| Abstract | Despite the government's renovation policy initiated in 1986 offering more credit to the 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 that, a majority of Vietnam's SOEs incur perpetual loss as a result of poor management and bad utilization of their work force, to name only but two of the many reasons for their inefficiency. Yet it is unquestionable that these factors are key to the success or failure of any business operation. SOEs management mechanism, still influenced by the subsidy system, does not promote business managers to be more responsible and open-minded as actually required in a market economy. There is practically no need to develop the work force in order to improve the enterprise's performance, as managers gain nothing in doing it. Employees are not motivated to perform their work well and have genuine excuses for their negligence. This study therefore tries to shed light on the many problems in human resources development (HRD) of SOEs in Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam's foremost economic and cultural center, and to suggest guidelines that would help formulate sound HRD practices |
