    Political - Social Phylosophy of Nguyen Binh Khiem and its Significance for Vietnam in the Current Era

    No full text
    Nguyen Binh Khiem (1491–1585) was a philosopher and one of Vietnam's greatest cultural figures of the 16th century. He was distinguished not only for his contributions to culture and education but also for his profound philosophical thought, particularly his political and social views. He was one of the leading intellectuals of the Later Lê dynasty. His thoughts have greatly contributed to the formation of political and social viewpoints in feudal Vietnam, leaving valuable lessons for the ongoing development of the country. Through his literary works, poetry, and practical activities, as well as his conduct, we can discern his deep political - social ideas. The first thing is his vision was of a peaceful society, one in which harmony prevailed both at the top and bottom of the social order, in which people respected and upheld moral principles. This would be a society of peace and prosperity, a foundational condition for the strength and thriving of the nation. Nguyen Binh Khiem's political thought is also expressed through ideas such as the concept of securing the people’s welfare, placing the people at the center; the critical spirit against and condemnation of feudal warfare. Studying Nguyen Binh Khiem's political - social thought provides a foundation for accurately recognizing the distinctive characteristics and value of his ideas in the development of Vietnamese national thought, as well as their relevance to the ongoing process of building Vietnamese society today

These issues are: (1) Distributional characteristics of stock return; (2) Market efficiency; (3) Market seasonality and (4) Stock return volatility and trading volume relationship. The empirical results suggest that there is serial correlation of the stock prices and stock price do not follow a random walk theory. This inefficiency can be traced to restricted supply of socks, a scarcity of information and the thinness and discontinuity in trading that plague the exchange. The thesis also tests for the presence of seasonal anomalies. There are empirical evidences to support the hypothesis of weekend effect in Vietnamese stock market that has been found in many stock markets. Besides, the empirical results also confirm the well-known volatility clustering in Vietnam daily stock return series and strongly reject the time invariance of the risk return parameter

    An oral history of Lilly Nguyen, born in 1979 in California. Her parents left Vietnam in one of the first waves and identify as refugees, or more specifically, boat people. Her family moved many times during her childhood, but she calls Orange County, California her home. She discusses growing up a headstrong person and balancing parental pressures, gender roles, and her identity as a Vietnamese American. Having grown up in Orange County, she felt the need to explore other worlds, which led to her interest in academia that eventually brought her to do research for one year in Hanoi, Vietnam. She currently resides in Irvine, California with her husband.Recorded Digitall

Variation and sexual dimorphism: Measurements and morphological characters of the type series are provided in Table 1 and photographs of paratypes in life are presented in Fig. 6. Males are larger than females (SVL 60.1 ± 8.3 mm, n = 11 males vs. 50.3± 7.3 mm, n = 8 females). Males have a larger head than females (HL/ SVL 0.47 vs. 0.44, HW / SVL 0.48 vs. 0.46). The male specimens have a nuptial pad on Finger I. The males have robust fanglike odontoid processes, which are less pronounced in the females. The females contained yellowish cream eggs of varying sizes. One juvenile (unvouchered) had a yellowish dorsum with distinct brown marking (Figure 6F). ......continued on the next page Etymology. The specific epithet “ phuyenensis ” refers to the type locality of the new species, Phu Yen Province. As common names we suggest Phu Yen Wart Frog (English), Ếch nhẽo phú yên (Vietnamese). Ecological notes. Specimens were found between 19:00 and 23:00 in the head-water of small, rocky streams (Fig. 7A). They were found in the water or on the ground of stream banks at elevations above 300 m. Males were sometimes found in small water pools with two or three females nearby. The surrounding habitat was secondary forest of large, medium and small hardwoods mixed with shrubs and vines. Air temperature at the sites was 20.5–26.3 oC and relative humidity was 73–96%. The females collected in March, August, and September contained yellowish cream eggs of varying sizes. Male advertisement calls and tadpoles of the species have not been recorded during our field surveys. Other amphibian species found at the sites included Leptobrachella macrops (Duong, Do, Ngo, Nguyen & Poyarkov), Megophrys elfina (Poyarkov, Duong, Orlov, Gogoleva, Vassilieva, Nguyen, Nguyen, Nguyen, Che & Mahony), Limnonectes poilani (Bourret), Odorrana morafkai (Bain, Lathrop, Murphy, Orlov & Ho), Kurixalus cf. banaensis (Bourret), and Rhacophorus annamensis (Smith).

Conclusion 55MasterABSTRACT Vietnam is now on the way to access WTO and actively integrate into the global economy. To do so, Vietnam has to reform its economy to adapt the world-wide competition and meet the requirements for that integration. One of very important sector that must be reformed as soon as good is financial sector. During nearly 20 of implementation ?Renovation? process, known as doi moi, Vietnam has achieved significant successes in reforming its weak and inefficient financial system. Several big commercial banks were established and have been operated independently with State Bank of Vietnam. In addition to the state bank of Vietnam, there is a group of joint stock banks that are permitted to mobilize money and make loans. Recently, the stock market has been opened with two security stock exchange centers at the North and the South. Vietnamese government is also trying to improve its financial legal framework to create more favorable conditions for accelerating the financial sector reform process. However, the financial system of Vietnam remains very thin. The percentage of non-performing debt in banking system, which is still dominated by state, is still considerable high. There was little consumer lending and few financial instruments were available. The secondary credit markets and reinsurance markets that server to offset uncertainty and risks in advanced economies were almost entirely absent. Therefore, the demand to reform the financial sector is extreme necessary, especially when this country is trying to be a member of WTO by the end of 2006. The government has implemented many programs, policies?to improve this financial sector from 1986 up to now. However, Vietnamese financial reform process is still a controversial issue that wastes a lot of ink and paper of many economists, policy makers?What steps should be taken to restructure the banking system? How and in what way to develop capital market effectively? What do the financial system must prepare to access WTO smoothly? Korean financial crisis started from 1998 seriously devastated not only its financial system but also the whole economy. Right after that crisis, the Korean government has been carried you a wide range of resolutions to restructure its banking system individually and financial sector as a whole. Thanks to those resolutions, Korean economy gradually recovered and developed consistently. What are the lessons that Vietnam can learn or should not learn from Korean financial sector reform process? Based on Korean lesson, what should the Vietnamese government do to deal with all the above questions? Based on those facts, the research named ?Banking reform in Vietnam: Lesson from restructuring banking system of Korea? is aimed to find out useful experience of Korea in restructuring their banking system and then, make some comments, suggestions or solutions to what the Vietnamese government is doing in order to restructure and reform its financial system to be more competitive and effective
