Abstract

'You can count on your trusted friends in difficult time'. This saying symbolizes Vietnam and the World Bank Group's long-lasting partnership over the past 25 years, which grows even stronger during difficult times in Vietnam or in the global economy. This has been verified once more during the COVID-19 crisis. Today, Vietnam's timely and evidence-based response has led to tremendous success in containing the COVID-19 outbreak, with just over 300 positive cases and no deaths. The enviable success story has been applauded across the globe, and the country's experience has been recently shared by Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc at the 73rd World Health Assembly organized on May 18-19, 2020. Vietnam's successful management of COVID-19 has also been extended to the economy, so much that Vietnam is now projected to be one of the few world's fastest growing countries in 2020. Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the World Bank has shared a series of five policy notes with Vietnamese policymakers. These just-in-time notes have supported the Government in its efforts to monitor the current crisis and helped it sequentially to formulate policy responses from the health crisis management through stimulating the recovery of the economy. These notes built on expertise from around the globe, including Hanoi, Washington, DC and beyond. The diagnostics and recommendations stem from the deep dialogue that our experts have fostered with government officials and other stakeholders in Vietnam over the years. They also benefited from expertise based on successes and lessons learned in other countries.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted survey and data systems globally and especially in low- and middle-income countries. Lockdowns necessitated remote data collection as demand for data on the impacts of the pandemic surged. Phone surveys started being implemented at a national scale in many places that previously had limited experience with them. As in-person data collection resumes, the experience gained provides the grounds to reflect on how phone surveys may be incorporated into survey and data systems in low- and middle-income countries. This includes agricultural and rural surveys supported by international survey programs such as the World Bank's Living Standards Measurement Study-Integrated Surveys on Agriculture, the Food and Agriculture Organization's AGRISurvey, or the 50*2030 Initiative. Reviewing evidence and experiences from before and during the pandemic, the paper analyzes and provides guidance on the scope of and considerations for using phone surveys for agricultural data collection. It addresses the domains of sampling and representativeness, post-survey adjustments, questionnaire design, respondent selection and behavior, interviewer effects, as well as cost considerations, all with an emphasis on the particularities of agricultural and rural surveys. Ultimately, the integration of phone interviews with in-person data collection offers a promising opportunity to leverage the benefits of phone surveys while addressing their limitations, including the depth of content constraints and potential coverage biases, which are especially challenging for agricultural and rural populations in low- and middle-income countries.

Abstract

From the viewpoint of newspaper organizations the main competitive media has shrunk to only one, the internet. But the effect of this innovation has been devastating in capturing the vast majority of the advertising revenues on which newspapers have depended. The larger the internet-based media became the more newspapers and other media shrank. Pairing an academic and former industry news manager, this textbook assesses the situation in which the regional news media industry finds itself, and explores methods, processes and techniques, which might usefully be introduced to help the news media firm secure a viable future. In focusing on newspapers, magazines, TV and radio, the work is filled with real-life examples and interviews with news media managers, illustrating how management is being conducted in this age of turbulence. The goal is to give students practice in solving complex strategic problems and to provide them with a series of intellectual and professional exercises. Their method of using case studies will enable students to explore in detail key theoretical issues before applying them to real life management settings
