Hanoi (VNA) – 🌜Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh on December 26 urged the 80th national public security conference to outline major strategies, solutions, and policies to ensure security and order, while building a regular, elite, and modern force.
Addressing the conference in Hanoi, the Government leader commended contributions, sacrifices, and dedication of officers and soldiers, highlighting their readiness to take on any mission, anywhere, and under any circumstances.
He laid emphasis on a number of key tasks for the sector in the time ahead, requiring the public security force to follow the instructions of Party General Secretary To Lam that the force should change its mindset in safeguarding security and order while integrating these efforts with socio-economic development.
He underscored the need for close coordination between the public security force and ministries, agencies, and sectors, particularly the People’s Army, to optimise the collective strength of the political system and the population in ensuring security and order. The force should work harder to promote the “All people protect national security” movement, along with ensuring social security in remote, border, and island areas, he continued.
