Nguyen Ngoc Su, former chairman of the state-owned Shipbuilding Industry Corporation's board of members, was removed from the Vietnam Communist Party on Tuesday.

The Poliburo, the Party's premier decision-making body and the Party Central Committee's Secretariat, found that Su, also former Secretary of the company's (SBIC) Party Committee, violated the principle of democratic centralism, Party regulations, State laws, working regulations, and the Party members' code of conduct and responsibility to set an example.

His violations were deemed to have caused very serious consequences that will be difficult to remedy, causing frustration in society and adversely affecting the reputation of Party organizations and the SBIC's business.

Su was sentenced to 13 years in prison in 2019 for abusing his positions and power to appropriate property.

On December 21, the Central Inspection Committee had warned the standing board of the corporation's Party Committee in the 2010-2015 term and Vu Anh Tuan, secretary of the company's Party Committee and its board chairman, and reprimanded Cao Thanh Dong, general director.

Also on Tuesday, the Secretariat expelled Nguyen Thanh Tuan, secretary of the Party Committee of Thai Nguyen province's Department of Natural Resources and Environment and the department's director.

Nguyen Ngo Quyet, secretary of Phu Binh district's Party Committee and former director of Thai Nguyen's Department of Industry and Trade, was also removed from the Party.

Tuan and Quyet were found to have violated Party regulations and State laws while performing their duties; breached regulations on Party members' code of conduct and responsibility to set an example; and showed deteriorating political ideology, morality and lifestyle.

The above violations led to "very serious consequences, risks of great losses to the State, causing bad public opinion and anger in society and adversely affecting the reputation of Party organizations and state management agencies."
