HANOI, Nov. 22 (Xinhua) -- The National Assembly (NA) of Vietnam, the country's top legislature, on Friday passed resolutions on personnel work with high approval ratio, Vietnam News Agency reported.

Specifically, 94 percent of the voted deputies agreed to relieve Nguyen Khac Dinh of his position as a member of the NA Standing Committee and chairman of the NA Law Committee. Meanwhile, the resolution to dismiss Vietnamese Minister of Health Nguyen Thi Kim Tien was passed with 87 percent approval.
