Ho Chi Minh City toughens on corruption, wastefulness
Secretary of Ho Chi Minh City’s Party Committee Dinh La Thang ordered drastic actions to fight corruption and wastefulness during a meeting in the city on March 8.
He took the occasion to request the launch of hotlines to acquire any complaints and for submitting proposals to the committee whenever any obstacle arises.
He also underscored the role of people-elected units, socio-political organisations, the press and the masses during the cause.
Vice Director of the municipal Police Department Phan Anh Minh said a number of corruption cases are likely to be brought to light in the foreseeable future, mostly in the fields of banking, customs, finance and land management.
Duong Ngoc Hai, Vice Director of the municipal People’s Procuracy, said large-scale corruption cases are being investigated and will, in time, be prosecuted by the municipal People’s Court.
