The coordination regulation on ensuring security and order between the MPS and the Vietnamese Association of Former People’s Public Security Officers holds great significance in political, social and professional terms as it helps promote the tradition and spirit of sacrificing for the Fatherland and serving the people across generations of the Public Security Forces.

In his remarks, Deputy Minister Nguyen Van Long emphasized that members of the Association serve as an “extended arm” supporting the Public Security Forces in ensuring security and order, saying that the coordination regulation enables retired public security officers at the local level to actively contribute to safeguarding security and promoting the “All People Protecting National Security” movement at the grassroots level.
