Design/methodology/approach: Using quantitative survey data collected from senior and middle managers in manufacturing firms, SCP was assessed through environmental, economic and social dimensions. The study applies partial least squares structural equation modelling to test direct, mediating and moderating relationships among GTL, GCSR, GIC, DTC and SCP. Findings: The results indicate that GTL strengthens sustainability-related resources and practices, leading to improved SCP. GCSR positively influences both SCP and the development of GIC, which functions as a key mechanism linking leadership to sustainability outcomes. Furthermore, DTC enhances the positive effect of GCSR on SCP, suggesting that digital capability amplifies the performance impact of environmental responsibility initiatives. Practical implications: Managers in food manufacturing firms should promote GTL and integrate GCSR into strategic planning to build GIC. Strengthening DTC can further maximise sustainability performance, particularly in food manufacturing contexts. Originality/value: The study integrates GTL and GCSR within a unified framework, identifying GIC as a central mediating mechanism and DTC as a critical boundary condition influencing sustainability performance in manufacturing organisations. 2025-01-01T00:00:00Z https://digital.lib.ueh.edu.vn/handle/UEH/78356 Title: Toward System-Wide Resource Sharing in Vietnamese Teacher Education through a Shared Portal Model Author(s): Le Van Hieu; Pham Thi Tra; Huong Thi Pham Abstract: Amid ongoing reforms to teacher education in Vietnam, the government’s higher-education restructuring places renewed emphasis on cooperation across the network of teacher-education universities. In this context, interlibrary collaboration and resource sharing are critical to expanding access and improving the quality and efficiency of provision. This study assesses library information, resources, and services; examines usage; and elicits stakeholder views on cooperation models across seven universities of education. This study used a cross-sectional survey conducted in late 2024 with a total of 2,346 participants, including library users, library staff, and institutional managers. Findings reveal sizeable disparities among institutions alongside strong, cross-stakeholder readiness to collaborate and near-consensus on the necessity of doing so. Respondents converge on a portal-first design—namely, a shared, centralised discovery-and-request platform with single-sign-on authentication—as the most practical and widely supported model. Enabling conditions prioritised include interoperable management systems, robust IT infrastructure, harmonised cooperation policies, and sustainable funding; professional development emerges as a crucial, yet currently underweighted, prerequisite. From the results of this study, it is suggested that a phased implementation offers a feasible pathway to durable, system-wide resource sharing. Such an implementation requires the alignment of software stacks, standardised policies, and investments in staff training. 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z https://digital.lib.ueh.edu.vn/handle/UEH/78355 Title: Neoliberal pension reform in Viet Nam: how do global pension proposals and their implementation (dis)Serve local people? Author(s): Bich Nguyen; Carolyn J. Cordery; Lisa Marriott Abstract: In many countries in the Global South, elderly poverty is widespread. International reformers, including the World Bank, encourage pension policy reform to alleviate old-age poverty and improve pension systems’ financial sustainability. Focusing on Viet Nam, we ask how global neoliberal pension proposals, and their implementation (dis)serve local people, especially those with low lifetime income. The proposals are underpinned by actuarial techniques and focus on improving the financial position of the pension system. We find they advocate that citizens take self-responsibility by joining a contributory pension plan, therefore insufficiently addressing old-age poverty for elders in need. Our data also shows that emphasizing actuarial techniques has blurred cultural aspects of familial reciprocity. Using neocolonial concepts, we explain how local people with subordinate positions as the subaltern express non-violent resistance and implement piecemeal resilient strategies as they attempt to overcome poverty. Nevertheless, such resilience is not advocated by global and local elites with neoliberal agendas. We identify the need for policy advisors of development projects to consider the consequences of using financial logic as a dominant tool; it is likely to denigrate beneficiaries’ views and practices that appropriately respond to local circumstances. It is important to respect and incorporate beneficiaries’ views and practices as co-participatory tools alongside financial techniques to benefit those in need. 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z https://digital.lib.ueh.edu.vn/handle/UEH/78353 Title: Internal Control Systems and Technological Capabilities as Drivers of Bank Risk Management for Advancing Sustainable Development Goal 16 Author(s): Tang My Sang; Nguyen Quoc Anh Abstract: We thus conduct this study to investigate the contribution of both internal control systems and technological capabilities on bank-wide risk management and its effect on institutional transparency, and towards SDG 16 (Sustainable Development Goal). Based on data from 448 senior managers of 26 commercial banks in Vietnam, this study utilizes Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling to analyse the relationships among various internal control elements, technological integration, risk management, and institutional outcomes. We found that all five elements of the internal control mechanism help enhance risk management. For monitoring, it has the strongest effect, followed in the order of information and communication, control activities, control environment, and risk assessment. The big data capability has little effect on the application of artificial intelligence, but the application of artificial intelligence does have a real impact on risk management. The research also suggests that risk management contributes to the SDG directly and to institutional transparency. Institutional transparency, in addition, contributes positively to SDG as well as being a partial mediator between risk management and SDG. These results indicate that enhancements in internal control mechanisms and adoption of technology enhance risk governance, resulting in more institutional transparency and advancement towards SDG. The study adds to the literature by explaining how risk management and transparency link and contribute towards sustainable development in banking. It also has implications for policymakers and banking executives who wish to enhance institutional integrity and resilience in emerging economies 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z
