The leader of Hau Giang Provincial Party Committee said that it is not yet possible to confirm the exact information that Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh has gone abroad.

However, up to this point, Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh has not returned to Hau Giang province and there has been no response to the summons. Hau Giang Provincial Party Committee has been unable to contact Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh.
Speaking with the Vietnam News Agency reporter stationed in the Mekong Delta region, Mr. Tran Cong Chanh, Secretary of the Hau Giang Provincial Party Committee, said that if Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh is not present in the province as requested, the Hau Giang Provincial Party Committee will send a written report on this to the central agencies.
Recently, Hau Giang Provincial Party Committee sent officials to Hanoi to visit Trinh Xuan Thanh’s home when they heard that he was sick. At that time, these officials were unable to meet Trinh Xuan Thanh.
In response to public information that Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh has gone abroad, the leader of Hau Giang Provincial Party Committee said that this information could not be accurately confirmed.
On July 18, Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh sent a request to the Hau Giang Provincial Party Committee for leave due to severe gout. The leave period was from July 25 to July 29. Then, on August 19, he sent a second request for leave and medical treatment for 1 month, from August 3 to September 2 abroad.
Considering that it is not appropriate to request to go abroad at this time, Hau Giang Provincial Party Committee did not agree with Trinh Xuan Thanh's second request. The province's viewpoint is: "Absolutely do not send or allow to go abroad for any reason for Party members who are under Party disciplinary review, are being investigated for violations of the law, violations of Party membership, or have current political issues but have not yet been concluded by competent authorities."
It is expected that on September 16, the Central Inspection Commission will work with the Standing Committee of Hau Giang Provincial Party Committee to implement the Secretariat's Decision on expelling Mr. Trinh Xuan Thanh from the Party./.
