“It is necessary to impose criminal responsibility”
In answering in court, the defendant said that he only used a phone number and that Mr. Thang did not introduce himself to Duong Tuan Minh (former CEO of Cuu Long Company), before meeting with Minh he did not call. In late 2013, the defendant met with Minh through news on VTV1 and learned that Cuu Long Company was selling the rights to collect fees.
Speaking in court, Mr. Thang said that he respected the VKS, but the content of the accusation was deductive, unfounded, not objective. “I do not use any influence, no criticism to influence the system that participates in the project” – said the accused.
Defendant Thang claimed that all criticisms and documents signed by the defendant were in accordance with the law and the correct authority at the time, according to advisory agencies. “Approving the criticism is very clear, anyone in the position of minister can only sign like this” – said the accused.
Regarding the main responsibility in the case, Mr. Thang said that before the Party, the Government would take responsibility. Responsible boss, administrative responsibility, the prosecution of criminal responsibility is unfounded.
“My criminal responsibility is too imposing, shoot, not objectively,” Thang said. Since then, the defendant completely denied the lead role in this case. Mr. Thang also opined that it is solely the responsibility of the director, who directly implements that person himself.

Who lost 725 billion VND?
The problem that arises in the case is that the amount of 725 billion VND is lost, who damages and compensates how.
Mr. Thang said that after the fare collection contract came into effect, the revenue from the toll collection activities belonged to the Yen Khanh Company in accordance with the law. If the business violates the law, the Ministry of Transportation will request the authorized unit to sign a contract with the business. Once again, the accused reiterated that everything was assigned by the deputy minister in charge of that area.
“The Ministry of Transportation exercises state management of the project. Business money, how can the Ministry of Transport intervene?
His lawyer asked the representative of the Ministry of Finance whether to determine the high or low amount of the sale of the rights to collect fees of 2,004 billion. The representative said that the ministry had written regulations on the targets and these documents were sent to the Ministry of Transportation. And the Ministry of Finance has no authority to judge whether the assessed amount is high or low. After the case happened, the investigating agency had no exchange and the ministry did not have any documents to confirm whether such an assessment was high or low.
In addition, the representative of the Ministry of Transportation also replied that for this project, the contract was signed for five years and the Ministry of Transportation had collected more than 2,004 billion VND under the contract.
The lawyer asked many questions in this case, did the Ministry of Transport damage, how much, how to claim, who compensated …
Representative of the Ministry of Transport said that to determine whether there is a loss or not, the Ministry of Transport has no role to determine and will respect the court’s decision.
On the part of Yen Khanh Company, defendant Pham Van Diet (who was assigned by the System to operate the company) stated under the contract, Yen Khanh Company was entitled to collect the fee for five years and closed it to Cuu Long Company with 2,004 billion VND. Profit and loss are borne by Yen Khanh Company.

The reason why Ut’s company is “bald” is in favor The defendant Duong Thi Tram Anh (former deputy CEO of Cuu Long Company) said that the previous project was assigned to the investment department to administer the tender and meet the bidders. There are four entities that find out but do not bid because the starting price is too high. After that, Yen Khanh Company (Ut’s “bald head”) won the auction for 2,004 billion dong. The record shows that the defendant Tram Anh knows that the system has a close relationship with many leaders, so the permanent assistant team has favored the Yen Khanh Company by not organizing the auction, by not following the correct process due to time. Time is too urgent to convene five agencies at the same time. |
