Preventing corruption of State power
29/7/14
Giving speech of conclusion at
national conference on the prevention and fight against corruption held recently,
the General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong has highlighted the very clear message
on the issue of corruption and the political assertion of the Party in fightng
against corruption. We must determine to fight fiercely against corruption because
it is high risk leading to “self-evolution”, “self-transformation”. When officers
and Party members embezzle, it means that they themselves succumb to moral
qualities as party members away from the party’s ideal…
We have discussed a lot and
there are many measures, many Law against corruption but the achieved results
of this work are not as expected even more severe manifestations, corruption
becomes more “sophisticated”. Up to this time, the detection of corruption is
still weak points. The handling of corrupted behavior in some cases still be a
slight shifting. The urgent situation requires the Party, State and people more
resolutely against corruption with the first “internal enemy invasion”.
Corruption is always man-made.
They are the staff of authority in the state apparatus of power to bleed. It is
“alienation of state power”.
Strict handling is without
“forbidden zone” or “exception”, we must resolutely build a mechanism to
prevent corruption, a mechanism to punish and ensure that corruption is not
necessary. the Secretary General also emphasized:" It is important to
raise up opinion in public to severely criticize for acts of corruption, to
educate ashamed spirit, suffering from corruption.
The message was clear that the
relationship between mechanisms and humans, and as such with staff need to be
incorporated and well solved in the process of corruption preventing; to
perfect mechanism must be associated with the development and promotion of the
role of staff.
More than ever, the spirit of
our party and virtue of “public servants” as well as the integrity of an
official or party member must be enhanced. Although we have tried to build and
perfect the mechanism of prevention of corruption as General Secretary said, the
operation of this mechanism will not be effective if our officials do not
appreciate shame.
We can not fight against
corruption effectively if we do not have the staff who really “live inside
masses” and trusted by people. They are true “public servants.
The fighting against
corruption has not achieve the desired result yet because of an important cause
of staff. Therefore, the most important issue is playing a good performance for
personnel; clearly specifying responsibilities of the executive committee and
head of the mistakes, negligence, violation of principles of personnel
management which makes corruption developped.
Fighting against corruption is
the struggle within each agency, organization or unit; struggle within himself of
every human being. Officials, Party members, especially those who heads
agencies, organizations, units must be at the forefront of the fight against
corruption. In that spirit, officials and party members must be actual
“integrity”, “strictly follow the code of conduct and standards of business
ethics”. Nobody can lay the blame at circumstances and reasons to “accidentally”
or “intentionally” corrupt. We also can not only preach and ask everyone to
abide by and comply with while we ourselves are outsiders even let people in
family abuse to do illegal enrichment.
In order to build clean and
strong cadres, party members, we should have “specific criteria and requirements”
of the “shame and honor” model for cadres, Party members about all areas. Moreover,
it needs to promote ownership of the people and organizations in monitoring officials,
party members according to criteria, taking periodic comments about people's
status, members of an ethical ways.

some critics say the anti-corruption purge has more to do with an internal power struggle.
The prime minister is part of the “rent-seekers” faction - a group that uses their position to enrich themselves without benefiting society. Opposed to them is the “anti-corruption” faction under Trong, who is leading the crackdown.
I believe that at the very top of the Vietnam Communist Party there are people who are relatively untainted by corruption, there are also people who are deeply, deeply involved in corruption.
The anti-corruption campaign has already prosecuted several high-profile officials and businessmen who are closely linked with the prime minister.
What the Vietnamese citizens want to have is a public administration that is free from corruption, that is free from abuse, that is free from a lack of respect,
In order to do that there has to be some work in addressing the incentives, for the public officials to address publicly and transparently what are those incentives, what are those rents they receive from the public sector and then put the house in order.
The revised Constitution this time is the result of a painstaking, serious, scientific and truly democratic process.
One of them is the state power is unified and delegated to state agencies which coordinate with and control one another in the exercise of the legislative, executive and judicial powers.
In order to wipe out corruption, it is essential to set up a mechanism in which corrupt acts are made impossible to commit, no one dares to attempt them, and there is no need for them, said the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam.
The fight against corruption is only effective once it is conducted firstly in the agencies in charge of anti-corruption.
