On 26 July 2011, Dũng was officially re-elected prime minister by the 13th National Assembly, winning 470 out of 500 votes. He lost out to Truong Tan Sang in the competition to lead the party's Politburo, or executive committee.[8]
In October 2011, It was reported that political dissidents in Vietnam were "facing a growing crackdown on their activities ... [s]ince the Communist party congress in January, the authorities have steadily ratcheted up the pressure on dissidents.” Since 30 July, 15 religious activists had been imprisoned. One lawyer with deep family connections to the Communist party was sentenced to seven years' imprisonment "to the shock and outrage of large sections of the Vietnamese public.” A Human Rights Watch report also detailed forced labour and torture throughout the country's drug rehabilitation centres. Australian Vietnam expert Carlyle Thayer said
"Nguyen Tan Dung ... is decidedly not a reformer.” Although the U.S. and India are developing closer ties to Vietnam, neither “has seen fit to pressure Vietnam on its rights record with any conviction or consistency."[9]
In August 2012, the arrest of Nguyen Duc Kien, a local tycoon thought to be close to Dũng,[10] sparked discussions about Dung's ongoing political battle with President Truong Tan Sang.[11] Following these discussions, much of the anger about nepotism and poor economic management has been directed at Dung.[12]
At Central Committee meeting in October 2012, General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong, the head of the Communist Party announced Politburo agreed to propose the committee impose a form of discipline on it and consider discipline on a Politburo member (
is thought Nguyen Tan Dung), but the Central Committee decided to not take any discipline on the Politburo and one of its members - from the prime minister's mistakes in economic management issues, anti-corruption ...[13][14][15]Earlier the Central Committee decided to take the Central Steering Committee for Anti-Corruption away from Dũng's control, and the committee is now controlled by the Politburo and the general secretary is chief of committee.
Foreign relations
In 2009, Dũng made a two day visit to Russia where he signed a multi-billion dollar arms deal.[16]
In 2010, one deputy called for a no confidence motion against Dũng in response to a financial scandal at the Vinashin shipbuilding group.[17] At a party congress in January 2011, he was nominated for another term as prime minister.[citation needed]
On 12 April 2010, Dũng attended a luncheon with U.S. Vice President Biden and other world leaders at the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C.[18] On the same date he met Obama at the World Security Summit where he “spoke glowingly to American business leaders of Vietnam's economic growth — 7.2% per year over the last decade — and endorsed Obama's concerns about nuclear safety.”[19]
In April 2012, Dũng met with Japanese Deputy Prime Minister Okada Katsuya. He expressed his approval with the growing level of cooperation between Vietnam and Japan and they discussed moving forward. They talked about ways accelerate visitation and simplifying both entry procedures and exchange programs. Dũng stated that Vietnam wants to cooperate further and learn from Japan's experience in social insurance and continue to increase Japanese official development assistance.[20] Acts of Corruption : One of the most corruption politician in modern Vietnam
