Mr. Hoang Kim Dung, a civil servant of the Commander of the Military Command of Hung Yen Nam Commune, Hung Nguyen District, Nghe An Province, was forced to quit his job for the act of "using an illegal degree to be recruited as a commune-level civil servant".
However, exactly 2 months later, the People's Committee of Hung Yen Nam commune submitted a document to the District People's Committee, proposing to replace the commune forestry officer, in which Mr. Hoang Kim Dung was nominated to take on this position.
After that, Hung Nguyen Forest Protection Department issued a Decision to recognize Mr. Hoang Kim Dung as a forestry officer of Hung Yen Nam commune, receiving an allowance of 0.5 of the basic salary from the state budget.
This is an event that seems impossible in reality but is present, raising questions about the integrity in the public service apparatus and the responsibility of cadre management agencies at the grassroots level.
Using a fake degree to enter the public authority apparatus is an act of intentional fraud.This is not only a violation of the law on civil servant recruitment, but also violates public trust in fairness and transparency in the system.
Therefore, the form of handling Mr. Hoang Kim Dung's forced dismissal is reasonable, in accordance with regulations and needs to be made public and set an example, so there is nothing to discuss further.
In the context of the whole country's strong implementation of the work of building a clean and strong Party and political system, improving the quality of commune-level civil servants, Hung Nguyen commune giving a civil servant who was fired for using a fake degree is "reviving" is contrary to the spirit of discipline and order that is being promoted by the Party and the State.
The problem lies not only in the violator, but also in the profiteering, even disregarding the standards of integrity in the grassroots government apparatus.
When a person who has committed a serious violation and is subject to the highest disciplinary action can still return to the apparatus with just one submission and administrative decision, there is clearly a big loophole in the mechanism for appraisal and supervision of cadres.
Public opinion is completely reasonable when it is required to clarify the responsibility of the People's Committee of Hung Yen Nam commune, where the violator was nominated, as well as the Forest Protection Department and the unit that issued the recognition decision.
If we do not handle cases like this seriously, transparently and fairly, all statements about improving the quality of cadres, building an honest civil service, and serving the people will only be a slogan.
An effective administrative apparatus cannot accept those who have been deceived, regardless of their position.
People do not require a perfect apparatus, but they have the right to demand the minimum integrity of those who receive budget salaries.
