The Vietnamese government has implemented several administrative and political updates regarding the leadership and structure of mass organizations. Initially, the Politburo issued decisions to rename the Party Committee of the Fatherland Front and central mass organizations to the Party Committee of Mass Mobilization, the Fatherland Front, and Central Mass Organizations. This body operates under the direct leadership of the Central Committee, Politburo, and Secretariat. Following these changes, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Vietnam issued Decision No. 659-QD/TW. This decision established new regulations for the functions, duties, and organizational structure of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) and various socio-political organizations. Signed by Secretariat standing member Tran Cam Tu, the regulations aim to clarify authority and prevent overlapping duties. The new structure includes several advisory departments, such as the Organization and Inspection Board and the Propaganda Board, alongside professional units like the Institute for Training and Cadre Development. In a separate disciplinary action, Deputy Prime Minister Pham Gia Tuc signed Decision 2110/QD-TTg to dismiss Tran Van Thuan from his positions as Deputy Minister of Health and Chairman of the National Medical Council. This administrative dismissal followed a Secretariat decision to expel Thuan from the Communist Party. The Secretariat cited political and moral degradation, violations of Party regulations and State laws, and failures regarding anti-corruption and waste prevention. Thuan was also detained by the Ministry of Public Security on charges of receiving bribes related to a case involving the Vietnam Medical Investment Joint Stock Company.
