Vietnam banker sentenced to death for fraud


Vietnam is rated one of the world's most corrupt nations and graft is a top concern for many ordinary people.  The communist government has vowed to clamp down on the issue. 
"There will be strict punishment for state cadres and officials who received bribes," warned the deputy prime minister, Nguyen Xuan Phuc, at an anti-corruption dialogue held in Hanoi on Tuesday, according to the government's website.
Vietnam resumed executions by lethal injection earlier this year, drawing criticism from the UN's human rights office.
