  We calculate direct CP-violating observables in charged $B\to VV$ decays
arising from the interference of amplitudes with different strong and CKM
phases. The perturbative strong phases develop at order $\alpha_s$ from
absorptive parts of one-loop matrix elements of the next-to-leading logarithm
corrected effective Hamiltonian. CPT constraints are maintained. Based on this
model, we find that partial rate asymmetries between charge conjugate $B^{\pm}$
decays can be as high as 15-30\% for certain channels with branching ratios in
the $10^{-6}$ range. The small values of the coefficients of angular
correlations, which we calculated previously to be of order $10^{-2}$, are not
significantly degraded by the strong phases. The charge asymmetries of rates
and angular distributions would provide unambiguous evidence for direct CP
violation.
