Party General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong said it is necessary to effectively perform the task of Party building, rectifying, and resolutely fighting the deterioration of political ideology, morality, and lifestyle.
During the first six months of 2022, anti-corruption authorities at all levels took disciplinary action against 295 Party members for corruption, 117 more than in the same period last year.
Participants at a recent national conference to review 10 years of combating corruption and negative phenomena in the 2012-2022 period expressed confidence in the Vietnam Communist Party's political determination and its persistence in fighting the ”enemy within”, in compliance with the orientations specified by the Party General Secretary.
Strict punishment serves as a deterrent to others, Party chief Nguyen Phu Trong has said.
