    Abstract
    Employee motivation is a must in any organization, both for private enterprises and state-owned ones. In Vietnam, the private sector has the flexibility to meet the remuneration needs of workers according to the natural principles of the labor market (ie, treating workers according to the law of supply and demand). However, for organizations and units which are belonging to the State, the remuneration mechanism is fixed according to ranks and employment positions. This promotes the social and political contributions of the employees. This study clarifies the motivation for employees at some chosen international research institutions under the State's governance with their own characteristics in the human resource management process, as stipulated in the relevant laws of Vietnam. The research results and research conclusions have been explained with data and figures from the survey of relevant officials and employees therein. This will be a good reference to the public management process regarding issues of employees in a unique and interesting research context. The study also employs the help of Excel and JASP 16.3 for descriptive data analyses and SEM-CB model confirmation of the organizational motivation scheme.
