Japan told the Vietnamese government Monday it will temporarily suspend official development assistance due to an alleged bribery case involving a Japanese-funded Hanoi urban railway project, the Japanese embassy here said.
The Japanese government notified Hanoi of the suspension at a bilateral meeting to prevent irregularities, the embassy said, after six Vietnamese railway officials were detained in May over a contract awarded to Tokyo-based Japan Transportation Consultants Inc.

As conditions for resuming ODA, Tokyo required that Hanoi probe whether there was anything illicit regarding contracts involving state-owned Vietnam Railways Corp. or JTC, and to draw up measures to prevent a recurrence, the embassy said.

At the next meeting late this month, the Japanese side will consider whether to resume ODA after studying the outcome of Vietnam's investigation and preventive measures, the embassy said.

At Monday's meeting, Japanese officials notified their Vietnamese counterparts that Tokyo will suspend loans for the first phase of building railway line No. 1 of the urban railway project, the embassy said.

JTC said in April that an independent panel found that it paid 160 million yen in kickbacks to officials involved in projects in Vietnam, Indonesia, Uzbekistan between 2009 and 2014. Its payments to secure an ODA-funded project order in Vietnam were estimated at 66 million yen.

Vietnamese authorities are investigating the matter after detaining six railway officials, including Tran Quoc Dong, a deputy general director of Vietnam Railways.

Man Abe is not taking it right. He needs to focus in developing ties with Hanoi ASAP no matter what to gain strategic depth.

Those first world issues can be sorted out later.

Abe will ensure development with Vietnam; and aid to Vietnam is guaranteed. Abe requires transparency in regards to government projects , including international aid.

I think so. Bribery happens everywhere; China is no exception. And "temporarily" does not mean "permanently". When transparency is improved, aids will be available again. A small country like Vietnam would need aids from developed countries for development.

I bet after destroying their own economy they now look at Japan for financial aid. It turns out Japanese prefer to see Vietcongs starving :D , so much for their brotherhood.
Nah, I saw nothing like you said but your people got slaughter like pathetic dumb pigs and "fireworks" explode some many more ... all done by Chinese , so much for your "brotherhood" ... :D

LOL after the Japanese slaughtered two million Viets in 1945 with starvation and pillaging now they refuse to pay more reparations. Perfect timing as China is bullying Vietnam too.
