Reason: there is a resignation letter due to family circumstances". Previously, on July 26, Mr. Tho applied for leave by himself.

Mr. Tran Le Huu Tho (47 years old) is the person handling the case in the clip "Bread is not an essential food", causing a stir in public opinion at the end of July 2021. After the incident was reflected by netizens and the press, the People's Committee of Vinh Hoa Ward organized a review to clarify the incident.

Mr. Nguyen Phuong Lam - Director of the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) VN Branch of Can Tho City said: "Because it is always in the mindset of sanctioning and sanctioning, we must find a way to reason and distinguish which items are essential. , which dishes are not. While, in the midst of an epidemic like this, it is difficult to define according to the criteria as in the normal state."

According to Mr. Lam, for a hungry person, food is the most basic and essential, but in the distance, everything becomes equally important! Is it essential for a man to bring a fan to repair because it is too hot at home? Or a person who has a broken light bulb and a broken faucet, does it need to be replaced? Is there a document that covers all such situations?

Many leaders of wards and communes who are implementing Directive 16 said: "There are groups of people who are allowed to travel during the period of separation with proofs according to regulations. As for people going to the street to buy a loaf of bread. noodles or boiled corn ... are causing headaches for the authorities".
