Venerable Thich Truc Thai Minh was dismissed from all positions in the Church.

On July 12, the Executive Council of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha passed a resolution unanimously dismissing Venerable Thich Truc Thai Minh from all positions in the Sangha.

However, monk Thich Truc Thai Minh still holds the position of abbot of Ba Vang Pagoda in Quang Ninh.

According to Most Venerable Thich Minh Quang - Deputy Chief of the Office of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha, the positions that were removed from the monk Thich Truc Thai Minh include: Alternate member of the Executive Council of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha; Deputy Head of the Information and Communications Department of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha; Deputy Head of the Standing Committee of the Lai Chau Provincial Buddhist Sangha Executive Committee; Standing Member of the Quang Ninh Provincial Buddhist Sangha Executive Committee.

Previously, in March 2019, the press reported that Ba Vang Pagoda (Uong Bi City, Quang Ninh) organized "summoning the dead and praying to creditors" to earn hundreds of billions of dong each year.

On March 21, the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha requested the local authorities to rectify the preaching of "ghost revenge" at this facility. Uong Bi City then requested the abbot of Ba Vang Pagoda to stop the activities of "inviting ghosts" and praying to "ghost creditors".

On the afternoon of March 26, the Central Committee of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha met and concluded that Venerable Thich Truc Thai Minh and Ba Vang Pagoda had violated the Sangha Charter, "damaging the reputation of the Sangha and the Sangha". The Standing Committee of the Northern Region Executive Council proposed that the President of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha Executive Council immediately suspend Venerable Thai Minh from all positions in the Sangha.

The Church also asked monk Thai Minh to repent to the Great Monk and assigned Venerable Thich Thanh Quyet as the preceptor.
