To restore the trust
28/9/15
All
organizations and economic experts have acknowledged the existence of state enterprises
(SOEs) and monopoly in some sectors of service and goods.
However,
the state that people less believe in transparency in the operation of some
monopolies in Vietnam is real, most notably in the fields of electricity and
gasoline. It has not yet said anything about the enormous problem, monitering
electric using transparently to make people trust is not good. Even power consumers
implicitly think whenever electricity bills higher than the previous month due
to incorrectly record and miscalculation. Although electric company can
explain, it is full of doubt, no matter how much electricity simply believed or
not.
There
have been many cases of false records to increase number so this must be taken
and monitored seriously. Competition Administration Department and Vietnam
Electricity (EVN) are necessary to protect the interests of people and their
honor. Without clarification, people continue doubt the transparency of EVN so
there is no major benefit for EVN.
To
minimize errors and restore confidence for people, it should establish
independent monitoring body from things like recording number to operation of
the EVN. Thereby eliminating the situation that MOIT both manager and owner.
Because of the fact people are right to suspect the "fairness" of the
Ministry of Industry and Trade. MOIT does both state management and duty
performance for the benefit of people but we can not know how much for the
consumer protection and law enforcement, how much for protecting their benefit (EVN)?
Therefore, there is an independent monitoring body would both protect consumers
and protect themselves to ensure transparency so that people trust.
More
generally, all of goods and services must have an independent supervisory
authority as advanced countries have done and they have to give convincing results. Accordingly, the agency
only acts according to the law, only subject to the supervision of Parliament
and it is not attached to the other unit. If so, not only EVN and SOEs are whitewashed
but also MOIT and other ministries will benefit. And above all, the trust of
the people are rebuilt.
