The provincial inspectorate recommended that the provincial People's Committee transfer the files of two cases to the police investigation agency: one case regarding the inspection and examination of the hotel complex project, supermarket, pharmacy and medical business in Nghi Phu commune, Vinh city, invested by Minh Khang Company Limited; one case regarding the inspection of the Truong Son Residential Area project in Cua Nam ward, Vinh city, invested by Tien Luc Joint Stock Company.

On September 16, 2021, the Investigation Police Agency of the Provincial Police Department issued a decision to prosecute the accused for fraud and property appropriation against Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu - Director of Minh Khang Trading Co., Ltd. and Mr. Nguyen Dinh Khang - Head of the Management Board of Minh Khang Urban Area Project.

Through handling complaints, denunciations, recommendations and reflections, the authorities have discovered 3 cases with signs of violations and transferred the files to the police investigation agency. Of these, 2 cases involved officials of Nghi Tien commune (Nghi Loc) and 1 case involved some individuals of Do Thanh commune (Yen Thanh) in transferring agricultural land in violation of the law.

On January 13, 2021, the Investigation Police Agency of Nghe An Province prosecuted the corruption case of "Abusing position and power while performing official duties" occurring at the People's Committee of Nghi Tien Commune (Nghi Loc), prosecuting 3 defendants including: Luu Quang Thuong (born in 1954, former Chairman of the People's Committee of Nghi Tien Commune), Tran Cong Oanh (born in 1960, former Secretary, Chairman of the People's Committee of Nghi Tien Commune), Nguyen Van Hong (born in 1980, former cadastral officer of Nghi Tien Commune).

During the period, the investigation agencies at all levels in the province accepted to investigate 11 cases/47 defendants. The total number of cases handled by the People's Procuracy at 2 levels was 5 cases/24 defendants; the People's Court at all levels accepted to try 5 cases/25 defendants. Through the investigation, prosecution and trial of corruption cases, the damage of more than VND 5,026 billion (including 10,850 m2 of land worth VND 0.496 billion) was discovered; of which VND 4,362/VND 5,026 billion was recovered (reaching a rate of 86.8%).

The Provincial People's Committee assessed that the task of anti-corruption has always been focused on and implemented by the Provincial Party Committee, People's Council, Provincial People's Committee and all levels and sectors. Anti-corruption solutions are implemented synchronously, along with regular dissemination and education of laws on anti-corruption, contributing to raising awareness and responsibility of civil servants, public employees and workers.

The district People's Committee has also established inspection teams to inspect the implementation of discipline in their areas. The Tuong Duong District People's Committee discovered that a civil servant of Yen Tinh Commune, Tuong Duong District violated the code of conduct and professional ethics and was disciplined with a reprimand.

However, some groups of solutions to prevent corruption, although having achieved initial results, have not yet brought about effectiveness in anti-corruption work, such as: inspection and review of conflicts of interest; the implementation of Directive 10/TTg dated April 22, 2019 of the Prime Minister has been strengthened, however, no cases have been disciplined; the transfer of work positions is still confusing due to the lack of guidance documents from Central ministries and branches; the direction and guidance on anti-corruption work in enterprises, organizations, and non-state sectors have not received due attention.

The work of detecting corruption through internal monitoring and self-inspection has been strengthened, but no cases with signs of corruption have been detected and transferred to the investigation agency./.
