Abstract: In this paper, the sources of China's economic growth are decomposed from the perspective of global linkage. The conclusions include: (1) During the period of analysis, the forward linkage degree of China's economy increased while the backward linkage degree had not been promoted effectively; (2) China's economic dependence on Asia areas declined, while its dependence on North American and development countries increased. (3) In the past twenty years, the rapid growth of China's economy is the result of both internal and external factors. The positive impact of the changes in the global input-output structure on China's economy is mostly short-term and temporary. Finally, this paper puts forward the pertinent policy suggestions.

Abstract: Vietnam Airlines (VNA) can add more value to its offerings to pursue differentiation strategy as a competitive advantage by maximizing effectiveness of the ground handling service network it hires. This paper aims at making recommendation to VNA on using a set of managerial tools to monitor and continuously improve its service network being operated at 29 international airports. The tools include cluster analysis, ANOVA and Scheffé post hoc to assist the top managers (1) to have an overview of VNA ground handling service quality at world-wide airports by monitoring the performance of airport clusters instead of an individual airport; (2) to clearly observe its effective and ineffective airport clusters on every certain criterion. With this set, the management board can decide strategic management for ground handling service not only to be more effective and more feasible but also to be in line with marketing strategy to differentiate its offerings to excel in the fierce air industry competition.

Abstract: Taking 2012-2015 Chinese A-Share listed companies as the research object, this paper studies the impact of executive influence and poverty experience on the performance of corporate social responsibility. The results show that: executive influence is positively correlated with performance of corporate social responsibility, the higher the executive influence, the better corporate social responsibility is; compared with non-state-owned enterprises, executive influence has more influence on the performance of social responsibility of state-owned enterprises. poverty experience is positively correlated with performance of corporate social responsibility, the higher the poverty experience, the better corporate social responsibility is. Further research found that: executive poverty experience helps to strengthen the positive correlation between executive influence and corporate social responsibility, we should pay attention to the role of executive influence, at the same time cannot be ignored the effect of executive poverty on promoting the performance of corporate social responsibility.

Abstract: It is undeniable fact that manufacturing sector plays key role in growth of any economy and it is from this sector developing countries can catch-up with the rest of the world. While other countries are struggling in upgrading the level of their industrialisation to accommodate the concept of sustainability by going for more advanced and green technology hence increase productivity, others are still on the ground struggling to take off and catch-up with industrialized world, Tanzania being one of them. In spite of various strategies proposed and implemented, the sector contribution has remained low, and currently statistics shows a decline. From analysis, it is evidently that manufacturing sector remain to be significant for the growth of Tanzania’s economy despite her small GDP share relative to other sector like agriculture and service. The stagnant contribution share of sector is linked with; implementation lags on ambitious uncoordinated plans, slow transforming economic structure which is dominated by agriculture, and competition from low priced manufactured import from Asian economies. Thus, the best way to go is for a country to centrally coordinate all development policies to ensure connectivity and progressive monitoring of policies’ implementations, and attention should be paid on agro-allied resource-based industries which are labor-intensive and value-adding which will ensure massive job opportunities to large agricultural population and take advantage of vast arable agricultural land available.
