service quality and hi ep customer satisfaction toward public service in Dong Nai province and the comparation of w this relationships between public administrative service and public transports service n lo ad The surveys were distributed to 230 customers (120 customers rated about public y th ju administrative service and 110 customers rated about public transport service) who had yi pl an experience working with public administrative service and public transport service in al n ua Dong Nai within the last years, a customer was randomly approached to complete a n va survey fu ll Firstly, the research proposed a model to analyze the effect of nine dimensions oi m at nh (tangibility, reliability, responsiveness, competence, courtesy, credibility, access, z communication, and understanding the customer) (Parasuraman et al 1985) of service z ht vb quality on customer satisfaction in public service Secondly, the study used Statistic k jm Package for Social Science (SPSS) to analyze data through Exploratory Factor Analysis gm (EFA) Then, the EFA results lead to the revised model identified the five service quality om l.c variables named as tangibility, reliability, competence, access and empathy The results a Lu indicated that tangible and competence have strong positive effect on customer n satisfaction Finally, the research finding confirmed that the impact of dimensions on y te re differently (public administrative service and public transport service) n va customer satisfaction toward a public service is affected by the type of public service th Keywords:

1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE RESEARCH w n Dong Nai province has 11 administrative units with 171 units of communes, wards and lo ad towns, including Bien Hoa City - the political, economic and cultural center of the y th ju province, Long Khanh Town and other districts (Long Thanh, Nhon Trach, Vinh Cuu, yi pl Trang Bom, Thong Nhat, Dinh Quan, Tan Phu, Cam My and Xuan Loc) The natural area al n ua of Dong Nai is 5,097.1 km2, with total population of more than 2.56 million people, n va including 33.23% of urban residents and 66.73% of rural residents (Dong Nai People’s ll fu Committee Brochure, 2012) The People’s Committee of Dong Nai province consists of a m oi network of 35 organizations provides a range of free and “at-cost” services (Appendix 1) at nh z Government as a big organization has its customers; those customers are the citizens, z vb businesses and public and private employees Government through its agencies, jm ht departments, and ministries provides information and services for each group of its k gm customers, and as a result this performance can be judge fairly only by the customers om l.c Service quality is an important dimension of organizational performance in the public a Lu sector as the main output of public organizations is services Moreover, profit is not the n va ultimate goal of these public organizations as they have to play different roles such as n y te re facilitator, pace setter and socio-economical developer (Arawati, Baker & Kandampully, th 2007) 9|Page The customer is the final judge of the quality of the product or the service or the t to information For the private sector, managers are concerned in many aspects that relate to ng hi the customer such as loyalty and retention, but in the public sector in general the ep customer (citizen, business), find themselves obligated to deal with different w n organizations in the public sector even if they provide their services in inefficient ways lo ad ju y th For example, the administrative procedures using at governmental agencies in Vietnam in yi general and Dong Nai in particular are bulky and complex that are affecting the pl n ua al management of Dong Nai People’s Committee on its agencies from District level to local n va At the moment, there are quite a high number of complaints filed by the public due to ll fu delays in taking actions and providing services to them by the Vietnamese public m oi organizations (Dong Nai Department of Internal Affairs, 2006) Headlines of some main nh at newspapers also highlighted complaints from the public regarding to their dissatisfactions z z with the provided services Consequently, service quality is not as expected by the ht vb k jm customers and therefore, it is quite low This matter is a concern to the public since they om l.c return (Thanh, 2009) gm are the taxpayers and therefore; they expect good services are provided to them as the a Lu At Dong Nai Department of Internal Affairs, the single window mechanism is being n applied in order to simply administrative procedures However, it is not really effective y te re Consequently, there are still negative activities such as bureaucracy, corrupt, arrogant n va for Dong Nai People’s Committee to supervise and inspect administrative procedures th behavior of officials and services… that have made people annoy, reduce their belief on the transparency of government 10 | P a g e t to III Service quality: ng - hi ep No Statement Level of agreement w Criteria : Tangibles n The bureaus have up-to-date equipment Their physical facilities
