At the press conference, many questions related to the Dong Tam incident (My Duc, Hanoi) were raised by the press such as whether the Government Inspectorate (GIA) will investigate land-related issues in Dong Tam and participate in Hanoi's 45-day inspection or not? Are there any plans to change the way people are received in the near future?

Answering these questions, Mr. Ngo Van Khanh, Deputy Inspector General of the Government (GIG), said that this is a very hot issue, directly related to the tasks of the GIG.

“Regarding the incident in Dong Tam, the press has reported it promptly. However, there is one thing that we, the state management agencies, and the people all see: we will learn many lessons from this, I emphasize both the people and the state agencies,” said Mr. Khanh.

According to Mr. Khanh, from the perspective of a state management agency for inspection, complaints and denunciations and citizen reception, the Government Inspectorate will certainly conduct careful research and summarize to draw lessons in its management process.

“The Chairman of Hanoi has clearly affirmed the comprehensive land inspection in Dong Tam commune. The comprehensive inspection will ensure objectivity and accuracy. This is under the authority of the Hanoi City Inspectorate, and the Government Inspectorate has not directly participated at this point. However, not only with this matter, but also with other matters, state management in inspection activities will certainly regularly monitor, update information, and work with Hanoi leaders to ensure that the inspection is carried out in accordance with legal regulations, accurately and thoroughly,” Mr. Khanh emphasized.

At the press conference, Mr. Khanh also informed that in the second quarter of 2017, the Government Inspectorate will conduct an inspection of the conversion of land use from defense and security land to other purposes in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Can Tho, Da Nang and Khanh Hoa.
