On February 21, 1946, President Ho Chi Minh signed Decree No 23/SL on unifying public security units nationwide to “Viet Nam Cong An Vu” (Public Security Department of Vietnam) and assigning tasks to the new force, particularly intelligence gathering.

Over the past 75 years, the people’s public security intelligence force has achieved a lot of excellent achievements, deserving its status as one of the key and trustworthy armed forces of the Party, State, and people.

According to PM Phuc, leaders of the force should promote political and ideological education, educate the heroic traditions of the Public Security Forces and revolutionary morality, and improve professional skills for intelligence officers. They should build a contingent of intelligence officers with firm political stance, steadfastness and absolute loyalty to the Party, Fatherland, and people. Public security intelligence officers should always be ready to sacrifice their lives for the Party and nation’s revolutionary cause, and have a sharp vision and good qualifications, meeting the requirements of both short- and long-term tasks.

The Government leader expressed his belief that under the Party’s leadership, the people’s public security intelligence force will obtain greater achievements, thereby contributing to the cause of national construction and defense, and deserving the Party, State, and people’s trust.
