Legal proceedings on May 15 started against three cases involving public disorder and intentional destruction of assets of businesses in Nhon Trach and Trang Bom districts and Bien Hoa city in Dong Nai province.
According to Ho Van Nam, head of the provincial People’s Procuracy, the proceedings were also taken for six people on charge of causing public disorder.
The provincial investigation agency has found that these offenders triggered social disorder at Tam Phuoc Industrial Park , Bien Hoa city, in the evening of May 13 and they admitted their violations.
During their investigation, the agency has also found some jobless people taking advantage of industry workers’ parades to protest China ’s illegal placement of a drilling rig in Vietnam ’s waters to incite the participants to destroy assets of businesses located in the locality.
At present, 224 people are being held in custody for further investigations.
Between May 13 and 15, 302 rabble rousers and asset destroyers were arrested.
Due to the disturbances, all Chinese- and Taiwanese-invested companies in the province halted their operations on May 14.
However, according to the provincial chapter of the Labour Federation, many of them resumed their activities on May 15 thanks to the authorities’ prompt publicity of Party and State policies on the territorial sovereignty protection to workers.
Chung Lien Shun, technical director of Taiwanese-invested Tuico Products JSC at the Ho Nai 3 Industrial Zone, expressed his backing for workers’ love for the country and its sea and islands.
However, he said he hopes that they will show their patriotism in a right manner and work together with the executive boards to protect their enterprises as well as their legitimate interests.
