The 7th Central Public Security Party Congress (2020-2025) is a successful term, marking many milestones in the 8-year history of the birth, fighting, growth and development of the People's Public Security Force. After 5 years, the world and regional situation has many rapid, widespread, and complex developments, with problems exceeding forecasts, unprecedented. In the country, many difficulties and challenges from natural disasters, epidemics to supply chain disruptions, international trade competition, tax policies... have significantly affected socio-economic development. However, with strong will, under the wise and correct leadership of the Central Executive Committee and the Politburo, and the consensus of the people, we focus on accelerating and making breakthroughs, continuing to resolutely and decisively carry out the renovation process, typically the revolution in streamlining the apparatus of the political system; implementing the two-level local government model, restructuring the space for socio-economic development. As a result, we have basically resolved difficulties and obstacles to complete and exceed the targets and goals set by the 13th National Party Congress, including the important and remarkable contribution of the People's Public Security Force.

The Central Public Security Party Committee and the entire People's Public Security force have been exemplary and taken the lead in implementing the Resolution of the 13th National Party Congress. In particular, the Central Public Security Party Committee is considered the "first flag" in implementing Resolution 18 of the Politburo on "continuing to innovate and reorganize the apparatus of the political system to be streamlined, effective and efficient". The function of strategic consultation with the Party and State on political security and social order and safety has been increased a step. The country's security, territorial sovereignty and political position are firmly protected, creating positive changes in social order and safety, creating a turning point in governance, security management, creating a peaceful, secure, safe and stable environment and space for people across the country. The Public Security Party Committee has led the basic completion of the goal of building a People's Public Security force "really clean, strong, disciplined, elite, modern, meeting the requirements and tasks in the new situation" set forth in Resolution No. 12, dated March 16, 2022 of the Politburo. Digital transformation, overcoming the consequences of natural disasters, eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses are also bright spots that the People's Public Security force achieved during the 7th Central Public Security Party Congress. The above results are not only a vivid testament to the People's Public Security's absolute loyalty to the Party, the Fatherland, and the People, but also provide practical information, create foundation, motivation, and inspire the entire political system to implement.
