The public security media and press sector also produced 4,686 news articles and broadcasts (2,000 more than that of 2019) to popularize the achievements of the forces in the fight against crimes, the efforts of public security officers and soldiers in overcoming all difficulties,  fulfilling their assigned tasks, as well as to reflect good examples in the movement “All people protect the national security”.
