He said what draws voters’ attention is the recovery of assets in corruption cases.
“The people hope that at this session, the NA will complete regulations and laws on recovering assets in corruption cases, because the assets actually belong to the people, and the recovery of them will have big deterrent effects,” Quang said.
He noted that despite the discovery and trial of many corruption cases, the lost assets have not been reclaimed.
