Challenges that Vietnamese SMEs have been facing
Authors: Vuong Quan Duc Hoang
Published: December 2018

Vietnam economy is facing both opportunities and challenges of the market mechanism and globalization. Social and economic development policies have created positive outcomes. For instance, the economic structural change program has brought out promising results in improving the economic growth and contributing to a more proportionate structure of the industries. At the same time, the progress of integration and participation of Vietnam to international organizations and forums required business enterprises to have appropriate policies in order to adapt to the new business environment and meet the requirements of competition. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), which are often considered as the direct result of the changes in economic thought after Renewal policy (Doi Moi) in 1986, is now playing an important part in the economy in terms of the quantity of enterprises as well as the contribution to the country’s GDP. Changes and continuous movements of the economy supported SMEs to expand and develop but brought into many difficulties and challenges. Therefore, the internal renewal is essential to the survival and development of SMEs themselves. The paper aims at identifying the challenges that SMEs have been facing and the root of those issues. Due to the difficulties in collecting data, the research limits primarily with the analysis on the data from the SMEs in Ho Chi Minh City. However, this limitation had a small impact on the research result as Ho Chi Minh City is the most developed city and has the highest contribution to GDP and the highest number of business enterprises. Finally, the research had provided a number of suggestions which may help SMEs overcome difficulties to develop sustainably and contribute more positively to the overall development of the economy.

Published: December 2018

Many recent studies have focused on satisfaction as one of key concepts in consumer behavior while dissatisfaction has received a much lesser attention. In services where failure is inevitable, customer satisfaction and dissatisfaction may be interwoven along the service buying/ using process. This study examines simultaneously the effect of four service attributes on customer satisfaction and dissatisfaction which lead to the word-of-mouth effect. SEM analysis based on a sample of 382 customers of package tour service reveals that staff attitude and failure recovery have positive effects on satisfaction, but not on dissatisfaction. Then, satisfaction, but not dissatisfaction has a positive impact on word-of-mouth. A negative correlation has also been found between satisfaction and dissatisfaction. Discussions and implications are presented along these statistical results.

Authors: Sihare Mohini , Chouksey Rajendra
Published: December 2018

Aim: Nateglinide is a quick acting anti-diabetic medication whose potent activity lasts for a short duration. One of the dangerous side effects of nateglinide administration is rapid hypoglycemia, a condition that needs to be monitored carefully to prevent unnecessary fatalities. The aim of the study was to develop a longer lasting and slower releasing formulation of nateglinide that could be administered just once daily.

Methods: Matrix tablets of nateglinide were prepared in combination with the polymers hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), eudragits, ethyl cellulose and polyethylene oxide and the formulated drug release patterns were evaluated using in vitro and in vivo studies.

Conclusion: Of the seventeen formulated matrix tablets tested, only one formulation labelled HA-2 that contained 15% HPMC K4M demonstrated release profile we had aimed for. Further, swelling studies and scanning electron microscopic analysis confirmed the drug release mechanism of HA-2. The optimized formulation HA-2 was found to be stable at accelerated storage conditions for 3 months with respect to drug content and physical appearance. Mathematical analysis of the release kinetics of HA-2 indicated a coupling of diffusion and erosion mechanisms. In-vitro release studies and pharmacokinetic in vivo studies of HA-2 in rabbits confirmed the sustained drug release profile we had aimed for.

Keywords: Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, Matrix tablets, Nateglinide, Sustained release

Authors: Muchiri Henry , Ateya Ismail , Wanyembi Gregory
Published: December 2018

There has been an increase in crimes involving illegal firearms in the last couple of years. Previous studies have found that most illegal firearms are carried in a concealed manner. The detection therefore of persons carrying concealed firearms is critical in maintaining security especially in public places. Literature indicates that disruption in gait is a major indicator used by security personnel to detect persons carrying concealed firearms especially those tucked on the hip. However, the specific gait parameters that are indicative have not yet been quantitatively determined. The purpose of this study therefore is to analyze the gait of persons carrying a concealed firearm tucked on the right hip and to quantitatively determine the gait characteristics associated with carrying the firearm. A simulation of persons walking while carrying a concealed firearm and when unarmed was recorded using Kinect V2 depth camera. The depth camera provided 3D spatial skeletal joint position features of tracked joints for the armed and unarmed scenario. Paired t-tests were conducted to compare these features. Further, the results of the t-tests were related to the anatomical planes of Motion. Results showed that persons carrying a firearm demonstrated disrupted gait characterized by right arm abduction, left arm adduction, right leg adduction and extension. These findings extend existing gait indicators which can be employed by security personnel to identify persons carrying concealed firearms.

Contamination of drinking water sources by Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products (PPCPs) has raised concerns due to associated negative effects on the ecosystem, which include reproductive and hormonal malfunctions in some living organisms. In addition, occurrence of antibiotics in aquatic environment has been associated with development of antimicrobial resistance. However, the conventional water and wastewater treatment technologies are not effective at removing such organic micro-pollutants from the source waters, hence most of such contaminants find their way through the systems with minimal restrain. Hence accelerated effort to find technologies to enhance removal of recalcitrant organic micro-pollutants from the water and wastewater. The objective of this study was to investigate the removal of Trimethoprim (TMP) from natural water using Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) and Granular Activated Carbon (GAC). Adsorption experiments were conducted following batch process using natural water and distilled water. We also investigated the effect of pH changes on adsorption of TMP from the water. We obtained better performance for PAC in the removal of TMP compared to GAC. The removal efficiency decreased as a function of TMP concentrations in the aqueous solution. The optimal pH for adsorption was found to be 7, whereas pH values below or above 7 exhibited decreased adsorption of the antibiotic. There was no significant difference in the adsorption of TMP in both natural water and distilled water, which was attributed to limited organic matter in the natural water that was used.

A Dilemma between Firm Survivability and Business Ethic in Indonesia
Authors: Kuncoro Ari
Published: December 2018

in the 1998 economic crisis, the public perception on corruption in Indonesia was changed almost overnight in 1998. After almost 30 years of recognizing corruption as economically benign or even beneficial to the economic development, the public opinion was now shifting toward a concern that corruption hampered economic development (MacIntyre [2001]). What has been happening with small corruption at the firm level is however relatively unknown. For a private firm the primary concern of stakeholders from management, employees and shareholders is sustainability. Business environment however is not always friendly. Uncertainty could come from changes in government regulations. Facing the possibility of business stoppage, business ethics and illegality may have little meaning, many firms would have no choice but to pay grease money to speed up the process provided that the amount is â€œsmall.â€
