摘要：Despite the government’s renovation policy initiated in 1986 offering more credit to private sector, state owned enterprises (SOEs) still play a dominating role in Vietnam’s economic development and absorb a large proportion of the country’s resources. In spite of this, a majority of Vietnam’s SOEs continues to incur losses. The reasons for these losses are many; however, two in particular stand out, namely poor management and bad utilization of their work force. It is unquestionable that these two factors are key to success or failure of any business operation. SOEs management mechanism, admittedly influenced by the subsidy system, does not encourage business managers to be more responsible and open minded as actually practiced in a market economy. There is practically no perception from the management to develop the work force in order to improve the enterprise’s overall performance, as managers are not strictly evaluated by organizational results. On their turn, employees are unmotivated to perform their work well and always have ready excuses for their negligence. This study, therefore, tries to shed light on the different problems in human resources development (HRD) of SOEs in Ho Chi Minh City, considered as Vietnam’s economic and cultural center, and to suggest guidelines that would help formulate sound HRD practices.
