors in news television field. In this situation, attracting audience and making them satisfyarevery important factors for a news television channel because these create the rating of television channel, therefore, affect to advertisement profits deeply. So, it is necessary to find out factors affecting to quality of news programs that affect to audience satisfaction. In this study, four important factors, including image and sound technique, content, advertising and time are researched. Besides, in some cases, attracting a new customer is not better having a loyalty customer. So, loyalty customer is also an important factor. The result shows that each of the four factors above has different effect on the general satisfaction of audience but the audience pays most attention to the content of a news program. In term of loyalty, this field becomes more complicated to be defined as the audience does not pay directly. It means that their purchasing decision does not emerge at the time they choose the program or channel.
