The Deputy Minister also proposed to do a good job of prevention to limit the work of struggle, thereby limiting victims, victims, and limiting crime; which means that many people are not entangled in legal trouble, many families are happy, many children live in peaceful families with both parents, and many teenagers are not dragged into the path of crime...
This is not only a legal aspect but also has humanistic and humanitarian meaning, which is what we need to aim for" - the Deputy Minister emphasized.
Professional forces must be attached, closely coordinate, use results, and promote each other's strengths in crime prevention and combat.
Continue to shift from the mindset of "Responsibility for public duties - service - development creation", thoroughly grasp the principle that "all work orders have been issued, all assigned tasks and targets must be implemented drastically, absolutely not backwards, not late, and monitor and evaluate the implementation seriously"; closely follow the Resolution and direction of the Central Public Security Party Committee and leaders of the Ministry.
Localities must uphold the spirit of responsibility, focus on solving crimes related to food safety, counterfeit goods in cyberspace; street food, children's toys of unknown origin at people's markets and school gates... Advise the People's Committees of provinces and communes to strictly manage suppliers of industrial meals and school meals" - Deputy Minister Nguyen Van Long proposed.
In addition, the Commune Police must do a good job of grasping the situation in the area, resolving cases right from the grassroots level. Strictly manage professional subjects; review and strictly manage drug addicts, illegal drug users, drug detoxification, and drug detoxification after detoxification; regularly call, question, deter, educate, and strictly manage subjects.
