An Overview of the Job Market for Repatriated International Migrant Workers in Vietnam
Authors: Anh Dao Tuan , Huu Nguyen Duc
Published: January 2025

An employee is someone who directly participates in the labor process, whether by performing manual labor or mental labor. They are paid according to their own capacity through actual labor and employment conduct. Workers returning to their hometowns after working in nations other than Vietnam's territory. For Vietnamese workers who return home after the process of international migration, they face a lot of difficulties in finding jobs in their homeland, although the state and government have supported workers with many policies and welfare support packages, but it is really difficult for workers to integrate into the community due to many different factors. Returning migrants may experience a variety of needs, requiring programs that address those seeking assistance with unemployment, lack of savings, business development, job search, or psychosocial trauma issues or difficulty reintegrating into their communities. Integrated and targeted programs can support migrant workers to return to their local communities and optimize their contribution to the community and the labor market..

Published: January 2025

This study explores the legal and human rights challenges faced by non-ASN teachers in Indonesia, emphasizing the fundamental right to education and the professional rights of teachers as a cornerstone of equitable development. The research highlights the urgency of addressing systemic inequities in the compensation, benefits, and job security of non-ASN teachers compared to their ASN counterparts. Employing a normative legal approach supported by empirical data, the study examines legislative frameworks and their practical applications in East Luwu Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The findings reveal significant gaps in policy and practice, which undermine not only the professional dignity of non-ASN teachers but also their basic human rights, including the right to fair compensation and protection from discrimination. These disparities contravene national and international human rights standards and hinder the fulfillment of Indonesia's constitutional mandate to promote education for all. The study concludes with actionable recommendations for legal and policy reforms to ensure fair treatment, professional recognition, and human rights protection for all teachers, thereby strengthening Indonesia’s education system and upholding human dignity. The government’s responsibility to uphold teachers' rights is essential for fulfilling its broader commitment to human rights and education as a constitutional right.

Authors: Manalo Hernani D. , Manalo Ma. Riza T. , Bibangco EI Jireh P.
Published: January 2025

Innovative Work Behavior (IWB) is crucial for organizations aiming to thrive in dynamic markets and achieve sustainability. Despite its importance, there remains a fragmented understanding of the factors that foster IWB. This study explores the influence of Human Resource (HR) practices—Training and Development (TD), Rewards and Recognition (RR), Diversity Management (DM), and Work-Life Balance (WB)—on various dimensions of IWB such as Idea Exploration (IE), Idea Generation (IG), Idea Championing (IC), and Idea Implementation (II). Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the data from 111 participants across 9 industries in the UAE. The results reveal that TD positively impacts IE but negatively affects IG, suggesting that while training encourages exploration, it inhibits idea generation. DM consistently positively influences all IWB dimensions, highlighting the importance of diversity in fostering innovation. Conversely, RR negatively impacts IG, IC, and II, indicating that excessive focus on rewards can stifle creativity. WB has a mixed impact; it negatively affects IE but enhances IG, IC, showing that a balanced work-life environment supports innovative behaviors. These findings provide valuable insights for organizations aiming to enhance innovation capabilities through targeted HR practices. It thus adds value to the latent literature of IWB.

Published: January 2025

Subsidy removal and corruption significantly impact the Nigerian economy. This study investigates the impact of subsidy removal and corruption on the Nigerian economy from 2012 to 2023. The main objective is to analyse the economic consequences of subsidy removal policies and the types and forms of corruption associated with them. The study adopted the Public Choice Theory as the theoretical framework for understanding the decision-making processes and behaviour of stakeholders involved in subsidy removal and corruption. Methodologically, the study employs a qualitative approach, using secondary data, analysed through content and historical analysis. Findings indicate that while subsidy removal policies aim for fiscal sustainability, they often lead to inflationary pressures, social unrest, and public dissatisfaction. Moreover, corruption exacerbates these challenges, undermining governance, transparency, and accountability. Based on the findings, the study recommends strengthening anti-corruption measures, enhancing governance and institutional capacity, implementing targeted social safety nets, fostering public-private partnerships, and enhancing international cooperation to address the challenges posed by subsidy removal and corruption. These recommendations aim to promote transparency, accountability, and inclusive economic development in Nigeria. Overall, this study contributes empirical evidence, theoretical insights, and policy recommendations for understanding and addressing the complex interactions between subsidy policies, corruption dynamics, and socio-economic development in Nigeria.
Regional Power Dynamics and Security Approaches: A Comparative Study of SADC and ECOWAS
Authors: Akindoyin Dare Isaac , Obafemi Akintomiwa Olaniyi
Published: January 2025

This study examines regional power dynamics and security approaches within two prominent African regional organisations: ECOWAS– Economic Community of West African States and the SADC– Southern African Development Community. Since Africa remains insecure due to internal conflicts, and terrorism, regional organisations have a vital role in stability. ECOWAS and SADC are particularly marked by their specific security mechanisms; however, they are located in different political, social and economic environments and thus perform differently in terms of management and resolution of conflict. Using the theoretical framework of power theory and the adoption of case study research design and content analysis, the research critically explores regional power dynamics and security approaches within SADC and ECOWAS. The findings reveal that while ECOWAS’s interventionist policies enable swift action, they sometimes face issues of sustainability and regional buy-in. In contrast, SADC’s consensus-driven approach promotes stability but can lead to prolonged conflict resolution processes. This study contributes to the broader discourse on regional security in Africa, highlighting the need for adaptable strategies that address both immediate threats and long-term stability in diverse geopolitical environments. The study concludes that while both SADC and ECOWAS employ different strategies in Western and Southern Africa, yet the approaches are similar in many ways. Consequently, the two organisations though having the common strategic object of creating stability at regional level have significantly different operating models defined by their respective historical, political and socio-economic circumstances. These differences define their security actions, the coordination of the states which are members of the union, and their performance in the handling of conflicts.

Due to the fragile nature of peace in polarised post-conflict communities, conducting qualitative phenomenological research on women in such communities is not easy for researchers. Consequently, conducting fieldwork in such a location requires adequate and thorough planning before proceeding to the field. In this article, the authors shared their common experiences of conducting research on women in polarised post-conflict communities. This article emphasised on the need for a researcher to establish multiple initial contacts with persons in the research locations, Civil Society Organisations (CSOs), and/or Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) that have done some work or are currently working in the locations. The contacts can provide useful insights about the nature of the research locations, the potential participants, and the sensitivities. The article shows that when conducting interviews and Focused Group Discussions (FGDs), the researcher should ensure the safety of both the researcher and the participants by choosing suitable times and safe locations. The article emphasised the need to ensure that ethical considerations should guide the research process. The researcher, in conducting the fieldwork, must ensure that continuous informed consent is obtained from the participants in the research process. This will ensure that the researcher “does no harm” to the participants. Trust building through confidentiality and anonymity should be guaranteed to the participants to build rapport to ensure their full participation.

O Programa Educacional de Resistência às Drogas e à Violência (PROERD) é uma iniciativa do 26º Batalhão de Polícia Militar (BPM) da Polícia Militar do Pará (PMPA). Esta pesquisa teve o objetivo levantar a percepção dos professores em relação a influência do PROERD no comportamento dos alunos. Trata-se de uma pesquisa aplicada de cunho descritivo, exploratória, de natureza qualitativa, desenvolvida por meio de uma pesquisa de campo, mediante aplicação de um questionário, e de pesquisa documental. A pesquisa foi realizada em duas escolas localizadas na Ilha do Outeiro/Pa, onde, já vem sendo realizado o curso do PROERD desde o ano de 1992. Ao fim da análise descritiva dos dados, foi possível observar que do universo de trinta (30) professores somente vinte e seis (26) professores da Escola Estadual de Ensino Fundamental e Médio (EEEFM) Brasília e 9 professores do Centro Educacional Vitória responderam ao questionário. Com a pesquisa foi possível concluir que a presença do PROERD nas escolas e a subsequente mudança de comportamento dos alunos são percebidas como positivas por muitos docentes. A valorização do respeito, a empatia e a responsabilidade têm impactos duradouros na dinâmica da sala de aula. Outra conclusão que se tira é o fato de que a percepção dos professores sobre o comportamento dos alunos após participarem do PROERD é, em muitos aspectos, positiva, mas também carrega certas ressalvas.

The PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottle rocket is an experimental and recreational activity which addresses various chemical concepts when using liquid propellant (vinegar and sodium bicarbonate), physical and mathematical concepts, as well as engineering applications in order to obtain stable and resistant rockets. In this research, it was observed that the use of polyester matrix composite materials reinforced with lignocellulosic fibers provided mechanical strength and durability to the rockets manufactured, as well as enabling several oblique launches. The rockets with açai fibers had a range of 191 meters, those with sisal fibers had a range of 188 meters, the rockets using corn husk fibers and those using a combination of jute fabric fibers and coconut fibers both reached 180 meters. Finally, the rockets with jute fabric fibers and those with coconut fibers both reached 163 meters. In this way, the combination of composite materials in the constructive parts of the rockets brings an innovative proposal to this type of activity, since the use of Amazonian lignocellulosic fibers, as reinforcement, rescues the characteristic of sustainable development.

Avaliar riqueza, diversidade, dominância e equidade em agroecossistemas revela sustentabilidade e equilíbrio ecológico em sucessões de cultivos. Este estudo foi realizado em Augusto Pestana, na Universidade Regional do Noroeste do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul (UNIJUÍ), com o objetivo de avaliar a influência dos diferentes tipos de uso e manejo do solo sobre a entomofana em área de sucessão de cultivos. O experimento foi conduzido em uma área com sorgo como cultura antecedente, dividida em quatro parcelas experimentais, com quatro armadilhas por parcela, totalizando 20 armadilhas por período de coleta. Os sistemas de preparo do solo consistiram em plantio direto com aveia branca (primeira parcela), aveia preta (segunda parcela), trigo (terceira parcela) e canola (quarta parcela). A diversidade foi analisada pelos índices de Shannon, Margalef, Menhinick e Simpson, a dominância pelo índice de Simpson, a equidade pelo índice de Pielou e a riqueza pelo índice de Jackknife de primeira ordem. Os organismos coletados foram quantificados, identificados e classificados por ordem, família e espécie. Os resultados mostraram que a macrofauna foi significativamente influenciada pelos sistemas de manejo, com maior diversidade observada no habitat natural (mata). Nas culturas de trigo e canola, não houve variações abruptas entre os períodos de coleta. As plantas de cobertura desempenharam papel fundamental no aumento da diversidade e abundância da fauna edáfica. Além disso, as épocas de coleta influenciaram a composição da fauna devido à variação na oferta de alimento. Os organismos mais frequentes foram da ordem Diptera, independentemente do sistema de manejo ou época de coleta. Este estudo destaca a importância dos sistemas de manejo e das plantas de cobertura na manutenção da diversidade da macrofauna.

Published: January 2025

Nos tempos atuais vemos que, principalmente após o advento da pandemia, a Educação vem enfrentando vários desafios. Este estudo pretende abordar especialmente o processo de aprendizagem de leitura e escrita pois é importante que haja estímulos para a linguagem escrita e que a leitura aconteça já nos primeiros anos escolares das crianças. Dentro desta proposta acima cabe ressaltar a estratégia de recomposição de aprendizagens, habilidades leitoras e de escrita que demandam várias ações para serem consolidadas. No retorno ao ensino presencial, este trabalho é importante devido á demanda que vem sendo recebida nas escolas, acompanhada da diversidade de estágios de dificuldades de aprendizagem numa mesma etapa/ ano de escolaridade pois a heterogeneidade das turmas, tende a ser maior nesse momento, uma vez que cada estudante viveu de forma muito singular o ensino remoto. Escolas que puderam contar com horários específicos no contraturno para atividades de recomposição e com docentes auxiliares no período regular, terão mais oportunidades de vencer estes desafios. A metodologia utilizada para esta produção foi baseada em pesquisa bibliográfica através de estudos de artigos recentes referentes ao tema.

Published: January 2025

Este artigo tem por objetivo conciliar dentro da sala de aula na aula de Língua Portuguesa a linguagem regional e a norma-padrão. Para direcionamento desse estudo estruturou-se em pesquisa bibliográficas fundamentada nos estudos de autores como Bortoni-Ricardo (2004) Bagno (2012), Coelho et al. (2018), Faraco (2008) e Soares (2017) entre outros, que em seus estudos descrevem e contextualizam a linguagem regional e norma-padrão e as vias para valoração da língua de uso habitual frente à aprendizagem da norma-padrão. Descrevendo como o contrário pode acontecer, fortalecendo assim o preconceito que ainda existe quanto à linguagem e suas peculiaridades. Logo, na análise, verifica-se que é riqueza o respeito à origem e cultura que outro descende e que conhecer a norma-padrão dotado de respeito ao outro e a sua origem é fator positivo para um aprendizado efetivo em visão da desconstrução de preconceitos à linguagem regional. Ao fim, deseja-se que esse trabalho, diante de toda bibliografia que se estruturou, seja orientativo para o professor trabalhar com seus alunos a concreta sonância da língua norma-padrão e a linguagem regional numa perspectiva de aprendizado e respeito.

Authors: RUMAISA . , NAWAZ R , FATIMA S , REHMAN A , USMAN A
Published: January 2025

Malaria remains a significant health burden, especially in pediatric populations, with recurrence posing a substantial challenge. Plasmodium vivax is the predominant species responsible for recurrent malaria episodes. Understanding recurrence rates and associated factors is crucial for designing effective interventions to minimize the disease burden in endemic regions. Objective: To determine the recurrence rate of malaria and associated factors in children aged 2-12 years at the Pediatric Department of Sindh Government Lyari General Hospital, Karachi. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted over six months. A sample size of 95 was calculated using Open Epi, based on a 9.78% recurrence rate with a 95% confidence interval and a 7% margin of error. Non-probability consecutive sampling was used. Children aged 2-12 years diagnosed with malaria were included, and those with life-threatening comorbidities were excluded. Demographic data, presenting complaints, and clinical findings were recorded. Malaria diagnosis and Plasmodium species identification were confirmed through blood film microscopy, and treatment adherence was observed. Follow-up for recurrence was conducted over three months, with data analysis performed using SPSS Version 25. Results: The mean age of participants was 6.8 ± 2.5 years, with 52% male and 48% female. Common symptoms included fever (90%), chills (75%), and sweating (68%). Plasmodium vivax was identified in 70% of cases, P. falciparum in 25%, and mixed infections in 5%. The total recurrence rate was 10%, primarily due to P. vivax (60%), with recurrences observed across the three follow-up months. Higher recurrence rates were noted in younger children (2-5 years) and those with non-adherence to the treatment protocol (11%). Conclusion: It is concluded that malaria recurrence in children, particularly in those aged 2-5 years, is a notable issue, with Plasmodium vivax being the predominant species in recurrent cases. High adherence to treatment protocols may help reduce recurrence, while targeted follow-up in high-risk groups could improve outcomes.

Cesarean sections are among the most common surgical procedures globally, and optimal skin closure methods are critical for minimizing postoperative complications. This study evaluates the incidence of surgical site infections (SSIs) and wound disruptions and compares postoperative outcomes between skin closure with metallic staples and absorbable subcuticular sutures in cesarean deliveries Objective: To compare surgical site infections and wound disruptions in skin closure with staples vs absorbable subcuticular sutures in patients undergoing cesarean sections. Methodology: A prospective study was conducted in the Surgery and Gynecology Department of Jinnah Hospital, Lahore from August 2023 to August 2024. A total of 100 pregnant women with a gestation age of 24 weeks or more undergoing c-sections were selected for the study. Patients were divided into Group A (n=50) with women undergoing skin closure with metallic staples and Group B (n=50) with women undergoing skin closure with 4-0 Monocryl sutures. All patients were examined at discharge and 4-6 weeks postpartum. The primary endpoint was postpartum surgical site infection or wound disruption. The second endpoints were postoperative and postpartum pain score, surgery duration, cosmesis score and patient satisfaction. Results: At discharge, the primary outcome was 8% in group A and 1% in group B (RR: 13.2 (2.2-100), p<0.001). At follow-up, the primary outcome was 15% in group A and 5.8% in group B (2.7 (1.5-4.8), p=0.010). The average duration of surgery was longer in group B (60 vs 50 minutes). Both groups did not differ significantly in pain scores, satisfaction scores, and cosmesis scores. Conclusion: High incidence of surgical site infections and wound disruption were noted in skin closure with staples as compared to sutures in women undergoing cesarean delivery. However, both methods were similar in pain scores, cosmesis scores, and patient satisfaction.
Deciphering the Double-Edged Action of STING pathway in Cancer
Authors:   Asutosh College, Datta Neelabh
Published: January 2025

Cancer cells have unstable chromosomes and damaged DNA, which can activate the cellular alarm system cGAS-STING. This mechanism detects DNA in the incorrect location (the cytosol) and produces type I interferons, which can recruit immune cells to combat cancer. However, certain tumours can bypass or use this mechanism for their own benefit. This short article examines how cGAS-STING influences the different cells of the tumour microenvironment (TME), and how it can have both anti-tumour and pro-tumour effects. It also demonstrates how additional STING signals can cause inflammation and contribute to cancer growth. To employ cGAS-STING against cancer, it is critical to understand its complexities in various cell environments.

Purpose:

The surgical approach for midfoot injuries classically requires dual dorsal incision and identification of the neurovascular structures that are susceptible to injury during the surgery. The aim of this study was to map the topographic anatomy of the dorsum of the foot along with tarsal joints for the dorsal approach of midfoot surgery that would facilitate the surgery and minimize the risk of neurovascular injuries for surgeons who specially focus on foot and ankle injuries.

Methods:

The dorsum of the foot was evaluated in 12 feet injected with latex containing a red colorant to visualize the arterial vessels. The navicular line, originating from the navicular tuberosity (NT) and passing over the dorsum of the foot, was used as a reference line. Dorsal foot neurovascular structures including cutaneous branches and muscles were mapped with respect to the tarsal joints and navicular line.

Results:

The deep peroneal nerve and dorsalis pedis artery were coursing between the base of the first and second metatarsal bones over which the tendon of the extensor hallucis brevis muscle was passing. The tendon of extensor hallucis brevis was crossing over the deep peroneal nerve and dorsalis pedis artery 55.2 mm superior and 45.0 mm lateral, respectively, from the NT.

Conclusion:

This cadaver study supplies a detailed topographic map of the dorsum of the foot using the tarsal joints and NT as landmarks for protecting the neurovascular structures to facilitate midfoot surgeries for sports medicine surgeons who specially focus on foot and ankle injuries.

Residu antibiotik dalam produk makanan dapat menimbulkan masalah kesehatan masyarakat yang signifikan. Praktek penggunaan antibiotik pada budidaya ternak berpotensi menimbulkan residu antibiotik pada pangan berbahan dasar dari hewan. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui hasil pengujian residu kloramfenikol pada produk pangan olahan madu, udang, dan ikan di wilayah Sulawesi dan Maluku. Selain itu, melalui penelitian ini dapat diketahui sebaran hasil uji berdasarkan jenis izin edar. Pada akhirnya diharapkan menghasilkan suatu rekomendasi kepada stakeholder terkait untuk meminimalisir penggunaan kloramfenikol yang tidak sesuai ketentuan. Sampel penelitian berasal dari produk pangan olahan madu, udang, dan ikan yang terdistribusi di wilayah Sulawesi Tengah, Ambon, Sofifi, Mamuju, Morotai, dan Tanimbar tahun 2021-2022. Pengujian dilakukan di laboratorium Balai POM Palu sesuai metode analisis PPPOMN 071/PA/17 tentang Penetapan Kadar Residu Kloramfenikol dalam Udang secara ELISA dan MA PPPOMN 11/PA/09 tentang Penetapan Kadar Residu Kloramfenikol dalam Madu secara ELISA. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian ditemukan produk pangan olahan madu, udang, dan ikan yang mengandung residu kloramfenikol. Dari total 92 sampel yang diuji, terdapat 15 produk madu, 4 produk pangan olahan udang, dan 7 produk pangan olahan ikan yang tidak memenuhi syarat. Kadar residu kloramfenikol berkisar dari 0,01-0,09 ppb. Jumlah sampel TMS pada produk pangan madu dan ikan dengan izin edar PIRT lebih besar persentasenya jika dibandingkan dengan produk dengan izin edar MD/ML. Presentase TMS produk madu dan pangan olahan ikan dengan izin edar PIRT secara berturut -turut 53% dan 21 %. Riset lebih lanjut mengenai sumber residu kloramfenikol dan asal wilayah penghasil madu, udang, dan ikan perlu dilakukan oleh lembaga atau akademisi terkait. Selain itu, perlu dilakukan sosialisasi dan edukasi kepada masyarakat mengenai penggunaan antibiotik kloramfenikol sesuai ketentuan baik untuk pengobatan penyakit ataupun praktik peternakan untuk meminimalisir adanya residu kloramfenikol pada produk pangan olahan.

Kontaminasi Salmonella spp. pada pakan hewan merupakan tantangan bagi industri pakan komersial dan juga laboratorium hewan uji. Salmonella dapat menyebabkan penyakit salmonellosis pada hewan uji dengan tingkat mortalitas yang tinggi, sehingga menyebabkan kerugian ekonomi yang signifikan. Penularan penyakit ini kepada manusia dapat terjadi melalui kontak langsung dengan pakan yang terkontaminasi atau melalui hewan terinfeksi yang menularkan Salmonella pada pangan manusia dan sumber air. Pakan hewan merupakan sumber utama penularan Salmonella pada hewan. Karena menyebabkan kerugian yang besar akibat angka mortalitas yang tinggi, metode deteksi Salmonella spp. yang cepat dan akurat diperlukan untuk pemantauan kualitas pakan hewan. Metode deteksi Salmonella yang akurat dan cepat diperlukan dalam pemantauan kualitas pakan hewan. Metode standar untuk deteksi Salmonella pada pakan mengacu pada ISO 6579 yaitu menggunakan metode kultur. Metode kultur membutuhkan waktu pengujian sekitar 5-7 hari, sehingga diperlukan metode alternatif yang memberikan hasil valid dalam waktu lebih singkat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memverifikasi metode alternatif untuk deteksi Salmonella pada pakan menggunakan metode Loop Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) dan Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (real-time PCR). Deteksi Salmonella telah dilakukan pada pakan mencit dan kelinci berbentuk pelet yang dicemari dengan Salmonella Typhimurium ATCC 14028 pada tiga tingkat konsentrasi, yaitu ±1, ±3, dan ±9 cfu per porsi uji (25 gram sampel). Nilai rentang e-LOD antara metode LAMP dan Real-time PCR dibandingkan dengan metode kultur, lalu dianalisis secara deskriptif kualitatif. Metode deteksi Salmonella menggunakan LAMP dan Real-time PCR menunjukan nilai e-LOD50 sebesar 0,62 cfu/porsi uji pada pakan mencit dan e-LOD50 sebesar 0,37 cfu/porsi uji pada pakan kelinci. Nilai e-LOD ini sama dengan e-LOD metode kultur. Hasil penelitian ini dapat dimanfaatkan oleh laboratorium terkait dalam pemantauan kualitas pakan hewan.

This study explores the profile, motivation, self-efficacy, and competence of teachers in inclusive classrooms, with a focus on how these factors vary across age, sex, educational attainment, length of service, and position. Using descriptive statistics, the study analyzed levels of motivation, self-efficacy, and competence among teachers. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) revealed significant variations influenced by professional positions rather than demographic factors like age, sex, or length of service. Correlation analysis showed strong positive relationships between motivation, self-efficacy, and competence, underscoring the interrelated nature of these factors in fostering effective inclusive teaching practices. The findings emphasize the need for tailored professional development and support strategies, particularly for teachers in lower positions, to enhance their confidence and effectiveness in inclusive settings. Additionally, the study highlights the role of school culture and leadership in supporting teachers’ professional growth and commitment to inclusive education.
