Deputy Minister Nguyen Van Long addresses the briefing conference.
Speaking at the conference on behalf of the Executive Committee of the Public Security CPV Organisation and the leadership of the Ministry of Public Security, Deputy Minister Nguyen Van Long recognized and hailed the achievements recorded by public security units and local police departments.
The Deputy Minister pointed out that Resolution No. 18 issued on July 28, 2026 by the CPV Central Committee on building an orderly, disciplined, safe, civilized, harmonious and developed society represents an urgent mandate set by the Party and State.
The People’s Public Security Forces play the core role in advising, implementing, and overseeing its execution. Therefore, fighting cybercrime is a foundational step toward putting Resolution No. 18 into practice, creating a truly disciplined, safe and civilized environment in cyberspace.
To carry out this task, Deputy Minister Nguyen Van Long requested under-ministerial units and provincial-level police departments to resolutely combat crimes and law violations in cyberspace, combining crime prevention with public communication.

They should coordinate with relevant ministries and sectors to study, amend, and supplement legal documents, as well as strictly manage online platforms and accounts of individuals and organizations to ensure a legal framework robust enough to handle and prevent violations.
The Deputy Minister emphasized the need to strongly innovate thinking and action regarding the fight against cybercrime and law violations, regarding it as the collective responsibility of the entire People’s Public Security Forces.
Under-ministerial units and provincial-level police departments should continue to enhance communication on criminal cases, incidents and illegal acts in cyberspace so that the public stays informed, understands, and supports these efforts, thereby contributing to a safe and civilized cyber environment.
