Hanoi (VNA) – The Party Central Committee’s Secretariat on April 5 decided to issue a warning as a disciplinary measure against the Standing Board of the Party Committee of the Vietnam Military Medical University in the 2015 - 2020 and 2020 - 2025 tenures for their wrongdoings related to the development of a COVID-19 test kit and the procurement of medical supplies and other test kits.

In addition, Lieut. Gen. Do Quyet, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Director of the university, and Maj. Gen. Hoang Van Luong, member of the board and Deputy Director of the university, were removed from all Party positions in the 2015-2020 and 2020-2025 terms.

After considering the proposal on the discipline by the Party Central Committee’s Inspection Commission, the Secretariat agreed that the Standing Board of the university’s Party Committee in those tenures had violated the principle of democratic centralism and working regulations, loosened leadership, and lacked sense of responsibility as well as examination and supervision, thus letting many Party cadres and members, including key leaders of the university, violate the Party’s rules, the State’s laws, along with regulations of the Ministry of National Defence during the proposal and implementation of a national-level scientific and technological task of developing a COVID-19 test kit and during the procurement of medical supplies and test kits.

Meanwhile, Quyet and Luong have to take the responsibility for the Standing Board’s wrongdoings, with the former bearing the main one.

According to the Secretariat, these violations and wrongdoings have caused serious consequences, leading to a huge loss to the State budget and affecting the nation’s pandemic prevention and control efforts./.
