On January 10, the Politburo decided to issue an official warning to Duong Van An, a member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Vinh Phuc Provincial Party Committee, for violations during his tenure as Secretary of the Binh Thuan Provincial Party Committee.

Violations and consequences
