Public investment is defined as an investment that is procured based on the sovereignty of the state or taxpayer's money, significantly contributing to improving economic infrastructures such as roads, railways, and social structures like welfare and education worldwide Economic infrastructure plays a crucial role in enhancing national industrial competitiveness and economic development, providing long-term benefits through increased output, income, employment, and productivity Many countries have consistently invested heavily to improve public economic infrastructure Recently, there has been a growing need for investment in social infrastructure due to population growth and widening income gaps However, government financial resources are limited, and many countries have focused on improving the efficiency of public investment Public investment has a substantial impact on the national economy and requires significant costs It is challenging to suspend projects once implementation has begun, making it essential to prepare detailed plans and assess the feasibility of public investment projects thoroughly Managing and evaluating investment projects during the intermediate phase is crucial to ensure they are being implemented as originally planned and remain feasible in new contexts if modifications occur Establishing an integrated evaluation system over the project life cycle is vital to enhance the efficiency of overall public investment management Public investment is considered the consumption of goods that reduce the savings and capital investment of an economy For low-income countries, public investment poses challenges as they often spend their scarce resources on raw material purchases rather than infrastructure Additionally, public investment can lead to inequality, as de-unionization causes disparities when public investment increases and employment reduces, creating wage inequality Thus, the mechanism by which economic growth and inequality are related is straightforward Vietnam has made significant progress in various fields, including economic growth rates, over the past 30 years since the "Doi Moi" reforms from 1990 to 2016, averaging around a certain rate.

There are two opposing trends in public investment research The first trend, as noted by Kham and Kumar (1997) and Ramírez and Nazmi (2003), highlights the importance of understanding the dynamics of public investment.
Research by Haque (2013) and others in 2007 demonstrated the positive impacts of public investment on economic growth However, some studies indicate that public investment may have no or even negative effects on economic growth, highlighting the complex relationship between public and private investment (Vedder and Gallaway, 1998; Ghania and Din, 2006; Swagg, 2007; Hatan).
The thesis research conducted at Thai Nguyen University has primarily focused on the Vietnamese context, highlighting the limitations in the reliability and intensity of the data available Currently, there is a lack of studies employing the ARDL method to evaluate the impact of public investment on economic growth.
This research aims to explore the impact of public investment in Vietnam, specifically whether it has a positive effect on attracting private investment and fostering economic growth Key questions addressed include the current role of public investment in Vietnam and its influence on economic growth.

The relationship between public investment and economic growth has garnered significant attention from researchers over the past two decades, yet their findings often present contradictions Numerous studies have been conducted globally to examine this relationship, with early research by Barth and Bradeley (1987), Easterly & Rebelo (1993), and Devagajan et al (1996) indicating that the relationship can be either positive or negative Currently, the causal connection between public investment and economic growth in Vietnam remains underexplored Previous studies primarily focus on assessing the effectiveness of government spending on economic sectors or the phenomenon of crowding out public investment, neglecting the impact of infrastructure investment on economic growth This study aims to address these gaps in research.

The Harrod-Domar growth model, introduced in the 1940s by economists Sir Roy Harrod and Evsey Domar, focuses on the relationship between investment and economic growth It highlights that a low investment-to-output ratio indicates insufficient investment, while a high ratio suggests capital wastage This model explains the connection between inputs and growth in national production, known as the production function The production function is a key concept in mainstream neoclassical theories, used to define marginal productivity and distinguish economic efficiency.
The relationship between the amounts of inputs, particularly physical capital (K) and labor (L), and the output (Y) produced by these inputs is fundamental in economic growth models The neoclassical growth model, developed primarily by Solow in 1956, and the endogenous growth theory, introduced by Romer (1986), Lucas (1988), Barro (1990), and Rebelo (1991), emphasize the significance of long-term economic growth Long-run economic growth is considered at least as important as short-run fluctuations, with a focus on understanding GDP changes over time The endogenous growth models highlight the importance of long-run growth performance, suggesting that the determinants of long-run growth rates are better explained within these frameworks Solow's model, which analyzes the origins of growth through different production functions, remains a cornerstone in understanding economic dynamics Public investment plays a crucial role in influencing economic growth by affecting aggregate supply and demand, stimulating private investment, and enhancing overall economic performance.

The neoclassical growth model framework of Solow (1957) serves as the foundation for this study This framework begins with an aggregate production function of Cobb-Douglas, which relates output to factor inputs and variables referred to as total factor productivity.

From production function theory, if we ignore factor productivity (A), the general production function can be expressed simply as \( Y = f(L, K) \) Separating the capital components, we have \( K = K_g + K_{pd} + K_{pdf} \).

Economic growth is influenced by many factors, with investment and labor being the most important Furthermore, investment plays a crucial role in driving economic development.
Several components, such as foreign direct investment, private investment, public investment, and their interactions, can have either a positive or negative impact on economic growth In some cases, there is no empirical evidence to support the relationship between these variables.

In the context of the perpetual framework of the study, Economic growth is represented by the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) index GDP serves as a general indicator reflecting the final results of production and business activities of the entire economy over a specified period It is calculated at current and constant prices, with the perpetual framework focusing on GDP calculated at constant prices (Real Gross Domestic Product).
The GDP growth rate indicates the speed at which an economy is expanding, comparing the gross domestic product of one year to that of the previous year It serves as a crucial indicator of economic health, changing throughout the four phases of the business cycle: peak, contraction, trough, and expansion A positive GDP growth rate signifies an expanding economy, while a negative rate suggests that the economy is in a recession.

The classical theory of growth, as explained by Lanza (2012), suggests that with a fixed amount of labor, assuming labor has a value, wages are determined by the level of production and the total surplus generated by capitalists This accumulation of surplus increases the demand for labor, leading to a rise in wages, especially in the context of a given population.
As wages exceed the level of subsistence, the population will increase according to the Malthusian Theory of Population With population growth, the supply of labor will rise, leading to a decline in wages back to the subsistence level.
The dynamics of growth conclude when the law of diminishing returns sets in, affecting wages and overall production, which results in no surplus for accumulation, expansion, or population growth The "magnificent dynamics" do not end with a bang but rather a whimper, as illustrated in Figure 2.1.

The vertical axis measures total production (TP), while the horizontal axis represents labor (L) and the wage line is a subsistence wage line With a population of one, production is zero, the wage per unit is one, and surplus or profit is equal to one when total production equals wages plus profits.
The emergence of a surplus leads to an increase in the demand for labor, resulting in rising wages As the demand for labor increases alongside population growth, the supply of labor remains constant However, once wages exceed the level of subsistence, growth in population is stimulated.
The population is at 0P2, indicating a surplus emerges again, specifically W2E2, as wages are driven back to the level of subsistence This process continues until the economy reaches a point E where the stagnation state is attained When W equals TP, there is no surplus, leading to the day of doom If technological progress is introduced (a shift from TP to TP'), the day of doom is postponed but not eliminated.

The iron law of wages posits that wages tend to remain above the subsistence level, challenging the notion that the Malthusian Law of Population is the sole explanation for wage determination This law emphasizes that wages are influenced by both supply and demand, rather than being determined solely by supply Additionally, it does not consider the impact of trade unions on wage determination.

It is significant to observe that, in classical theory, money is a "veil" and has nothing to do with the determination of real factors like output and employment; money plays no role in the equilibrium analysis of value and distribution in the classical system In contrast, in the Keynesian model, money tends to influence the equilibrium values of output and employment Later, Patinkin (1954) attempted to integrate value and monetary theory by introducing the real balance effect.
One of the main sources of conflict between the Keynesian and classical theories lies in the relationship between the demand for and supply of money According to classical theory, an increase in money supply will lead to higher cash holdings, and since a rational individual does not hold money for its own sake, excess money would be spent on goods and services, pushing prices upwards.

The quality of money, denoted as \$V\$, is influenced by the price level \$P\$ and total transactions \$T\$ It is assumed that \$V\$ and \$T\$ are unlikely to change substantially in the short run In such a scenario, an expansion of money supply \$M\$ will have a direct and positive impact on prices However, some critics argue that if either \$V\$ or \$T\$ or both change alongside the change in \$M\$, the direct relationship between \$M\$ and \$P\$ is unlikely to hold (Ghatak, 2003).
The new monetarists argue that as long as the demand for money remains stable, an expansion of the money supply will inevitably lead to a rise in prices, although the effects may not be immediately observable At higher price levels, the expansion of money supply would be consistent with ordinary transaction demand, which is assumed to be a fixed proportion of income.
In the Kegnesian theory, an expansion of money supply will increase bond prices and reduce interest rates, leading to higher levels of investment, output, and employment, potentially resulting in a secondary effect on prices If there is excess capacity, the impact of a rise in money supply on prices will be diminished In an underemployment situation, prices should remain unaffected as long as the supply of output is responsive to the money supply Therefore, the effect could significantly influence income, output, and employment (Ghatak, 2003).

Marx rejected several key features of classical economic growth theory and proposed his own theory within a socio-historical framework, emphasizing the significant role of economic forces In Marx's theory, the law of diminishing returns has been disregarded.
Marx believed that the classical theory of the State was essentially a reflection of human actions rather than merely the outcome of natural, immutable laws For a similar reason, Marx also critiqued the Malthusian theory of population (Ghatak, 2003).

Among various alternative methods, the EGM, originally proposed by Engle and Granger (1987), has garnered significant attention in recent years One of its key advantages is that the long-run equilibrium relationship, specifically the cointegrating regression, can be modeled using a straightforward regression involving the levels of the variables In the initial step, all dynamics are disregarded, and the cointegrating regression is estimated using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) The long-run cointegrating regression can be expressed as: \$y_t = \beta_0 + \beta_1 x_t + u_t\$, where both \$y_t\$ and \$x_t\$ are non-stationary variables integrated of order one.

The phenomenon known as the "spurious regression problem" highlights the importance of placing limited faith in standard error estimates and t-statistics in cointegrating regression Consequently, minimal significance can be attributed to standard statistical tests on t-statistics of the estimated coefficients unless a correction procedure is employed to eliminate bias Various types of corrections have been reported by Engle and Yoo (1991), Park and Phillips (1988), Phillips and Hansen (1990), and West (1988).
The second step involves estimating a short-run model with an error-correction mechanism (ECM) by the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) According to the Granger Representation Theorem (GRT), if a number of variables, such as \( \eta \) and \( \gamma \), are cointegrated, then an ECM will exist relating these variables and vice versa Additionally, in finding the cointegration between \( \eta \) and \( \gamma \), the estimate of \( \beta \) from the first step long-run regression (i) may then be imposed on the short-run model, with the remaining parameters being consistently estimated by the OLS In other words, we retrieve the estimate of \( \beta \) from Eq (i) and insert it in place of \( \beta \) in the error-correction term (\( \eta - \beta \gamma \)) in the following short-run equation.
The equation \$\Delta y_t = \alpha_1 \Delta x_t + \alpha_2 (y_t - \beta x_{t-1}) + \epsilon_t\$ represents the first differences, where \$\epsilon_t\$ is the error term In practice, since \$y_t - \beta x_{t-1} = u_t\$, one can substitute the estimated residuals from Equation (i) in place of the error term, as both will be identical It is important to note that the estimated coefficient \$\alpha_2\$ in the short-run Equation (ii) should have a negative sign and be statistically significant Additionally, to avoid an explosive process, the coefficient should take a value between -1 and 0.

The EGM is summarized by estimating Equation (i) using the OLS method and testing for stationarity of the error terms in the first step In the second step, if the null hypothesis of non-stationarity is rejected, Equation (ii) is estimated by replacing the previously computed OLS estimate with the error-corrected term or simply substituting the estimated residuals in place of the error-corrected term Most practitioners prefer the latter approach due to its simplicity In the second step, all variables and the residuals are assumed to be stationary, provided the model is properly specified.

Engle and Yoo (1991) propose a three-step estimation technique to address two major disadvantages of the classical two-step Engle-Granger Method (EGM) The first disadvantage is that while long-run stationary regression provides consistent estimates, it may not be fully efficient The second issue arises from the non-normality of the distribution of the estimators, which prevents sensible judgments about the significance of the parameters The third step corrects the parameter estimates from the first step so that standard tests, such as t-tests, can be applied For further details, refer to Engle and Yoo (1991) and related works The three steps include estimating a standard error-integrating regression of the form given in Equation (1), where \( u_t \) represents the OLS residuals to provide first-step estimates.
The article discusses the estimation of a second-step dynamic model based on the form presented in Equation (2), utilizing the residuals from the regression as an error-correction term The third step involves the analysis of the regression results.

Eпǥle and Ɣ00 (1991) compare the EǤM with the J0Һaпseп ML procedure, highlighting that while the J0Һaпseп method has certain advantages over the standard EǤM, it reaches a limit at the cost of computational complexity However, the three-step estimator achieves the same limiting distribution as the J0Һaпseп approach, in addition to an extra OLS regression from the two-step estimate.

Saikkonen (1991) proposes a new asymptotic efficient estimator that computes using the OLS method without any initial estimation The suggested long-run estimator follows a simplified structure of the Saikkonen method, particularly concerning the regression, represented as: \$$\tilde{y} = \beta_0 + \beta_1 y_t + \beta_2 \Delta y_{t-1} + \beta_3 \Delta y_{t+1} + e_t\$$
A time domain representation is achieved by adding \( \Delta y_{-1} \) and \( \Delta y_{+1} \) to the classical Engle-Granger type stationary long-run regression of Equation (i), where \( \Delta \) is the first-difference operator According to Saikkonen (1991), the primary goal is to eliminate the asymptotic inefficiency of the OLS estimator by utilizing all the stationary information of the system to explain the short-run dynamics of the cointegration regression Increasing the amount of such stationary information may reduce the relevant error covariance matrix of the cointegration regression, thereby improving the asymptotic efficiency of the estimator.

In the studies conducted by Johansen and Juselius (1988, 1991), the entire concept of cointegration becomes increasingly complex This complexity is evident in various academic works, including theses from Thai Nguyen University To simplify this, we present a straightforward version, assuming that the vector of variables \( Z \) has the following representation:

Matrix β is known as the 0-integration matrix, while matrix α is referred to as the adjustment matrix or the feedback matrix The Johansen method not only provides direct estimates of the 0-integration vectors but also allows for the construction of tests for the order (or rank) of 0-integration In a VAR model explaining P variables, there can be at most r = P-1 0-integration vectors It is commonly acknowledged that the statistical properties of the Johansen procedure are generally better, and the 0-integration test is of higher power compared to the EG one However, it is important to note that they are grounded within different econometric methodologies and thus can be directly compared In this regard, the Johansen method can be used for single-equation modeling as an auxiliary tool, testing the validity of the endogenous variable division This may also serve as a confirmation test of the single-equation model Following Hargreaves and Deadman (1992), we believe that single-equation-based and systems-based methods should be seen as complementary rather than substitutes Let us assume that the Johansen results suggest the existence of unique 0-integration vectors Then, if the estimated 0-integration coefficients have economically sensible signs and are roughly similar in size to those estimated by the EG method, this would provide some confirmation of the single-equation model to which the EG method was applied.
