These abnormal trades are identified based on the trading activities of foreign investors across a sample of 27 joint-stock commercial banks listed on the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange (HOSE) and the Hanoi Stock Exchange (HNX) during the period from 2006 to 2023. The study employs cross-sectional Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression as the primary estimation method. The results reveal that abnormal buy trades, especially those occurring on net buying days, are associated with significant positive abnormal returns. Conversely, abnormal sell trades, particularly on net selling days, lead to an increase in the magnitude of negative abnormal returns. In contrast, stock-specific characteristics exhibit no significant effect on abnormal returns. These findings offer important implications for policymakers and investors operating in emerging markets such as Vietnam.

Given its advantages, the Ministry of Education and Training has encouraged the implementation of STEM education at the lower and upper secondary levels. To assess the current status of STEM teaching in lower secondary schools, we conducted a survey involving 60 teachers from secondary schools in Ba Ria - Vung Tau. The findings provide a practical basis for proposing measures to enhance the effectiveness of STEM education implementation.

This diversity in both quantity and variety presents certain challenges for translators. The method of writing foreign personal names and place names from Chinese into Vietnamese is a more extensive topic than just writing foreign names in Vietnamese. This study synthesizes various research perspectives and surveys some specific language data to propose some suggestions for translating foreign personal names and place names from Chinese into Vietnamese in the context of teaching translation.

This paper analyzes his poetry collection Nyanyi Sunyi (Song of Silence) to explore the convergence of Islamic spirituality and Romanticism within the framework of modern Indonesian literary expression. The results indicate that Amir Hamzah masterfully intertwined religious themes with the emotional depth and aesthetic qualities of Romanticism, thereby producing a seminal work that significantly enriches the canon of modern Indonesian poetry.

Effective implementation of tourism's economic, social, and environmental responsibilities is crucial for fostering responsible tourism. This study aimed to analyze these responsibilities and identify measures to enhance tourism's accountability in Lai Son Commune, Kien Giang Province. Data analysis revealed that residents perceive significant economic benefits of tourism and are less negatively affected in terms of the environment. From a social perspective, residents agreed that tourism improved their livelihoods and quality of life. However, they limited material support, information, and opportunities for contributing feedback on tourism development. Residents expressed strong support for the proposed measures for increasing tourism's responsibility. Based on these findings, the study offers several managerial implications to facilitate responsible tourism development in the locality.

Simultaneously, it analyzes the favorable and unfavorable factors affecting such implementation. The main agrumment is that the signing and execution of bilateral and multilateral treaties, agreements, and understandings regarding Vietnam's land borders are primarily driven by the political determination and bilateral relations among the involved parties. Furthermore, the role of international law and multilateral organizations provides a crucial foundation for effective border delimitation, marker installation, and border management. These efforts contribute significantly to preventing disputes, and various non-security issues. Notable achievements are evident in the completion of the legal and technical framework for land border delimitation. However, the implementation process continues to face numerous challenges stemming from the influence of political situations, historical legacies, and nationalism. These factors exert varying degrees of impact on different sections of the border.
