More than a year after the scandal of a commune official winning the auction of 23 land lots and having the results canceled in Quynh Hung commune, Quynh Luu district has announced that the auction has been successfully re-auctioned.
More than a year ago, on June 20, 2023, the People's Committee of Quynh Luu district coordinated with Quang Cong Minh Joint Stock Auction Company to auction 56 residential land lots in the Dong Quan planning area, hamlet 5, Quynh Hung commune. The auction was conducted by indirect voting.
The results announced at the auction showed that 56 plots of land had a total area of 11,467.70 m2, was auctioned with a total starting price of 59,798,749,500 VND. After 312 customers participated in the auction, 56 lots/56 lots were successfully auctioned (100% winning rate) with a total winning bid of 85,620,500,000 VND VND. The total difference between the winning auction price and the starting price is VND 25,821,750,500 (42.7%).

However, immediately after the auction, the People's Committee of Quynh Luu district received a number of complaints that Mr. Nguyen Van Trong (a civil servant of Quynh Ba commune), the younger brother of Mr. Nguyen Van Quy - Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Quynh Luu district (the person who signed the decision approving the starting price of the above land lots), won the auction of 23 land lots, which is against regulations.
After the incident, the People's Committee of Quynh Luu district investigated and did not recognize the auction results for the 23 plots of land that Mr. Nguyen Van Trong participated in. At the same time, the Quynh Hung commune government and related units were required to redo the process to re-auction these 23 plots of land.
