The suspension was requested by the Inspection Commission of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee, the Party’s top watchdog.

An investigation conducted by the Commission found that Bao had been dishonest about past working experience in his personal dossier and CV when he was nominated for a seat in the provincial Party Committee for the 2015-2020 period.

The Commission concluded that Bao had poor sense of discipline and violated the Party’s regulations for not taking part in any Party’s activities for many months during his time studying abroad.

The Commission also ordered the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board to instruct relevant agencies to abolish Bao’s Party membership and invalidate wrong appointment decisions related to Bao, and conduct criticism and mete out disciplinary measures on the Party Affairs Committee of Quang Nam People’s Committee and related units and individuals. 

Deputy Director of the Department of Planning and Investment Nguyen Hoang Thanh was appointed to temporarily take charge of the department until a decision is issued for Bao.-VNA
