Labour turnover arising from sexual harassment at work is dangerous for the long-term development of any service company since it leads to a loss of talent and an increase in costs. Although Vietnam’s workplace is relatively safe, sexual harassment is still a prevalent problem in employment, albeit hidden by cultural perspectives. This qualitative research is conducted to revisit the relationship between sexual harassment and labour turnover through the lens of job positions among Vietnamese service employees. This study uses focus groups to obtain feedback and insights into sexual harassment at the workplace and its implications on turnover intentions among service staff. The findings show that sexual harassment is still a prevalent issue that is under-researched and addressed in the Vietnamese service workplace. The research results provide different viewpoints and relevant recommendations for service companies in Vietnam to embed the company’s values and clarify the workplace behavioural expectations to strengthen employee protection and reduce labour turnover.","PeriodicalId":42665,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Asia Pacific Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80220138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While religion represents the pursuit of noble values namely truth, beauty, happiness, holiness, and selflessness, doing business is unanimous with the worship of material wealth. However, a closer examination would reveal the interrelations between these two realms. A strong religious belief can actually have significant influence on the way the believers engage in their businesses toward the path of righteousness, and a thriving business could, in turn, enhance the followers’ commitment to the religion. Although the connection between religious belief and economic activities has been discussed in the literature, limited scholarly attention is paid on the phenomenon among the Catholics in Vietnam, a community that has not been examined considerably on areas other than their religious practices or political involvement in the past. Based on an ethnographic study of the Catholics’ economic activities in the Mekong Delta, especially in Cái Mơn Parish in Bến Tre province and the Main Parish in Cần Thơ city, this article argues that religious beliefs could influence and govern the economic behaviour of Catholic followers through the values of honouring God, justice, and charity. These values have inspired the principle of “getting rich righteously” among the Catholics in the Mekong Delta and motivated them to fulfil their civic obligations in society at large. Findings from this study helps shed light on the religious beliefs—economic activities engagement and contribute to the literature on Catholics’ economic activities in Vietnam, an area which remains understudied.","PeriodicalId":42665,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Asia Pacific Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90984176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Special District Province of Yogyakarta, formally known as Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat Sultanate, is one of the provinces whose territory and government have existed before Indonesia’s independence. When Sultan Hamengku Buwono led this province as the king, it significantly enjoyed many privileges within the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia, which apply to date. However, it is still possible to find discriminatory policies, especially in the agrarian sector, aimed explicitly at the Indonesian Chinese community due to the implementation of the Governor Instruction of 1975. As a result of this policy, the Indonesian Chinese are not entitled to land ownership rights in this region. This discriminatory policy serves as a window to explain how the social, cultural, political, and historical structures of Yogyakarta impact the implementation of the legal pluralism concept within the Republic of Indonesia. Historical and legal approaches within the socio-legal framework are used in this research.","PeriodicalId":42665,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Asia Pacific Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78264266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This cardinal tenet involves, on the one hand, the decidability adopted by the phenomenon of collecting that is determined by its power to be registered or interpreted based on the enunciative dynamics of the museum field; on the other hand, I shall argue that this stems from its failure to constitute itself as an object which can exist outside the museum’s jurisdiction. Regarding this dependence or analogy of Asian Collecting on the area of influence of the museum, this investigation will describe the rules of formation which inform said dependence. By rules of formation, I shall refer to the possibility of a “language”, or special enunciation, dominion of the Museum over its objects, articulations, and its reproducible and verifiable scope areas. Specifically, two laws of museality will be developed in the present article, the museum’s heterotopia and the taxonomy of what is real. The Museum’s domain shall constitute, or rather, express, the positivity which is englobed in the concept of museality in reference to Michel Foucault’s definition. As such, this article focuses on the description of norms and rules which make up museality, and the manner in which Asian Collecting is subsumed to and made visible by the concept. For this article, catalogues of Asian collections—once belonging to private Chilean collectors—available in Chile will be used.","PeriodicalId":42665,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Asia Pacific Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72424630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
