Abstract: The study “Officials’ Perception of the Content Mobilization Work of the Party Committee Level in the City of Hai Phong in a New Era” provides an in-depth evaluation of how officials understand and apply the Party’s viewpoints on civil mobilization. This research is particularly relevant in the context of Vietnam’s ongoing socio-economic transformation and the increasing emphasis on participatory governance. Through comprehensive surveys and rigorous quantitative analysis, the study explores the depth of officials’ awareness, the key factors influencing their perceptions, and the limitations they encounter in implementation. Findings reveal that while most officials recognize the fundamental role of civil mobilization in fostering trust between the Party and the people, there are noticeable inconsistencies in comprehension and execution across different levels of governance. Some officials, particularly at the grassroots level, struggle with mastering the principles and methodologies required to adapt civil mobilization strategies to the evolving socio-political landscape. This lack of proficiency hinders the effectiveness of mobilization efforts, leading to gaps between policy intentions and real-world outcomes. Furthermore, the study highlights a range of external challenges that complicate civil mobilization work. The rapid pace of digital transformation has altered traditional communication dynamics, requiring officials to develop new skills and approaches to engage with the public effectively. Socio-economic changes, including urbanization, labor migration, and shifting demographics, have also introduced complexities that demand more adaptive and inclusive mobilization strategies. Additionally, coordination challenges between different administrative units and levels of government further limit the efficiency of mobilization efforts. To address these issues, the study proposes a series of strategic solutions. Enhancing officials’ theoretical and practical understanding of civil mobilization through training programs is a key recommendation. The study also emphasizes the need for modernizing mobilization approaches by leveraging digital tools, strengthening inter-agency collaboration, and fostering a more responsive governance framework. By implementing these solutions, Hai Phong can improve the effectiveness of civil mobilization work, thereby reinforcing the relationship between the Party and the people, ensuring social stability, and promoting sustainable development in the city.

Abstract: In recent years, incentivising civil servants to work has been at the heart of future civil service reforms in many countries. To investigate the micro-mechanism and its boundary conditions of grassroots civil servants' competency on their individual work dynamic, this study explores the influence of grassroots civil servants' competency on work dynamic, the mediating role of occupational resilience and the moderating role of organizational fault-tolerant climate. Data were obtained from 667 grassroots civil servants in China and analyzed with regression analyses by the PROCESS macro. The results showed that competency of grassroots civil servants can significantly enhance their work dynamic; occupational resilience plays a mediating role in competency and work dynamic, specifically, occupational resilience plays a complete mediating role in the relationship between public service motivation and work dynamic, and a partial mediating role in the relationship between job autonomy and work dynamic among grassroots civil servants; the direct relationship between three sub-dimensions of competency (ability, public service motivation and job autonomy) and work dynamic of grassroots civil servants is negatively moderated by organizational fault-tolerant climate. The findings of the study provide useful insights for deepening theoretical research on the work dynamic of grassroots civil servants, and for enhancing the effectiveness of the incentive system in management practice.

Abstract: Using a quantitative research method, this study analyzes a dataset of 396 observations from 37 Vietnamese securities companies during the period 2013–2023. It examines the impact of various factors on the business performance of these companies, with a particular focus on the role of years of operation. The findings reveal that company size and gender diversity have a positive effect on business performance. In other words, larger companies and those with greater gender diversity tend to achieve higher performance. Conversely, higher inflation and long-term lending interest rates negatively affect business performance, meaning that increased inflation and interest rates lead to lower profitability for Vietnamese securities companies. A notable aspect of this study is its exploration of the impact of years of operation. The results indicate that securities companies operating for 10–15 years experience the lowest business performance, while those in the 5–10-year range achieve the highest. Interestingly, companies with 20–25 years of operation perform better than those in the 10–15-year group. Furthermore, firms with 15–20 years of experience tend to outperform those in the 20–25-year category. These findings are consistent with real-world business trends and provide valuable insights for industry practitioners. The study serves as a foundation for proposing policy recommendations to enhance the business performance of Vietnamese securities companies, helping them navigate economic fluctuations and improve their competitiveness in the market.

Legal Risks of Digital Governance in the AI’s Era --- Concerns About the Power’s Digitization

Abstract: The power’s digitalization in the era of artificial intelligence refers to the deep coupling of technical logic and power logic after digital technology is embedded in the power operation mechanism, thereby promoting a more comprehensive technological transfer in power distribution. With the assistance of technology, power has moved behind the scenes, but the power's ability to control society has been enhanced. The external characteristics of this phenomenon are strong technicality, concealment and intrusion. There are three aspects of the internal logic that led to its emergence: human digital survival has become the norm, the diffusion effect of power is significantly better than its coercive power, and the black box operation space brought by digital technology and people's dependence on digital codes. Using comparative research, empirical research and literature analysis, the challenges encountered by traditional administrative rule of law are explained. The basic principles of modern administrative rule of law established since the 19th century are quietly changing, especially in two aspects: digital technology has eliminated the basic rights of citizens represented by privacy rights and basic political rights, making discretionary power difficult to control and the definition of traditional legal responsibilities difficult. These are challenges to the basic principles of modern administrative law since the 19th century. Controlling or narrowing the legal gaps caused by the digitization of power, combining public and private law protection of citizens' right to information, and establishing a legality review system for technology operations centred on the controllability of digital technology and public participation should become a feasible approach.

Abstract: Liquidity management has become a pressing concern for real estate firms in Vietnam, especially amid recent challenges such as credit tightening, rising interest rates, and macroeconomic uncertainty. The real estate sector, being highly capital-intensive and exposed to long project cycles, is particularly vulnerable to liquidity risk. While previous studies have extensively examined financial and macroeconomic factors affecting liquidity, little attention has been paid to the role of corporate culture - an intangible yet critical determinant of financial behavior and sustainability. Grounded in corporate governance and behavioral finance theories, this study investigates the impact of corporate culture on the liquidity of listed real estate enterprises in Vietnam. The Board Ownership (BO) ratio is employed as a proxy for corporate culture, while the Cash Flow ratio (LC) is used to measure liquidity. The research analyzes panel data from 49 listed real estate firms between 2014 and 2023 using a multivariate regression model. The empirical findings show that BO has a statistically significant positive effect on liquidity, suggesting that firms with stronger ownership alignment adopt more cautious and effective liquidity strategies. In addition, profitability (ROE) and economic growth (GDP) enhance liquidity, whereas a longer average collection period (RE) weakens it. These insights contribute to the understanding of non-financial determinants of liquidity and offer practical implications for corporate managers, investors, and policymakers.
