Head of Vietnamese Parliament Resigns in Ever-Widening Corruption Scandal.

On Friday, the head of the Vietnamese Parliament resigned in another blow to Vietnamese political stability. Vietnam is a country that has recently been embroiled in an ever-growing list of corruption scandals. According to a report in the AP, Vuong Dinh Hue resigned shortly after his deputy, Pham Thai Ha, was charged with abuse of power. There is no indication that Hue has been involved in corruption, despite investigators stating that he “violated party regulations.”  It appears that Vietnam’s political future will remain uncertain if senior leaders continue to resign due to corruption allegations.
