ETHICS CLEARANCE CERTIFICATE

Ethics Clearance Certificate is now required as part of the submission process of an article of our journal, ASEAN Journal of Management and Innovation (AJMI), which means that any author seeking publication in AJMI must submit an Ethics Clearance Certificate together with the manuscript to be reviewed.

PUBLICATION FEE

Commencing on July 11, 2024, and Volume 11 Number 2 (July-December 2024), AJMI will initiate the collection of a publication fee for all accepted and published papers. The fee is established at 4,500THB and is compulsory upon the author's receipt of the acceptance letter. As stated in Section 6 (Duties of Authors), “Submission of an article to AJMI for review implies a commitment by the author(s) to publish in the journal.”

 REVIEW PROCESS

AJMI uses a “double-blind peer review system,” meaning that the authors do not know who the reviewers are and the reviewers do not know who the authors are. All submitted manuscripts are to be reviewed by three expert reviewers per paper. Reviewers are chosen on the basis of their expertise in the topic area and/or methodology used in the paper.

Each article is judged based solely on its contribution, merits, and alignment with the journal’s mission. Should any revision be required, our instructions to authors are designed to move authors towards a successfully published article. 

 RESEARCH COMPONENTS

The article should include the following components:

• An introduction
• A review of the relevant literature 
• An outline of the research methodology/ research design
• Research findings
• A discussion of the results
• A conclusion and policy recommendations/ recommendations to managers
