Hanoi (VNA) – President Tran Dai Quang has urged the People’s Security Academy (PSA) to outstandingly perform its forecasting and strategic consulting role for the Ministry of Public Security in order to help the Party and State issue sound guidelines and policies on security, safety, s𒁏ocio-economic development and foreign affairs.
Speaking at a ceremony marking the academy’s 70th anniversary (June 25, 1946) in Hanoi on June 24, the State leader cited multiple threats to national sovereignty, interest and security in the context of unexpected developments in the region and the world at large.
Against the background, the academy was requested to take a more active part in protecting the Party’s ideology, guidelines and policies, and enhancing public trust in the Party, State, people’s police force as well as the reform process Vietnam is pursuing.
The President asked the PSA to double its efforts to become a high-quality and prestigious training scientific research centre at home, gearing towards higher prestige in the region and the world.
Along with revamping its teaching and learning methods, the school should step up international cooperation with well-known universities and national security research centres of other ASEAN members and developing countries worldwide, he said.
Another important task is to increase the training of officers for Laos’s Ministry of Public Security and Cambodia’s Ministry of Home Affairs, contributing to bolstering the traditional relationships between Vietnam and the two neighbouring countries, the leader noted.
Besides, it is a need for the academy to work well in Party building and seriously effectuate policies and guidelines of the Party and State regarding education and training, President Tran Dai Quang added.
Reviewing the PSA’s 70-year history, the leader hailed the school for its contributions to safeguarding national security and its coordination in training tens of thousands of Lao and Cambodian security officers.

Reality is the ultimate benchmark for success, he said, urging drafting agencies to work out policies that foster development, reduce bureaucratic hurdles, and respect practical conditions.
Under the official dispatch signed on June 20, ministers, heads of ministerial-level agencies, and chairpersons of provincial and municipal People’s Committees are requested to concentrate efforts on implementing core measures to ensure the smooth operations of the new administrative framework.
The Party chief underscored the need for the press to innovate relentlessly, evolve to keep pace with the country's development, transform into a truly professional, humanistic, and modern sector that serves the cause of the Party, the State, and the people on the path to national construction and development.
The UN Secretary-General praised Vietnam’s remarkable achievements in socio-economic development and international integration in recent years, noting that the country has emerged as a model in implementing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), promoting international peace and security, and engaging in key UN processes.

Vietnam is ready to work with the Chinese Party and State to further deepen the Comprehensive Strategic Cooperative Partnership and promote the building of the Vietnam-China community with a shared future that carries strategic significance.
Under the leadership of President Ho Chi Minh and the CPV, President Cuong said, the press has been a steadfast force on the ideological and cultural front, rallying the masses to pursue national aspirations.
NA Chairman Tran Thanh Man stressed the need to accelerate the application of artificial intelligence and smart teaching equipment, innovate teaching and assessment methods, and further improve the quality of formal education.
He also pledged that the NA will promote its ongoing supervision, making sure that every promise must lead to results, and every commitment must bring about real changes.
Minister of Industry and Trade Nguyen Hong Dien welcomed the proposals put forward by the US side and reiterated Vietnam’s request for consideration of key areas of interest, including reciprocal tariff policies and access for Vietnamese key export products to the US market.
Deputy PM Le Thanh Long proposed countries promote shared values, including building trust, sincerity, and solidarity among nations and peoples; fostering cooperation spirit and responsible behaviour as well as upholding international law and the UN Charter; and placing people at the centre and as the goal, the key player, and the driving force of all policies.
The show, together with a grand parade to be held silmutaneously at Ba Dinh Square in Hanoi, will celebrate the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution, the National Day, and the General Staff of the Vietnam People’s Army (VPA).
In particular, in April 2023, the two sides successfully carried out a joint operation that dismantled a major organised, transnational drug trafficking ring involving both Vietnamese and Cambodian suspects.
The Vietnamese Embassy in Israel is closely coordinating with relevant local agencies to stay informed and provide the utmost support possible for Vietnamese nationals.
The launch of Thanh Nien (Young People) newspaper in 1925, even before the founding of the Communist Party of Vietnam, is considered a testament to President Ho Chi Minh’s strategic foresight and strong belief in the guiding power of the revolutionary media.
