Exploratory Study on Factors Influencing Digital Transformation in Higher Education in Vietnam

Digitization, digitalization, and digital transformation are the levels and stages of digital technology application development. Digital transformation involves using digital data and technology to fundamentally and comprehensively change all aspects of socio-economic life, reshaping the way work is done and relationships are formed in society. Digital transformation in Vietnam is taking place in many fields such as commerce, tourism, business, finance, and education. Vietnam's Ministry of Education and Training has policies, regulations, and programs to promote digital transformation in the industry, from nurse-school education, primary education, secondary education, high school education, vocational education, and higher education. This paper employs quantitative research methods to construct a model investigating the factors influencing digital transformation in the education sector in Vietnam through surveys of educational managers, lecturers, and learners. From data collected with 193 valid responses, using SPSS.22 to process data analyze data, and formulate regression equations the study identified five factors influencing digital transformation in the higher education sector in Vietnam, including Infrastructure resources, Information technology, and the Internet, Government policies, Human Resources, and Readiness for Digital Transformation.

Digital transformation in Vietnam: the impacts on external auditors and their practices

Purpose This study aims to explore some perceptions related to the suggestion that external auditors will be replaced by audit technologies that use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to make audit judgements when performing the financial statement audits. Digital transformation is revitalising the technologies used by external auditors and their firms; thus, the authors seek to understand what challenges this creates for the auditing profession in Vietnam. Design/methodology/approach Through the theoretical lens of new institutionalism theory, this study uses a qualitative approach involving 20 semi-structured interviews conducted with external auditors in Vietnam during 2022. This sample includes the global Big Four, global mid-tier and smaller local Vietnamese audit firms. Findings The findings indicate that there is resistance or disagreement with the suggestion that in the future audit technologies using AI tools can replace humans (external auditors). The role of external auditors in the professional services sector will gradually be changed by audit technologies; however, external auditors are unlikely to be replaced by audit technologies that use AI tools based on the responses of the participants. Strict institutional rules that exist in Vietnam would prevent the replacement of (human) external auditors. In the future, external auditors may take on new roles as consultants, with unique skills in classifying and processing data for decision-making processes; however, they will not be completely replaced by technology in the audit space. Research limitations/implications This study has limitations that it is based on the data collection from a single developing country, Vietnam; therefore, the generalisability of the findings is limited to Vietnam. Also, the authors sought insights into the future of external audits in Vietnam. Practical implications This study highlights the changing role of auditors and institutions. Thus, policymakers, external auditors and auditees in other developing countries would find the findings helpful. Originality/value This study provides new perspectives, particularly from local Vietnamese firms, about audit practices that emerge due to high-level technological advancements and then embed themselves into existing audit practices in an emerging economy. Prior studies tended to focus on the global Big Four firms, thus this study contributes by sharing the perceptions of the smaller practitioners also.

Does digital transformation reduce bank's risk-taking? evidence from vietnamese commercial banks

This study examines whether digital transformation reduces banks' risk-taking in the Vietnamese commercial banking sector. Our research sheds light on how banks' digital transformation affects their risks, specifically regarding credit, insolvency, and liquidity. The study utilizes the readiness index for the Vietnamese commercial banks' Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Index, which the Vietnamese government has officially constructed. The OLS, PCSE, and FGLS models are employed to analyze how digital transformation reduces banks' risk-taking based on the longitudinal data from 26 commercial banks in Vietnam from 2013 to 2022. The results indicate that digital transformation significantly reduces credit risk by improving risk management capacity and reducing asymmetric information. It also helps mitigate insolvency risk by lowering costs and increasing profitability. However, digitalization does not significantly impact liquidity risk as digital channels leverage banks' lending and deposit activities. This research provides empirical evidence on the role of bank digitalization in risk-taking and concludes with recommendations for developing bank digital transformation in Vietnam and other developing countries, including suggestions for further research in this area.

The trend of economic structural transformation in Vietnam during the 2010 - 2022 period

This article is based on secondary data from the General Statistics Office and the World Bank. Using criteria to assess economic structural transformation, the article aims to evaluate the trend of economic structural transformation in Vietnam in recent years. The research results indicate that since 2010, the economic sector has shifted from a significant reliance on agriculture, forestry, and fisheries to an increasing share of industry, construction, and service sectors in the country's GDP structure. Labor in various economic sectors has shown a shift with a decreasing proportion in the agricultural, forestry, and fisheries sectors and an increasing proportion in the industry, construction, and service sectors. Vietnam's export product structure has also positively shifted, with a reduced proportion of agricultural and forestry products and an increased share of industrial processing, manufacturing, and services. The industrial and construction sectors have the highest labor productivity among the three economic regions, while the agricultural, forestry, and fisheries sectors have the lowest labor productivity. Alongside the achievements, the process of economic structural transformation in Vietnam still faces various difficulties and certain limitations. Based on these findings, the article proposes some recommendations for a more rational and sustainable transformation of the country’s economic sector.

Asymmetrical power relations and their influences on climate change adaptation and transformation in Vietnam

In response to a recent call on reducing social inequality and improving climate resilience, the attention has been shifted to examine power relations that influence disadvantaged groups’ representation in adaptation policy and decision-making. While current studies have mainly examined micropolitics of power and agency in democratic countries or based on gender perspective, this research uses a qualitative case study approach that investigates the dynamics of power relations in climate adaptation processes in Vietnam. I draw upon the politics of adaptation framework with a focus on subjectivities and everyday resistance to scrutinize if and how local farmers negotiate, comply with or contest the centralized hierarchical structure in adaptation. The research advances knowledge on subject-making processes and multifaceted political agency in navigating power asymmetries and authoritarian adaptation governance.

Striving to be Men in the Family: Masculinity and Capitalist Transformation in Vietnam

Women in Vietnam, historically and today, have participated in the labor force at a high rate. Since Vietnam opened its markets in 1986, their participation has noticeably declined. Given this change, what does economic transformation mean for how men understand the place of women in society, and relatedly, what does it mean for how they understand masculinity? Through ethnography and interviews with 53 men in Ho Chi Minh City, I find that Vietnamese men in this urban center aspire for projects of masculinity that rely on the reimagination of Vietnamese women as non-workers in history. My findings show that men from different economic positions and occupations evidence divergent views of the family and women’s role in it. Men who are employed in waged occupations with a high school degree or less seek to realize “tradition” through the single-income family and the homemaker wife, yet this family is not necessarily an echo of the past. By contrast, men in salary paying occupations with some or complete college education view the dual-income family and the female worker as progressive despite the long history of women’s labor in Vietnam. This finding presents an opportunity to understand how masculinity as an ideal, a process, and a lived experience occurs during moments of economic transformation.

Understanding the Socialist-Market Economy in Vietnam

The economic reform started in 1986 has transformed Vietnam from one of the world’s poorest countries 35 years ago to a lower middle-income country (MIC) in 2010. Poverty rates dropped from 70% in 1986 to below 2% in 2021. The transition from a central planning system to a socialist market economy is the fundamental underlying factor of Vietnam's success. Using the historical institutional framework that Lee (2018) [1] developed, this study aims to explore the country’s transition from a central planning system to a socialist market economy over the past three decades. The findings demonstrate that the country’s transition to a socialist market economy has been taking a gradualism and dualism path like China. In addition, the study also illustrates how the economic reform and globalization processes pushed the institutional transformation in Vietnam to meet the demands of multiple economic sectors and ownerships as well as accommodate international commitments that the country entered. Finally, Vietnam has been cautious in its political reform over the past few decades. Yet, this is inevitable as a result of the country’s socio-economic development process as well as the global and regional rapid changing context. The implications for Vietnam include: (i) Vietnam needs to transform its growth model toward a knowledge-based, higher-added-value, and more environmentally-friendly pattern; (ii) while there is significant progress in institutional transformation, bottlenecks and challenges remain. This should be addressed effectively to unlock the country’s potential; (iii) political system reform is inevitable as conditions are mature. Domestic demands and international requirements are putting increasing pressure on the changes. However, this process will likely move forward and take place within the political system rather than by civil society or outsiders. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2022-06-05-03 Full Text: PDF
