Đặtt vấn đề: Nhiều nghiên cứu về sự kết hợp điều trị giữa rosuvastatin và ezetimibe trên đối tượng bệnh động mạch vành mạn. Tuy nhiên, rất ít nghiên cứu sử dụng ngưỡng cắt LDL-C <1,4 mmol/L. Mục tiêu: Đánh giá hiệu quả điều trị rối loạn lipid máu bằng kết hợp rosuvastatin với ezetimibe ở bệnh nhân bệnh động mạch vành mạn so với đơn trị tăng liều rosuvastatin 20 mg tại Vietnam. Đối tượng và phương pháp ngiên cứu: Thử nghiêm lâm sàng đối chứng ngẫu nhiên với tỷ lệ phân bổ 1:1 single-blind trên 102 bệnh nhân có hội chứng vành mạn. Nhóm can thiệp tiến hành điều trị kết hợp bằng rosuvastatin 10 mg kết hợp ezetimibe 10 mg hằng ngày, nhóm kiểm soát sử dụng rosuvastatin 20 mg hằng ngày. Kết quả chính cần đạt được là hiệu quả kiểm soát LDL-C giữa điều tri kết hợp rosuvastatin 10 mg với ezetimibe 10mg so với đơn trị rosuvastatin 20mg sau 4 tuần và 8 tuần. Kết quả: Nồng độ trung bình LDL-C trước can thiệp, sau 4 tuần và 8 tuần ở nhóm can thiệp lần lượt là 2,84 mmol/L, 1,43 mmol/L, 1,18 mmol/L và nhóm đối chứng là 2,39 mmol/L, 1,68 mmol/L, 1,41 mmol/L (p=0,001). Sau 8 tuần can thiệp, tỷ lệ LDL-C <1,4 mmol/L ở nhóm can thiệp và nhóm chứng lần lượt là 41,2% và 74,8% (PR=1,8, p=0,0007), tỷ lệ đạt mục tiêu giảm 50% LDL-C là 60,8% và 23 ,5% (RR=2,6, p=0,001), đạt cả hai mục tiêu là 57% và 21% (RR=2,6, p=0,0003). Kết luận: hiệu quả giảm LDL-C và tỷ lệ đạt mục tiêu điều trị của nhóm can thiệp (Rosuvastatin 10mg + Ezetimibe 10mg) là cao hơn có ý nghĩa so với nhóm chứng (Rosuvastatin 20mg). Cả hai phác đồ đều an toàn trên bệnh nhân và phác đồ phối hợp cho thấy rất ít tác dụng phụ của thuốc hơn so với phác đồ đơn trị tăng liều.

Skeletal evidence of two probable cases of treponematosis, caused by infection with the bacterium Treponema pallidum, from the northern Vietnamese early Neolithic site of Man Bac (1906–1523 cal B.C.) is described. The presence of nodes of subperiosteal new bone directly associated with superficial focal cavitations in a young adult male and a seven-year- old child are strongly diagnostic for treponemal disease. Climatic and epidemiological contexts suggest yaws (Treponema pallidum pertenue) as the most likely causative treponeme. This evidence is the oldest discovered in the Asia-Pacific region and is the first well-established pre-Columbian example in this region in terms of diagnosis and secure dating. The coastal ecology, sedentary settlement, and high fertility at the site of Man Bac all provided a biosocial context conducive to the spread of treponemal disease among inhabitants of the site. Co-morbidity with scurvy in both individuals demonstrates that malnutrition during the agricultural transition may have exacerbated the expression of treponematosis in this community. Man Bac is a site of great regional importance owing to its role during the Neolithic transition of Mainland Southeast Asia. During this transition, approximately 4,000 years ago, farmers migrating from southern China into Southeast Asia influenced a number of changes in subsistence and demography and potentially introduced new infectious diseases such as treponematosis to indigenous forager communities. The findings presented here may encourage reevaluation of existing Southeast Asian skeletal samples and demonstrate the importance of using weighted diagnostic criteria for future reporting of treponematosis cases. Hai trường hợp nhiều khả năng mắc bệnh ghẻ cóc do nhiễm vi khuẩn Treponema pallidum, thuộc di chỉ Mán Bạc sơ kì đá mới Việt Nam (cal 1906–1523 B.C.) được mô tả trên bằng chứng di cốt. Sự có mặt của các hạt xương mới dưới màng xương trực tiếp liên quan đến các lỗ ổ bề mặt ở một nam trẻ tuổi trưởng thành và một trẻ em 7 tuổi là chẩn đoán nhiều khả năng cho bệnh này. Bối cảnh khí hậu và dịch tễ học cho thấy bệnh ghẻ cóc do nhiễm xoắn khuẩn Treponema pallidum pertenue là nguyên nhân phổ biến nhất. Bằng chứng trên được phát hiện muộn nhất ở khu vực Châu Á-Thái Bình Dương và là một ví dụ điển hình đầu tiên giai đoạn tiền Columbia trong khu vực này dựa vào chẩn đoán và định niên đại chính xác. Sinh thái biển, lối sống ít di động, và tỷ lệ sinh sản cao ở di chỉ Mán Bạc, tất cả đã tạo ra sự tương tác giữa các yếu tố sinh học và xã hội thuận lợi cho việc lây lan bệnh ghẻ cóc giữa các cư dân thuộc di chỉ này. Cùng với đó là sự mắc bệnh thiếu vitamin C (scurvy) ở cả hai cá thể trên chỉ ra rằng sự suy dinh dưỡng trong suốt quá trình chuyển tiếp nông nghiệp có thể trầm trọng hơn và biểu hiện bệnh ghẻ cóc ở cộng đồng này. Mán Bạc là một di chỉ vùng quan trọng bởi vì nó nằm trong ranh giới giai đoạn chuyển tiếp Đá Mới của Đông Nam Á lục địa. Trong suốt bước chuyển này, khoảng 4000 năm cách đây, các cư dân nông nghiệp di cư từ miền nam Trung Quốc vào Đông Nam Á đã ảnh hưởng nhiều thay đổi trong phương thức sinh kế, dân số, và mang theo bệnh nhiễm trùng mới tiềm ẩn như là bệnh ghẻ cóc vào các cộng đồng nông nghiệp bản địa . Các phát hiện trình bày trên đây hi vọng sẽ là khởi đầu đánh giá lại về sự tồn tại các di cốt Đông Nam Á và minh họa tầm quan trọng của việc sử dụng tiêu chí chẩn đoán tin cậy về các trường hợp bệnh ghẻ cóc cho nghiên cứu tiếp theo.

This study, building upon earlier works published from 2011 to the present, focuses on sixteenth through eighteenth century Cochinchina’s upstream-downstream networked relations and how they contributed to the re-development of the region’s economy and consequently its political and social development, with particular emphasis on its coastal ports and related trade under the Nguyễn. These relations revolve around tightly connected interactions among diverse groups including long-term resident diasporic Fujian merchant communities, newly introduced Chan Buddhist monks, maritime-based Chinese pro-Ming piratical syndicates, local Cham raiding cohorts, and the alien Nguyễn clan who in 1600 claimed political authority over the Vietnamese littoral’s central coastal region (Trung Bộ) and extended central lands (Miền Trung). The partnerships the Nguyễn established with each of these groups (merchants, monks, pirates, upstream and downstream multiethnic communities) enabled the major ports of Đà Năng, and particularly, of Hội An, to thrive and produce the income needed to support both the Nguyễn bureaucracy and its military conquest of the southern third of the littoral. Over the course of the seventeenth and into the eighteenth centuries, the Nguyễn co-opted the cultural, spiritual, and maritime-based power and influence exercised by each of each these groups in an initial effort to fulfill its dynastic ambitions that remained unfulfilled until 1802. This work moves beyond other regional studies by using the approach proposed in Michael Pearson’s writings regarding the Indian Ocean ports-of-trade littoral and extending them eastward, to the further edges of the Indian Ocean borderless world, and applying them to the complex interactions of the Vietnamese littoral populations-coastal urban and hinterland - as they contributed to the development of the central Vietnamese littoral’s ports-of-trade and of Nguyễn authority and power in this era.

While the notion of farm tourism is not new in tourism studies, it continues to evolve and take forms not previously examined. This article describes the development of this form of tourism on the outskirts of Hội An (a World Heritage Site in Vietnam) as a farming sector seeks to build on a demand being created by visitors to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization gazette site. Based on 27 informants, the article examines the nature of the agritourism products and their move towards sustainable tourism in response to demand. The article highlights (a) the nature of the products, (b) the opportunity provided by proximity to a World Heritage Site and (c) the educational background of the farmers and suggests that levels of education possess importance by enabling entrepreneurs to acquire business skills not previously available to earlier generations. In identifying this, the article contributes to a literature on how tourism products evolve in developing countries, for not only does education create skill sets but also creates an awareness of the commercial and social values of traditions and the need to retain this as expressions of cultural patterns of life.

Trong bối cảnh biến đổi khí hậu, việc có được một bản đồ lũ kịp thời và chính xác ngay khi thiên tai là thực sự cần thiết trong việc lập kế hoạch quản lý khẩn cấp nhằm giảm thiểu rủi ro thiên tai một cách hiệu quả.Nghiên cứu áp dụng một phương pháp lập bản đồ lũ lụt nhanh dựa trên hai chỉ số khác biệt lũ chuẩn hóa (NDFI – Normalized Difference Flood Index) và chỉ số khác biệt lũ trong vùng thực vật thấp (NDFVI - Normalized Difference Flood inshort Vegetation Index) từ chuỗi dữ liệu của ảnh Radar khẩu độ tổng hợp (SAR –Synthetic Aperture Radar) Sentinel-1.Hai chỉ số này được tính toán, trên các cảnh ảnh trước lũ và trong lúc có lũ, từ đó lập bản đồ các khu vực ngập nước lũ và các khu vực có nước ngập thảm thực vật thấp bằng phương pháp phân ngưỡng. Dữ liệu SAR băng tần C của vệ tinhSentinel-1 được sử dụng trong nghiên cứu này do đây là nguồn dữ liệu miễn phívà có tần suất chụp ảnh khá tốt (12 ngày). Tuy vậy, phương pháp cũng có thể được áp dụng cho tất cả các dữ liệu vệ tinh SAR băng C khác để tăng cao tần suất quan sát, một điều rất cần thiết trong theo dõi lũ. Áp dụng phương pháp trên khu vực thử nghiệm tỉnh Đồng Tháp năm 2018 cho thấy có độ tin cậy cao và hiệu quả của phương pháp qua việc đánh giá, so sánh với dữ liệu thực địa gồm143 điểm. Hiện nay, toàn bộ ảnh Sentinel-1 đã được thu thập và liên tục cập nhật trong hệ thống Vietnam Data Cube do Trung tâm Vũ trụ Việt Nam vận hành cho phép áp dụng phương pháp trên toàn lãnh thổ Việt Nam

The model of Late Pleistocene-Holocene sequence stratigraphy of the subaqueous Red River delta and the adjacent shelf is proposed by interpretation of high-resolution seismic documents and comparison with previous research results on Holocene sedimentary evolution on the delta plain. Four units (U1, U2, U3, and U4) and four sequence stratigraphic surfaces (SB1, TS, TRS and MFS) were determined. The formation of these units and surfaces is related to the global sea-level change in Late Pleistocene-Holocene. SB1, defined as the sequence boundary, was generated by subaerial processes during the Late Pleistocene regression and could be remolded partially or significantly by transgressive ravinement processes subsequently. The basal unit U1 (fluvial formations) within incised valleys is arranged into the lowstand systems tract (LST) formed in the early slow sea-level rise ~19-14.5 cal.kyr BP, the U2 unit is arranged into the early transgressive systems tract (E-TST) deposited mainly within incised-valleys under the tide-influenced river to estuarine conditions in the rapid sea-level rise ~14.5-9 cal.kyr BP, the U3 unit is arranged into the late transgressive systems tract (L-TST) deposited widely on the continental shelf in the fully marine condition during the late sea-level rise ~9-7 cal.kyr BP, and the U4 unit represents for the highstand systems tract (HST) with clinoform structure surrounding the modern delta coast, extending to the water depth of 25-30 m, developed by sediments from the Red River system in ~3-0 cal.kyr BP.ReferencesBadley M.E., 1985.

Can Gio mangrove forest (CGM) is located downstream of Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), situated between an estuarine system of Dong Nai - Sai Gon river and a part of Vam Co river. The CGM is the largest restored mangrove forest in Vietnam and the UNESCO’s Mangrove Biosphere Reserve. The CGM has been gradually facing to numeric challenges of global climate change, environmental degradation and socio-economic development for the last decades. To evaluate sediment quality in the CGM, we collected 13 cores to analyze for sediment grain size, organic matter content, and trace element concentration of Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn. Results showed that trace element concentrations ranged from uncontaminated (Cd, Cu, and Zn) to very minor contaminated (Cr, Ni, and Pb). The concentrations were gradually influenced by suspended particle size and the mangrove plants.ReferencesAnh M.T., Chi D.H., Vinh N.N., Loan T.T., Triet L.M., Slootenb K.B.-V., Tarradellas J., 2003.

Preventive detention, according to the provisions of the criminal procedure code, is considered to be indispensable in the process of handling criminal cases. In the traditional view, this measure is not only for the purpose of preventing crimes but also to create a favorable condition for the competent authority to conduct criminal proceedings in the process of handling the case. This is a popular view in science and can be seen in the criminal procedure law of socialist countries, including Vietnam. In recent years, the adoption of a rights-based approach in legislation and law enforcement has become recognized more and more by scholars and has changed the perception of preventive detention in criminal proceedings. The result is the birth of provisions on preventive detention based on the respect and protection of detainees’ human rights. This article will focus on analyzing preventive detention under a rights-based approach to provide the readers with a view arising from the need to respect, ensure, protect human rights in criminal proceedings and propose some recommendations on preventive detention on the basis of the human rights-based approach in order to improve the criminal procedure law in Vietnam. Keywords: Rights-based approach, Preventive detention, Detainee, Human rights of detainees.

Abstract: In this study, the equations for estimating the number of tropical cyclones (TCs) at a 6-month lead-time in the Vietnam East Sea (VES) have been developed and tested. Three multivariate linear regression models in which regression coefficients were determined by different methods, including 1) method of least squares (MLR), 2) minimum absolute deviation method (LAD), 3) minimax method (LMV). The artificial neural network model (ANN) and some combinations of the above regression models were also used. The VES was divided into the northern region above 15ºN (VES_N15) and the southern one below that latitude (VES_S15). The number of TCs was calculated from the data of the Japan Regional Specialized Meteorological Center (RMSC) for the period 1981-2017. Principal components of the 14 climate indicators were selected as predictors. Results for the training period showed that the ANN model performed best in all 12 times of forecasts, following by the ANN-MLR combination. The poorest result was obtained with the LMV model. Results for the independent dataset showed that the number of adequate forecasts based on the MSSS scores decreased sharply compared to the training period and the models generated generally similar errors. The MLR model tended to give out the best results. Better-forecast results were obtained in the VES_N15 region followed by the VES and then the VES_S15 regions.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the world. Cardiovascular risk assessment is an important step in preventing and treating the disease. The current study assesses the 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease in 306 VNU’s office workers in 2016-2017 based on the 2008 Framingham Risk Score. The study results show that the average risk score was 4.05 ± 4.76%; low risk was 90.52%; moderate risk: 7.85 %; and high to very high risk was 1.63%. Men have a higher risk score than women (p <0.001). The ten-year cardiovascular risk score shows that age and systolic blood pressure correlated with the risk at a medium level, and cholesterol and HDL correlated with it at a low level. Keywords Framingham Risk Score 2008, 10-year cardiovascular risk score, hypertension, blood cholesterol, blood HDL.

This paper presents basic theoretical knowledge on a perspective of transformative learning. It focuses on the definition, principles, characteristics of transformative learning, and possiblities to apply it into teaching and learning practices in Vietnam. Alternatives to innovate traditional learning approaches towards a transformative learning approach are also proposed with suggestions on the application of open-ended learning tasks. To effectively apply the transformative learning perspective in schools, it needs more applied research in which integrated approaches and cooperations among researchers from various majors are emphasized.

Abstract: A second version of the mobile marine satellite communication signal receiver station has been designed, manufactured, assembled and tested using domestically engineered mechanical modules, commercial and low-cost integrated sensors, motors and drivers. The operating mechanical components have been developed in the form of independently operating modules with handling ease and high sensitivity at a “clearance” in the order of 10µm. The sensors are of high and firm integration and good noise compensation facilities. The appropriately developed automatic control algorithms and software allow efficient and safe searching and following the broadcasting satellite of the antenna device installed on a marine transport boat. Compared to the previous version, this new development has more optimal dimensions, is easier and more flexible to start up and operate with operating parameters of pitch: 15-80° (±0.5°), yaw: of 0-360° (±0.25°), and polarization angle of 0-360° (±0.5°). The antenna turn rates are of ~12°/s and 12°/s2. All the components of the complete system are water- and weather proof and packaged to ensure safe operation in marine conditions. Running tests have been successfully taken in real sunny weather conditions on a sea boat speeding at 30 km/h with a wind velocity up to 19 km/h. The article concludes that domestically engineered, the device is more financially efficient than imported counterpart equipments as well as promising in terms of technology transfer to mass production by domestic businesses.

- Đặt vấn đề: Toluen và tricloroethylen là hai loại dung môi phổ biến được sử dụng rộng rãi trong ngành công nghiệp hóa chất với số lượng lớn thải ra hệ sinh thái, trong đó có môi trường đất đặc biệt là đất vùng trồng dược liệu. Việt Nam có sản lượng dược liệu được sản xuất ra hằng năm chiếm quy mô lớn tại các vùng trồng dược liệu trọng điểm trên khắp đất nước, tuy nhiên vẫn chưa có tiêu chuẩn định lượng dung môi tồn dư trong đất do các chất ô nhiễm trong đất có thể ảnh hưởng đến chất lượng cây trồng dược liệu. Do đó xây dựng quy trình định lượng dung môi toluen và tricloroethylen tồn dư trong đất vùng trồng dược liệu là một vấn đề cần thiết. - Đối tượng - Phương pháp: Dung môi toluen và tricloroethylen tồn dư trong đất vùng trồng dược liệu được định lượng bằng kỹ thuật hóa hơi mẫu headspace kết hợp với hệ thống sắc ký khí với đầu dò khối phổ. Quy trình được thẩm định theo hướng dẫn của ICH và tiêu chuẩn HJ642 - 2013 của Bộ Sinh thái và Môi trường Trung Quốc. - Kết quả: Quy trình định lượng dung môi toluen và tricloroethylen tồn dư trong đất vùng trồng dược liệu bằng phương pháp HS-GC/MS được xây dựng. Sau khi khảo sát, điều kiện headspace gồm thời gian ủ 30 phút, nhiệt độ ủ 70oC; điều kiện sắc ký gồm cột mao quản Elite - 5MS (30 m x 0.25 mm, 0.25 µm) với chương trình nhiệt độ gradient; khối phổ sử dụng chế độ ion hóa va chạm điện tử (EI) với dãy số khối 50 - 200 m/z. Kết quả thẩm định cho thấy quy trình có độ chọn lọc cao, khoảng tuyến tính từ 25 - 500 µg/kg, tỷ lệ phục hồi nằm trong khoảng 70 - 130% và độ chính xác có RSD < 20%, giới hạn định lượng của toluen và tricloroethylen lần lượt là 20 và 25 µg/kg. - Kết luận: Đề tài đã xây dựng thành công quy trình định lượng dung môi tồn dư trong đất vùng trồng dược liệu bằng phương pháp HS - GC/MS. Quy trình đã được thẩm định và có thể dùng để phân tích dung môi tồn dư trong đất vùng trồng dược liệu tại Việt Nam. Abstract - Background: Toluene and trichloroethylene are common solvents widely used in the chemical industry and considerably discharged into the ecosystem including the soil environment, especially herbal planting soils. Vietnam has a large annual production of herbal medicines in key planting areas across the country, but there is still no standard available to quantify residual solvents in soils because the uptake of residual solvents into plants influences herbal medicines’ quality. Therefore, it is necessary to develop and validate a method for the quantification of residual solvents in soils. - Methods: Residual toluene and trichloroethylene in soil was detected by headspace gas chromatography mass spectrometry (HS - GC/MS). The method was validated based on ICH guideline and Chinese standards HJ642 - 2013. - Results: A method for quantification and validation of residual toluene and trichloroethylene in soils was investigated. Under Optimized headspace conditions, equilibration temperature of 70°C, equilibration time of 30min; GC conditions of Elite - 5MS capillary column (30 m x 0.25 mm, 0.25 µm) with gradient temperature programming; MS conditions using electron ionization type of mass range 50 - 200 m/z. The method was shown with high selectivity and regression with a wide range from 25 - 500 µg/kg and average recoveries range was 80 - 120% and precision was below 20% and limit of quantification of toluene and trichloroethylene was 20 and 25 µg/kg, respectively. - Conclusions: The method for determination and validation of residual toluene and tricloroethylene in herbal planting soils was successfully developed. This validated method was easily applicable for analyzing the level of residual solvents in herbal soils in Vietnam.

The purpose of this article is to clarify the policy and legal provisions in the development of high-quality human resources (H-Q HR) in the field of education. A number of studies have shown that policies and laws play an important role in developing H-Q HR, but it is also a barrier if the policies and laws are not suitable for the actual development of the country. This research focuses on analyzing the real situation of H-Q HR in the field of education and training, pointing out the major successes and limitations in this field; at the same time, systematizing some practical and theoretical issues, analyzing the current situation of laws, and policies and on the development of H-Q HR in the field of education and training. From there, provide basic views and solutions to improve policies and laws on develop Cisco and Oxford Economics. (2018).

Abstract: This study has selected a vortex tracking algorithm scheme for simulating the activity of tropical cyclone in the Vietnam East Sea by CCAM model. The results show that the CCAM model is able to simulate well the large scale in each month through a reasonable description of the movement rules of the tropical cyclone in the study area. Then, this vortex tracking algorithm scheme was applied to test the seasonal forecast with the outputs of the CCAM model with a resolution of 20km for September 2018 and October 2018. The obtaining results are forecasted quite closely in terms of both quantity and high potential occurrence areas of the tropical cyclone when compared with reality. In particular, for October 2018, although the activity area of ​​the tropical cyclone - YUTU is significantly different from the multi-year average activity position, the seasonal forecast results are obtained from the 120 members of the CCAM model captured this difference. This suggests that it is possible to apply the CCAM model in combination with the selected vortex tracking algorithm scheme for the seasonal forecast of the tropical cyclone over the Vietnam East Sea region in the future. Keywords: Vortex tracking algorithm scheme, Tropical storm, Tropical cyclone, The Vietnam East Sea.

The paper presents economic value of environmental benefit thanks to cleaner production, via the reduction of cost of illness when fuel for production changed from coal to gas in Bat Trang ceramic village, Hanoi in 2008-2018. The results show that the saved cost is 40 billion dongs per year. On individual level, the average gain is 3.5 million dongs/year. This savings is enough for building new ovens in 3 years. In addition, the producers get higher profit due to fuel savings and better product quality and higher production volume. This is a good evidence that cleaner production brings both economic and social gains.

Synonymous with globalism, the mobile phone has become an integral part of contemporary everyday life. As a global medium, the mobile phone is a compelling phenomenon that demonstrates the importance of the local in shaping and adapting the technology. The adaptation and usage of the mobile phone can be read on two levels simultaneously – the micro, individual level and the macro, socio-cultural level. Symbolic of the pervasiveness and ubiquity of global ICTs (Information and Communication Technologies) in the everyday, the mobile phone demonstrates that the experiences of the local are divergent in the face of global convergence. The cultural significance of mobile technologies sees it often as a symbol for discussion around issues of democracy, capitalism, individualism and redefinitions of place. These debates are, like all forms of mediation, riddled with paradoxes. As Michael Arnold observes, mobile media is best encapsulated by the notion of “janus-faced” which sees an ongoing process of pushing and pulling whereby one is set free to be anywhere but is on a leash to whims of others anytime. This paradox, for Arnold, is central to all technologies; the more we try to overcome various forms of distance (geographic, temporal, cultural), the more we avoid closeness and intimacy. For Jack Qui, mobile technologies are indeed the ultimate “wireless leash”. These paradoxes see themselves played in a variety of ways. This is particularly the case in the Asia-Pacific region, which houses divergence and uneven adoption, production and consumption of mobile technologies. The region simultaneously displays distinctive characteristics and a possible future of mobile media worldwide. From the so-called ‘centres’ for mobile innovation such as Tokyo and Seoul that have gained attention in global press to Asian “tigers” such as Singapore, Hong Kong and Taiwan that demonstrate high penetration rates (Singapore has a 110% penetration rate), the region often plays out its dynamics through mobile technologies. The Philippines, for example, is known as the ‘texting capital of the world’ with 300 million text messages sent per day. Moreover, the region has taken central focus for debates around the so-called democratic potential of the mobile phone through examples such as the demise of President Joseph Estrada in the Philippines and the election of President Roh in South Korea (Pertierra, Transforming Technologies; Kim). Through the use of mobile technologies and the so-called rise of the “prosumer” (consumer as producer), we can see debates about the rhetoric and reality of democracy and capitalism in the region. In the case of nascent forms of capitalism, the rise of the mobile phone in China has often been seen as China’s embrace, and redefinition, of capitalism away from being once synonymous with westernisation. As Chua Beng Huat observes, after the 1997 financial crisis in the region notions of consumerism and modernity ceased to be equated with westernization. In the case of China, the cell phone has taken on a pivotal role in everyday life with over 220 billion messages – over half the world’s SMS – sent yearly in China. Despite the ubiquity and multi-layered nature of mobile media in the region, this area has received little attention in the growing literature on mobile communication globally. Publications often explore ‘Asia’ in the context of ‘global’ media or Asia in contrast to Europe. Examples include Katz and Aakhus’s (eds.) seminal anthology Perpetual Contact, Pertierra’s (ed.) The Social Construction and Usage of Communication Technologies: European and Asian experiences and, more recently, Castells et al., Mobile Communication and Society: A Global Perspective. When publications do focus specifically on ‘Asia’, they single out particular locations in the region, such as Ito et al.’s compelling study on Japan, Personal, Portable, Pedestrian: Mobile Phones in Japanese Life and Pertierra’s eloquent discussion of the Philippines in Transforming Technologies: Altered Selves. This issue of M/C Journal attempts to address the dynamic and evolving role of mobile technologies in the Asia-Pacific region. By deploying various approaches to different issues involving mobile media, this issue aims to connect, through a regional imaginary, some of the nuances of local experience within the Asia-Pacific. As a construct, the region of the Asia-Pacific is ever evolving with constantly shifting economic and political power distributions. The rapid economic growth of parts of the region (Japan, Singapore, Taiwan, Korea, Hong Kong, and now China, Vietnam, Malaysia, the Philippines and Indonesia) over the last two to three decades, has led to increasing linkages between these nations in creating transnational networks. The boundaries of the Asia-Pacific are indeterminate and open to contestation and social construction. Initially, the Asia-Pacific was a Euro-American invention, however, its ‘Asian’ content is now playing a greater role in self-constructions, and in influencing the economic, cultural and political entity that is the Asia-Pacific. There have been alternative terms and definitions proffered to describe or delimit the area posited as the Asia-Pacific in an attempt to acknowledge, or subsume, the hierarchies inherent within the region. For example, John Eperjesi has critiqued the ‘American Pacific’ which “names the regional imaginary through which capital looked to expand into Asia and the Pacific at the turn of the [last] century” (195). Arif Dirlik has also suggested two other terms: ‘Asian Pacific’ and ‘Euro-American Pacific.’ He suggests, “the former refers not just to the region’s location, but, more important, to its human constitution; the latter refers to another human component of the region (at least at present) and also to its invention as a regional structure.” (“Asia-Pacific Idea”, 64). Together, Rob Wilson and Arif Dirlik use the configuration ‘Asia/Pacific’ to discuss the region as a space of cultural production, social migration, and transnational innovation, whereby “the slash would signify linkage yet difference” (6). These various terms are useful only insofar as they expose the ideological bases of the definitions, and identify its centre(s). In this emphasis on geography, it is important not to obscure the temporal and spatial characteristics of human activities that constitute regions. As Arif Dirlik notes, “[an] emphasis on human activity shifts attention from physical area to the construction of geography through human interactions; it also underlines the historicity of the region’s formations” (What Is in a Rim?, 4). The three-part structure of this issue seeks to provide various perspectives on the use of mobile technologies and media – from a macro, regional level, to micro, local case studies – in the context of both historical and contemporary formations and definitions of the Asia-Pacific. In an age of mobile technologies we see that rather than erode, notions of place and locality take on increasing significance. The first four papers by Jaz Hee-jeong Choi, Gerard Raiti, Yasmin Ibrahim, and Collette Snowden & Kerry Green highlight some of the key concepts and phenomena associated with mobile media in the region. Choi’s paper provides a wonderful introduction to the culture of mobile technologies in East Asia, focusing largely on South Korea, China and Japan. She problematises the rhetoric surrounding technological fetishism and techno-orientalism in definitions of ‘mobile’ and ‘digital’ East Asia and raises important questions regarding the transformation and future of East Asia’s mobile cultures. Gerard Raiti examines the behemoth of globalization from the point of view of personal intimacy. He asks us to reconsider notions of intimacy in a period marked by co-presence; particularly in light of the problematic conflation between love and technological intimacy. Yasmin Ibrahim considers the way the body is increasingly implicated through the personalisation of mobile technologies and becomes a collaborator in the creation of media events. Ibrahim argues that what she calls the ‘personal gaze’ of the consumer is contributing to the visual narratives of global and local events. What we have is a figure of the mediated mobile body that participates in the political economy of events construction. The paradoxical role of mobile technologies as both pushing and pulling us, helping and hindering us (Arnold) is taken up in Collette Snowden and Kerry Green’s paper on the role of media reporting, mobility and trauma. Extending some of Ibrahim’s comments in the specific case of the reporting of traumatic events, Snowden and Green provide a wonderful companion piece about how media reporting is being transformed by contemporary mobile practices. As an integral component of contemporary visual cultures, camera phone practices are arguably both extending and creating emerging ways of seeing and representing. In the second section, we begin our case studies exploring the socio-cultural particularities of various adaptations of mobile media within specific locations in the Asia-Pacific. Randy Jay C. Solis elaborates on Gerard Raiti’s discussion of intimacy and love by exploring how the practice of ‘texting’ has contributed to the development of romantic relationships in the Philippines in terms of its convenience and affordability. Lee Humphreys and Thomas Barker further extend this discussion by investigating the way Indonesians use the mobile phone for dating and sex. As in Solis’s article, the authors view the mobile phone as a tool of communication, identity management and social networking that mediates new forms of love, sex and romance in Indonesia, particularly through mobile dating software and mobile pornography. Li Li’s paper takes the playful obsession the Chinese and South Koreans have with lucky numbers and locates its socio-cultural roots. Through a series of semi-structured interviews, the author traces this use of lucky mobile numbers to the rise of consumerism in China and views this so-called ‘superstition’ in terms of the entry into modernity for both China and South Korea. Chih-Hui Lai’s paper explores the rise of Web 2.0. in Taiwan, which, in comparison to other locations in the region, is still relatively under-documented in terms of its usage of mobile media. Here Lai addresses this gap by exploring the burgeoning role of mobile media to access and engage with online communities through the case study of EzMoBo. In the final section we problematise Australia’s place in the Asia-Pacific and, in particular, the nation’s politically and culturally uncomfortable relationship with Asia. Described as ‘west in Asia’ by Rao, and as ‘South’ of the West by Gibson, Yue, and Hawkins, Australia’s uneasy relationship with Asia deserves its own location. We begin this section with a paper by Mariann Hardey that presents a case study of Australian university students and their relationship to, and with, the mobile phone, providing original empirical work on the country’s ‘iGeneration’. Next Linda Leung’s critique of mobile telephony in the context of immigration detention centres engages with the political dimensions of technology and difference between connection and contact. Here we reminded of the luxury of mobile technologies that are the so-called necessity of contemporary everyday life. We are also reminded of the ‘cost’ of different forms of mobility and immobility – technological, geographic, physical and socio-cultural. Leung’s discussion of displacement and mobility amongst refugees calls upon us to reconsider some of the conflations occurring around mobile telephony and new media outside the comfort of everyday urbanity. The final paper, by Peter B. White and Naomi Rosh White, addresses the urban and rural divide so pointed in Australia (with 80% of the population living in urban areas) by discussing an older, though still relevant mobile technology, the CB radio. This paper reminds us that despite the technological fetishism of urban Australia, once outside of urban contexts, we are made acutely aware of Australia as a land containing a plethora of black spots (in which mobile phones are out of range). All of the papers in this issue address, in their own way, theoretical and empirical ‘black spots’ in research and speak to the ‘future’ of mobile media in a region that, while diverse, is being increasingly brought together by technologies such as the mobile phone. Lastly, we are pleased to include a photo essay by Andrew Johnson. Entitled Zeitgeist, this series of artworks sees Johnson exploring the symbolic dimensions of the hand phone in South Korea by drawing on the metaphor of the dust mask. According the Johnson, these images refer to ‘the visibility and invisibility of communication’ that characterises the spirit of our time. The cover image is by Larissa Hjorth as part of her Snapshots: Portrait of the Mobile series conducted whilst on an Asialink residency at Ssamzie space (Seoul, South Korea) in 2005. The editors would like to offer a special note of thanks to all of our external reviewers who answered our pleas for help with willingness, enthusiasm, and especially, promptness.
