The Vietnam Rubber Group, which was recently accused of land grabbing in Laos and Cambodia by Global Witness, has a new chairman.
Vietnam Rubber Group’s leaders One June 24, the Prime Minister assigned Vo Sy Luc to become Vietnam Rubber Group’s new chairman after the seat was left empty from January 2012.
Luc will officially replace Le Quang Trung who retired last year. The leadership was temporarily taken by the group’s CEO Tran Ngoc Thuan.
In 2008, the chairman Tran Kien Quyet was dismissed for “violating regulations on land management while he was still director of the group’s member company, Tan Bien Rubber Company.”
Ho Xuan Hung, Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development took the reins until March 2010 and passed the position on to Le Quang Trung.
The group was recently accused of land grabbing and destroying forest with Hoang Anh Gia Lai Group by Global Witness. The group only made one statement to oppose the accusations a month later.
