  • Administrative Appointments in Vietnamese Universities: a Sectoral Analysis of Feasible Anti- Corruption Strategies
    Administrative Appointments in Vietnamese Universities: A Sectoral Analysis of Feasible Anti- Corruption Strategies Mushtaq H. Khan Nguyễn Văn Thắng Nguyễn Vũ Hùng1 Executive Summary: Corruption in the educational sector in Vietnam is recognized as one of the significant areas of corruption in the country. General prescriptions for attacking corruption have focused on achieving greater transparency, simplification of rules and strengthening oversight and penalties. These prescriptions are partially relevant for the educational sector as well. The approach followed in this paper argues that such generalized approaches have to be complemented with sector-specific process analysis to identify critical drivers of corruption in specific activities that are subject to corruption. The sector-specific approach argues that different organizations and individuals participate in corruption that appears to be similar for very different reasons, and unless policy identifies and targets these different reasons, it is unlikely to be effective. The general principle is applied to the case of corruption in recruitments and appointments in public Vietnamese universities. The analysis is based on intensive interviews and the triangulation of responses to construct coherent models of different processes across a range of university types. Even in this narrowly defined domain, we show that participants in these activities have a wide range of reasons for engaging in corruption, and these processes can differ across universities. We also find that some universities are ‘positive deviations’ in that they have achieved lower levels of corruption despite sharing apparently similar regulatory and financial structures. A closer examination identifies the structural differences between universities, with important policy implications. First, in a number of universities with characteristics similar to the positive deviations, reforms for introducing rules-based criteria for recruitment, promotions and administrative appointments are likely to yield results.

Xavier left Japan after two years, whereas Torres engaged in mission work for over 20 years until his death. According to newsletters from Japan published by the Jesuits, the first Christmas in Japan was celebrated in Yamaguchi in 1552.

Photo provided by the Embassy of Afghanistan in Tokyo Fascinated by Artistic Azabu ⑬ The Building of the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan in Tokyo The Embassy of Afghanistan in Tokyo is located in a quiet part of the Azabudai area, and it is similar to a magnificent palace in that it appears suddenly on high ground. There are not any adjacent houses or buildings to the site. The Embassy moved here from Yoyogi Uehara in July 2008. The former old conference building for the central government agencies (Chuokancho Godo Kaigisho) was completely renovated and transformed into this exotic and sophisticated embassy building. From the front, this building looks like a two-story building with a rooftop structure. However, viewed from the rear, the two office area basement floors are visible, revealing this to be a four-story building. On the other side of the rooftop structure (around the pole for the national flag) a small dome can be seen (photo taken in 2008).

  • Country University
    The university policy index captures the recognition policies reported to the IB by universities from around the world. This index allows you to filter by country and/or university name. The IB Student Registry (https://registry.ibo.org/) is the newly launched IB platform to connect IB schools and students with universities & colleges. The registry allows universities to create profiles outlining the various components of their IB recognition policies, including credits and scholarships awarded. This new platform will eventually replace this index. While the IB Student Registry is being introduced, this index will remain available to interested parties. But please note that the information presented here was last updated October 2015. We recommend visiting the university websites for the most up to date information and recognition policies.
