Investigation units were asked to shorten investigation time of cases, particularly the major economic and corruption cases, and report regularly the progresses of the investigation to the Central Steering Committee on Anti-corruption.

Minister To Lam also asked the press and media of the Public Security Forces to coordinate with other press agencies to promote information and education on prevention and fight against crimes, and the national security protection movement while improving the quality of programs, articles and reports on the fight against “peaceful evolution”, “self-evolution”, “self-transformation”, as well as the fight against distorted information, wrong views and sabotage schemes of hostile, reactionary forces.
