Upholding their spirit of “Ready to sacrifice themselves for the Fatherland and wholeheartedly serve the people,” the officers of Working Group No. 7 braved dangers, rushing to the scene to take urgent action to put up the fire and rescue people, and their property.

Thanks to the good coordination between the police and local people, 11 people were rescued, three motorbikes and one car were moved out of the fire area, minimizing the damage of the two affected families’ property.

The timely assistance of Working Group No. 7 of the Dien Chau Traffic Police Station was highly appreciated by the local authorities at all levels, local residents, and the two affected families.

The achievement has further beautified the image of the Public Security Forces and served as a role model in implementing the emulation movement of the Public Security Forces “Three Best: Most Disciplined – Most Loyal – Closest to the People.”
