[STBI-190116] A behavior and economic framework to attack marine plastic pollution
2019-01-14 00:00 (Asia/Krasnoyarsk)
Dear professors, lecturers, researchers, colleagues, and students,
You are cordially invited to the next UEH School of Economics STBI (Small Talks Big Ideas) seminar.

The details of the next STBI seminar are as follows:
Topic: A Behavior and Economic Framework to Attack Marine Plastic Pollution
Presenter: Dr. Ho Quoc Thong (Environment for Development – EfD Vietnam)
Time: 11:00 – Wednesday, January 16, 2019
Venue: Room H.001, Campus H, UEH School of Economics, 1A Hoang Dieu, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City
Language: Vietnamese
Abstract:
Marine plastic debris pollution is both a global and a local problem with potentially severe consequences for wildlife, economic activity, and human health. The presentation will provide an overview of a framework for designing behavioral and economic tools to reduce marine debris. We also analyze a variety of market-based instruments and behavioral tools attacking the marine plastic pollution. We then use an impact pathway framework to make country-specific recommendations that reflect the reality of solid waste management in each of the countries selected as examples. This framework is also used to propose some further research directions toward the marine plastic debris in Vietnam. These research ideas will also be discussed.
About the presenter:
Dr. Ho Quoc Thong is currently working as a postdoctoral researcher at the Environment for Development – EfD Vietnam. He was awarded a PhD degree from School of Economics & Finance, Queensland University of Technology, Australia in 2018 and received a master degree from the University of Hawaii at Manoa, USA in 2011. His research focuses on efficiency and productivity analysis, environmental performance and the use of behavioral economic approaches in analyzing environmental issues. His studies have been published in Journal of Economic Analysis and Policy, Journal of Cleaner Production and Economic Record.

Small Talks Big Ideas is a series of academic activities welcoming researchers, students and anyone who are interested in economics and related disciplinary to share an innovative idea or research proposal, to discuss an academic question or a policy-relevant issue, a working paper with preliminary results or a published paper. In 2019, the STBI seminar is regularly held on Wednesday, from 11:00 to 12:00 at H.001, UEH School of Economics (1A Hoang Dieu, Phu Nhuan District, HCMC)

[STBI-180914] The Self-Determination Theory
2018-09-11 00:00
Dear professors, colleagues and students,
We would like to invite you to participate in the 2018 STBI Brown Bag Series at the UEH School of Economics.

We welcome Dr. Thùy Vy Nguyễn to present her ideas during the Brown Bag Series Special Session.

Topic: The Self-Determination Theory
Time: 11:30 – Friday, 14th September, 2018
Venue: Room H.001, Campus H, UEH School of Economics, 1A Hoang Dieu street, ward 10, Phu Nhuan district, HCMC
The language of presentation: Vietnamese

Abstract
Dr. Thuỳ Vy Nguyễn will talk about the theoretical framework that has shaped most of her research questions, the Self-Determination Theory (SDT). SDT is a theory about human motivation. At the core, the theory explains why we do what we do and what are the ingredients for healthy motivation and psychological wellness. Initially developed by Drs. Edward L. Deci and Richard M. Ryan, SDT has been elaborated and refined by a network of scholars around the world. Specifically in this talk, Dr. Nguyễn will discuss how SDT has been used as the framework to understand how teachers can help their students to engage in deep, meaningful learning, what make organizations succeed at supporting their employees’ well-being and reduce physical illness, and why some people achieve their goals and live a healthy, fulfilling life.
Speaker
Dr. Thuỳ Vy Nguyễn received her Ph.D from the University of Rochester under the supervision of the two world-renowned motivation researchers, Drs. Edward Deci and Richard Ryan. Her current research focuses on the science of solitude and tries to understand how we can take advantage of daily doses of solitude to benefit our own psychological well-being. She is also an active advocate for the movement toward a more transparent and accessible science. Through her works, she hopes to inspire people to own the choice that we make to strive for best of who we are, to be present not only with ourselves but also with others, and last but not least, be authentic in our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and communication.

Dear professors, colleagues and students,
We would like to invite you to participate in the 2018 STBI Brown Bag Series at the UEH School of Economics.
We welcome Dr. Le Vu Quan to present his ideas during the Brown Bag session.
Topic: Potential Impacts of Climate Change on Global Production of Coffee: A Panel Data Analysis of Exporting Countries
Time: 11:30 – Tuesday, 31th July, 2018
Venue: Room H.001, Campus H, UEH School of Economics, 1A Hoang Dieu, Phu Nhuan District
The language of presentation: Vietnamese
Abstract
We develop a model to understand the future of global coffee production in the face of climate change. To get a holistic perspective, we examine the entire global coffee supply covering a period of over 20 years from 1992-2015. The novelty of this paper is the way we construct instrumental variables. Generally, it is difficult or practically impossible to find instrumental variables that are uncorrelated with the regressors. Our modelling approach allows us to construct such series that are guaranteed to be uncorrelated with any regressors we will use. This is possible because we were able to extrapolate structural shocks such as supply, demand and speculative shocks in the coffee market, and then use those shocks as instrumental variables. We find that there is a positive effect of increase in prices paid to farmers and the supply of coffee. In addition, by including structural coffee market shocks as instrumental variables in the fixed effects model, we find that climatic variables tend to underestimate the effects of supply shocks on the quantity of coffee grown. By using this model, we believe that we can deliver a more accurate understating of price elasticity and the potential impacts of climate change on global production of coffee.

[STBI-180720] Economic and non-economic returns to Communist Party membership in Viet Nam
2018-07-18 00:00
Dear professors, colleagues and students,
We would like to invite you to participate in the 2018 STBI Brown Bag Series at the UEH School of Economics.
We welcome Dr. Ngo Quang Thanh to present his ideas during the Brown Bag session.
Topic: Economic and non-economic returns to Communist Party membership in Viet Nam
Time: 11:30 – Friday, 20th July, 2018
Venue: Room H.001, Campus H, UEH School of Economics, 1A Hoang Dieu, Phu Nhuan District
The language of presentation: Vietnamese
Abstract
Single-party political systems exist in a number of countries, such as China and Viet Nam. In these countries, party membership is potentially an important source of economic and social status. This paper investigates these effects and the mechanisms behind them. In particular, we use household- and individual-level panel data to analyse the causes and consequences of Communist Party membership in rural areas of Viet Nam. Fixed effects models are employed to control for unobserved differences between party members and others.
Results suggest that party membership has a moderate positive effect on income, on the order of seven per cent, and a large positive effect on subjective well-being, even after controlling for income. Party membership is closely associated with working for the government but also appears to increase the propensity to use credit and to boost income from farm and non-farm enterprises. There are strong gender effects: men are several times more likely to be party members than women, and the effects of membership on income and subjective well-being are only present among men. Overall, results confirm that in spite of pro-market economic reforms, Communist Party membership continues to be of high value in rural Viet Nam.
Speaker: Ngo Quang Thanh
Ngo Quang Thanh is a Senior Research Fellow at the Southern Center for Agriculture Policy and Strategy, Institute of Policy and Strategy for Agriculture Rural Development. His expertise and research interests focus on development issues using quantitative analysis tools, including both contemporary econometric technique and the spatial one.

[STBI-180706] Green Space and Deaths Attributable to the Urban Heat Island Effect in Ho Chi Minh City
2018-07-03 00:00
Dear professors, colleagues and students,
We would like to invite you to participate in the 2018 STBI Brown Bag Series at the UEH School of Economics.
We welcome Dr. Tran Ngoc Dang to present his ideas during the Brown Bag session.
Topic: Green Space and Deaths Attributable to the Urban Heat Island Effect in Ho Chi Minh City
Time: 11:30 – Friday, 6th July, 2018
Venue: Room H.001, Campus H, UEH School of Economics, 1A Hoang Dieu, Phu Nhuan District
The language of presentation: Vietnamese
Abstract
Objectives. To quantify heat-related deaths in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, caused by the urban heat island (UHI) and explore factors that may alleviate the impact of UHIs.
Methods. We estimated district-specific meteorological conditions from 2010 to 2013 using the dynamic downscaling model and calculated the attributable fraction and number of mortalities resulting from the total, extreme, and mild heat in each district. The difference in attributable fraction of total heat between the central and outer districts was classified as the attributable fraction resulting from the UHI. The association among attributable fraction, attributable number with a green space, population density, and budget revenue of each district was then explored.
Results. The temperature–mortality relationship between the central and outer areas was almost identical. The attributable fraction resulting from the UHI was 0.42%, which was contributed by the difference in temperature distribution between the 2 areas. Every 1-square-kilometer increase in green space per 1000 people can prevent 7.4 deaths caused by heat.
Conclusions. Green space can alleviate the impacts of UHIs, although future studies conducting a heath economic evaluation of tree planting are warranted.

Abstract:
Previous research has established that the commonly applied the methods of property valuation can be broadly divided by two groups such as traditional and advanced methods(Xiao & Webster, 2017). These traditional methods in the field of property valuation include the sales comparison method, cost method, residual/development method, profits method, and investment method (capitalization/discounted cash flow – DCF method). Advanced methods focus on techniques, for instance, hedonic pricing model, spatial analysis methods, artificial neural networks (ANN), and case-based reasoning that mentioned in technology and machine/engineering. This topic will only reveal clearly hedonic property values models and applied valuation. From the many hedonic property valuation studies of the impacts of related determinants, this studies also suggests some topics that related to analyze the factors or attributes of housing affect of property value. Appraisal, household, developers and Policymakers could draw on this synthesis of site characteristics’ effects to property value.

[STBI-170810] Investigating Agricultural Intra-Industry Trade: A Comprehensive Case Study in Vietnamtural Intra-Industry Trade: A Comprehensive Case Study in Vietnam

Venue: H001, 1A Hoang Dieu Street, Ward 10, Phu Nhuan District
Abstract:
Intra-industry trade (IIT) and trade dynamics play rising roles in the international economic literature recently. This article investigates Vietnam’s agricultural IIT defined by GLI in the world market and the dynamics of GLI indicators in five ways: MIIT, OLS, Markov matrix, time series, and piecewise to understand economic changes from different angles. The paper finally tests the relationship between IIT and trade specialization. The results indicate that Vietnam has the inter-industry trade in 42 agricultural sectors while it has the IIT in only 19 sectors. The country’s agricultural IIT pattern is convergent and the degrees of the IIT are relatively mobile over time. Vietnam obtains the increasing IIT trends in 21 agricultural sectors while it has the decreasing IIT trends in 13 sectors. The event in 2008 results in 14 agricultural IIT breakpoints. The study, remarkably, confirms that IIT and trade specialization are inversely correlated and this empirical result is consistent with international trade theory.

[STBI-170525] Analysis of regional competition for FDI among VIetnam’s provinces during 2011-2014 using Spatial Durbin modeling (SDM)

Dear professors, lecturers, researchers, colleagues, and students,

Time: 11:00 – 25 May 2017
Venue: Room H.001, Campus H, UEH School of Economics, 1A Hoang Dieu, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City
Abstract:
Among a plethora of literature of determinants of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) are few which successfully addressed the concern about connectivity among neighboring jurisdictions or regions. In the context of Vietnam, empirical studies on FDI determinants tend to neglect that spatial interaction among neighboring provinces, which oftentimes leads to inefficient and biased estimations. This current study fills in that gap of knowledge about spatial interaction of FDI determinants of for all 63 provinces in Vietnam during the recovery period after the global financial meltdown from 2011 to 2014. The Spatial Durbin Model (SDM) confirms the effects of traditional determinants of FDI including market size, the presence of seaports, labor quality, labor cost and local government’s degree of openness. The model’s indirect effects also reveal spillover impacts of determinants of neighboring provinces, which sheds light on the mechanism that drives FDI among jurisdictions and regions. The findings support policymakers to think of economic development as a regional and inter-regional issue instead of provincial one.

Venue: Room H.001, Campus H, UEH School of Economics, 1A Hoang Dieu, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City
Abstract:
Chính sách bồi thường, hỗ trợ chuyển đổi nghề nghiệp, tái định cư cho các hộ gia đình(HGĐ) bị thu hồi đất (THĐ) ở vùng nông thôn thành phố Cần Thơ được áp dụng rất đa dạng. Có loại đất chỉ được đền bù tương tương giá thị trường,có loại đất được đền bù và hỗ trợ chuyển đổi nghề nghiệp gấp 4 lần. Mặc dù, phân tích các phỏng vấn sâu về hành vi của HGĐ trong việc làm tạo thu nhập và chi tiêu đã chỉ ra một số điểm khác biệt, kết quả đánh giá tác động của việc THĐ đến thu nhập và chi tiêu HGĐ sau 2 đến 4 năm sau THĐ bằng phương pháp DID cho thấy không có sự thay đổi trong thu nhập và chi tiêu của HGĐ dù được bồi thường với bất cứ phương thức nào. Vì vậy, thu nhập và chi tiêu không phản ánh được sự thay đổi phúc lợi HGĐ sau khi bị thu hồi đất.

Time: 11:00 – Thursday, 11 May 2017
Venue: Room H.001, Campus H, UEH School of Economics, 1A Hoang Dieu, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City
Abstract:
Mặc dù có nhiều nghiên cứu về tác động của vốn xã hội đến sức khoẻ nhưng các nghiên cứu trước đây chỉ tập trung vào một hoặc một vài khía cạnh của vốn xã hội và sức khoẻ. Ngoài ra, vai trò gián tiếp của vốn xã hội đối với sức khoẻ vẫn chưa được các nghiên cứu thực chứng quan tâm. Nghiên cứu này sử dụng cách tiếp cận đa chiều trong việc thao tác hoá vốn xã hội và sức khoẻ. Phân tích đường dẫn (path-analysis) về tác động gián tiếp của vốn xã hội đến sức khoẻ được khám phá bằng cách áp dụng mô hình PLS-SEM (Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Model). Nghiên cứu đã sử dụng bộ dữ liệu sơ cấp bao gồm 400 lao động di cư đến TP.HCM, được khảo sát vào năm 2016. Kết quả mô hình PLS-SEM xác nhận tác động tích cực, có ý nghĩa thống kê, của vốn xã hội đối với sức khoẻ thông qua vốn con người và thói quen ăn uống lành mạnh. Kết quả nghiên cứu đã góp thêm bằng chứng cho chiến lược huy động nguồn lực vốn xã hội vào việc cải thiện sức khoẻ cá nhân một cách trực tiếp và gián tiếp.

[STBI-170504] Easy come, easy go? economic shock, labor migration and the family left behind

Venue: Room H001, 1A Hoang Dieu Street, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City
Abstract:
This paper studies the impact of economic shocks to migrant incomes abroad on their remittance-dependent families left behind in Vietnam. Relying on destination- and skill-specific variation in the shock intensities generated by the Great Recession in destination countries, I adopt a quasi-experimental approach using a panel dataset of migrant households in Vietnam. The results show that the shock leads to heterogeneous household responses at the origin. Low-skilled households are negatively affected and cope by increasing labor supply at home and sending more migrants to foreign destinations, while reducing the number of domestic migrants. High-skilled ones remain largely unaffected. I provide a theoretical framework, which rationalizes the heterogeneity in household responses by the relative magnitudes of the income and substitution effects caused by the shock. The findings contribute to different literature in development and migration by providing evidence of a trade-off between domestic and foreign migration strategies in developing countries, highlighting migrant households’ shock coping mechanisms, and documenting the risks attached to remittance dependence at origin.

[STBI-170427] Why Vietnam insists not growing up like its neighbors?
2017-04-24 00:00
Dear professors, lecturers, researchers, colleagues, and students,
You are cordially invited to the next UEH School of Economics STBI (Small Talks Big Ideas) seminar.
Topic: “Why Vietnam insists not growing up like its neighbors?”
Presenter: Ph.D Bach D. Nguyen (Aston University, UK)
Time: 11:00 – Thursday, 27th April 2017
Venue: 1A Hoang Dieu Streeet, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City
Abstract:
You are pretty much likely heard that Vietnam is a stubbornly weird economy all over the world: “a country does not want to grow”. But do you know why? Obviously, the first reason popped up out of your mind is that (bureaucratic) government should be responsible for this stagnant development. Is it really the whole story? In this study, I will show another possibility, which is free from the influence of governance quality. The answer may be that Vietnamese SMEs intentionally remain their S and M sizes, and refuse to upgrade to L size. Using a set of representative data, this (working) study will shows facts about the performance of SMEs in Vietnam from several perspectives, and will probably set some new insights to the question: “why Vietnamese SMEs do not want to grow”.

Venue: 1A Hoang Dieu Street, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City
Abstract
The relationship between monetary policy and stock market is still argument in the literature, especially in emerging countries. The study investigates the relationship between institutional quality, macro liquidity excessive and stock market volatility, in which macro liquidity excessive is used as a proxy for monetary policy. Using a panel data of 32 emerging markets in the period of 2002 – 2013 and employing Sys GMM estimation, the study finds that the relationship between macro liquidity excessive and stock volatility is significantly negative. Interestingly, when interacting with institutional quality variables, namely regulatory quality and law indicator, the effects of institutions on stock returns are significantly negative. That means that institution quality moderates the effect of macro liquidity excessive on stock market volatility, implying that emerging countries should attend to improving institutional quality to reduce stock market volatility.

[STBI-170413] Chuyển đổi mục đích sử dụng đất và tăng trưởng kinh tế của các địa phương tại Việt Nam

Time: 11:00 – Thursday, 13 Apr 2017
Venue: Room H.001, Campus H, UEH School of Economics, 1A Hoang Dieu, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City
Abstract:
Mục tiêu nghiên cứu của đề tài là phân tích tác động của việc chuyển đổi mục đích sử dụng đất đến tăng trưởng kinh tế của các địa phương trên cả nước. Bên cạnh đó, các nhân tố khác liên quan đến đất đai như mức độ đô thị hoá, vốn đầu tư cho cơ sở hạ tầng, mật độ dân số, v.v. cũng sẽ được đưa vào phân tích để vẽ nên bức tranh toàn cảnh, giúp người đọc có được cái nhìn đa chiều cũng như hiểu rõ hơn về tầm quan trọng của các yếu tố đất đai đối với tăng trưởng kinh tế tại Việt Nam trong bối cảnh công nghiệp hoá, hiện đại hoá mạnh mẽ của những năm vừa qua. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy việc chuyển đổi mục đích sử dụng đất ở các tỉnh cũng như số lượng, doanh nghiệp, mật độ dân số và tỷ lệ doanh thu từ cho thuê đất trên tổng thu ngân sách địa phương không có tác động đáng kể lên tăng trưởng kinh tế tại các tỉnh; trong khi đó tổng vốn đầu tư cho các ngành kinh tế tại địa phương và mức độ đô thị hoá của tỉnh có tương quan đồng biến với tăng trưởng GDP. Ngược lại, tỷ lệ đầu tư cho xây dựng cơ sở hạ tầng trên tổng mức đầu tư lại có quan hệ nghịch biến với tăng trưởng GDP.
