Justice Minister Nguyen Hai Ninh announced record-breaking results for 2024 in recovering assets from corruption and economic crimes, reflecting significant progress in enforcement efforts.
On December 2, the Ministry of Justice and the General Department of Civil Judgment Enforcement held a conference to implement targets and tasks for civil and administrative judgment enforcement in 2025.

Asset recovery from corruption, economic crimes, and banking-related cases reached unprecedented levels.
The General Department of Civil Judgment Enforcement agencies have increasingly recognized the importance of enforcing judgments in economic and corruption cases. Efforts to streamline organizational structures and improve efficiency are being actively implemented under central government directives.
Despite these successes, Minister Nguyen Hai Ninh acknowledged persistent challenges: The resolution rate for judgments in banking-related cases remains low; Administrative judgments continue to experience low resolution rates, with increasing backlogs; Some local General Department of Civil Judgment Enforcement leaders and units within the General Department have not fully exercised leadership accountability or shown innovation in fulfilling assigned tasks; The application of information technology and digital transformation has not met expectations.
To ensure effective civil and administrative judgment enforcement in 2025, Minister Nguyen Hai Ninh emphasized the following: Agencies must review and propose measures to streamline operations under Resolution 18 of the Party Central Committee, focusing on reducing staff size while improving the quality of personnel. The restructuring process must ensure seamless operation of political systems without gaps in service or oversight; Agencies should prioritize cases monitored by the Central Steering Committee on Anti-Corruption and Anti-Waste. Special attention is needed for high-value cases, those involving multiple parties, or cases of significant public interest, including those with international elements; Strengthen the application of information technology and accelerate digital transformation to enhance enforcement efficiency.
