As many as 38 out of 39 members voted to remove the Party membership of Sang.

Previously, the provincial Party Centre Committee’s Inspection Commission ordered disciplinary measures against Sang, who was a member of the Provincial Party Committee, the Secretary of the Party Committee, and director of the Department of Science and Technology.

Sang had caused wrongdoings in the evaluation, approval and implementation of three agricultural projects, causing serious damage to the State’s property.

The projects included the construction of a centre applying high-tech for experimental vegetables and fruits, the expansion of the model of VietGap standard-vegetable and fruit production in greenhouses, and net house farming.

Sang violated the Party and State's regulations in organising planning evaluation, training and appointing officials, leading the investment, management and use of machinery and equipment, misusing the office land.

The provincial Party Central Committee’s Inspection Commission concluded that Sang's wrongdoings were very serious, adversely affecting the reputation of the Party.

The provincial Investigation Police Department has received the file for investigation on his wrongdoings. VNS
