In this research, we discuss the impacts of labour provisions in preferential trade agreements (PTAs) to which Vietnam is a party in aspects of politics, institutions, law and economy. We find that the impacts are a mixture of both positives and negatives. Positive effects include a more and more de[r]
This study was carried out to determine the suitability of sago starch blended with acrylamide as paper additive. Solutions of unmodified and blended sago starch with acrylamide, were prepared at 5% weight over volume (w/v) basis before the basic properties (i.e., pH, viscosity and solid content) we[r]
