Mr. Khang was born in 1980, the son of Mr. Pham Van To and his first wife (Ms. VTH, born in 1957, residing in Thanh Mien district). Mr. Pham Van To and Ms. VTH divorced many years ago. After that, Mr. To took a second wife and had 2 more children.

Appointment to transfer work for convenience in taking care of children

Regarding the fact that the Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs of Hai Duong province has 46 civil servants, of which 44 are leaders from deputy department level and above, the Inspectorate of the Ministry of Home Affairs has inspected and concluded.

The conclusion stated: There were 2 civil servants appointed to the position of deputy head of department when they did not fully meet the standards of the administrative civil servant category. Some cases had not been evaluated and commented on the results of performing tasks and the ability to gather, but were added to the planning and appointed as deputy head of department. Some appointment procedures were not shown in writing in the appointment records.

As of October 15, 2016, the Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs of Hai Duong had 9 departments with 31 deputy heads, of which 6 specialized departments had 8 more deputy heads than the number proposed in the Project to determine job positions submitted by the department to the Provincial People's Committee.

During the inspection, the Director of the Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs of Hai Duong decided to remove 7 civil servants from their positions as deputy heads of departments (according to the civil servants' voluntary resignation) and transfer one deputy head of departments to another job.

Explaining the decision to appoint his biological son against procedures, Director of Hai Duong Department of Home Affairs Pham Van To said: "The mistake was reported by my subordinates so I did not consider it carefully.

Second, Mr. Khang's (Mr. To's son) wish to transfer his job to Hai Duong City is to conveniently take care of his child who has just passed the entrance exam to a specialized school in the city.

When the Ministry of Home Affairs Inspectorate inspected the incident, Mr. Khang voluntarily submitted a resignation letter and asked to return to work at his old unit.

Mr. To personally accepted responsibility: "I have asked to accept the disciplinary action before the leaders of Hai Duong province."

Mr. To admitted that his son's appointment had many mistakes, including not following procedures such as not having a written request for the Ministry of Home Affairs' opinion on recruiting civil servants without an examination, not establishing an examination council, appointing civil servants without enough working time...
