Authors: Lan Qihong
Published: September 2024

In this paper, Uniqlo, a well-known Japanese clothing brand, is selected as the object of case study to explore the core advantages and existing problems of the supply chain and put forward optimization suggestions. We find that SPA, ECR and suppliers complement each other in good cooperation. Based on giving full play to their advantages, a resultant force is formed and continuously radiates, which enables Uniqlo to avoid the “bullwhip effect”, improve the operation efficiency of the enterprise, and maximize profits. Among them, SPA plays an absolute advantage. However, good supply chain capability has enabled Uniqlo to win the market among similar clothing brands, but there are also limitations. One is to bear the exogenous and endogenous risks of supply chain management alone. The other is the high investment cost of direct stores, such as the high Managing overheads, which leads to the high operating cost and slow expansion. Therefore, this paper puts forward some suggestions on optimizing supplier selection and transforming and upgrading marketing mode.

Analysis of the Network Discourse Patterns of Higher Vocational College Students
Authors: Tang Jingsong
Published: September 2024

As the most open and active social group in cyberspace, higher vocational college students have adopted network discourse as an important form of interpersonal communication and self-expression. Cyberspace is characterized by its virtuality, anonymity, and entertainment value, where different discourse subjects continuously aggregate and interact in digital forms. This, to a certain extent, has reshaped the discourse expression of higher vocational college students, leading to a more vulgarized pattern of online interaction and language usage among young students, which is characterized by fragmentation, compartmentalization, and metaphorization. Network discourse innovation reflects the intrinsic need of vocational students to proactively innovate, adapt to network communication modes, and integrate into the public discourse system. The potential trends of compartmentalization, fragmentation, and metaphorization in network discourse pose challenges to the guiding power and dissemination of mainstream discourse, causing a loss of mainstream discourse meaning and authority dissolution. Therefore, it is imperative to strengthen the study of the intrinsic rules of network discourse, change mainstream discourse strategies, enhance cyberspace supervision, and adopt multiple measures to break down discourse barriers, creating a clean and upright cyberspace for young students.

Background: Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a mosquito-borne viral infection caused by the dengue virus (DENV). The situation of the DHF prevalence rate was still high in the community. One reason for this high rate involves community members, who had less participated in the prevention and control measures of DHF.
Objectives: This descriptive study aimed to study factors associated with preventing and controlling DHF among village health volunteer, Pattani Province.
Methods: Population consisted of 6,841 village health volunteers registered in Pattani Province, Thailand, in fiscal year 2020, and the sample size was calculated using Daniel formula for 215 cases, and systematic random sampling was carried out for collecting data. Data were collected by questionnaires composed of 3 parts, including characteristics, health literacy factors, and preventing and controlling DHF. In addition to check questionnaire standardization, validity was checked by three experts and try out testing reliability by Cronbach’s coefficient alpha about 0.87. Data were analysed using statistical as Pearson product moment correlation coefficient and Stepwise Multiple Regression Analysis.
Results: The analysis found that health literacy factors were associated with preventing and controlling DHF among village health volunteer, Pattani Province such as access skill (r=0.310, p-value<0.001) communication skill (r=0.201, p-value=0.003) media literacy skill (r=0.386, p-value<0.001) decision skill (r=0.349, p-value<0.001) self-management skill (r=0.480, p-value<0.001), respectively. Conversely, cognitive skill had no association (r=0.117, p-value=0.086). 
Conclusion: The finding showed that health literacy of village health volunteer was associated with the preventing and controlling DHF. Therefore, health workers should encourage the village health volunteers to participate in sustainable prevention and control of DHF.

« Les films d’Ozu sont comparables à une eau limpide et profonde, parfaitement tranquille » (Maurice Pinguet). La simplicité des images d’Ozu est toute apparente. C’est dans la transparence de ces lignes que se joue la véritable profondeur de ses films : tout se passe comme si nous avions affaire au monde le plus naturel, le plus commun, et pourtant d’emblée nous notons un écart – les personnages se meuvent de manière inorganique, leur regard nous manque toujours, ils semblent flotter, entre la présence et l’absence. Cette pan.able est une invitation à la contemplation à la frontière des arts visuels et de la psychologie de la perception. Pour penser cet entre-deux, entre la 2D de l’image et la 3D de la réalité, la 2.5D s’entend à la fois comme une nouvelle conception de la construction perspective et comme un rapport spécifique au monde. Au sens perspectif, l’image ozuienne ne semble pas construite linéairement selon les règles du point de fuite qui unifient un espace homogène et structuré. Elle est plutôt construite selon un principe de superposition de couches, à la manière des dessins animés. La pan.able montre le passage d’une image comme coupe du réel à une image comme recomposition du réel, d’une conception de l’espace unifié à une conception de l’espace stratifié. Métaphoriquement, cet entre-deux de la 2.5D révèle que derrière la pureté et la sérénité des images d’Ozu se joue une forme de drame : le personnage hante le monde plus qu’il ne l’habite. Il est dans la doublure. Il n’est plus un personnage singulier dans une fiction, mais un prototype, une Idée : Il était un père, pour citer un autre film d’Ozu. Le procédé de la pan.able permet de rendre sensible cette déconnexion de l’espace réel et sa substitution par une image artificielle et stratifiée. Cela donne à la fois l’impression d’être devant un flip book humoristique et face à un fantôme, échappé de son corps, perdu dans sa propre rêverie. Entre une tendresse amusée et une réflexivité sensible, c’est précisément là que se déroulent les films d’Ozu, entre la surface et la profondeur, entre la présence et l’absence, entre le singulier et le type – dans cet entre-deux de la 2.5D.
Development and utilization of kerson (Muntingia calabura) plant for fabric production

Fiber is one of the essential elements in fabric and textile structure. Natural fibers were given a lot of respect over synthetic ones in terms of sustainability. The demand for natural fibers is constantly increasing due to their being environmentally friendly, hygienic, comfortable character, thermal insulation, breathability, and softness. This study focused on the development and utilization of the Kerson (Muntingia calabura) plant fiber for fabric production. It aimed to identify the processes involved in fiber extraction, assess the physical properties of the fabric, and evaluate its acceptability among tailors, dressmakers, teachers, and students. The fibers were processed using the Retting Method and tested for strength and durability at the DOST-PTRI. Results showed that while the fiber had moderate strength, the addition of cotton improved its tensile properties. Evaluation by respondents indicated high acceptability in terms of usefulness, durability, and appearance, with usefulness receiving the highest scores. One-way ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc tests revealed significant differences between the assessments of tailors and teachers, suggesting that teachers were more critical in evaluating the fabric. Overall, the study concluded that Kerson plant fiber has the potential for sustainable fabric production, though further improvements in texture and strength are recommended.
