Law enforcement agencies at the central level should take systemic measures to investigate and strictly handle human trafficking crimes while expanding cooperation with judicial agencies of other countries to attack human trafficking rings and rescue victims.

In response to the UN’s message “Victims’ voices lead the way”, Deputy Minister Ngoc asked relevant agencies to work together to promptly rescue and effectively support victims of human trafficking to reintegrate into the community.

They should also comprehend the thoughts of local people and improve the public awareness of human trafficking so as to actively prevent human trafficking in their localities, Deputy Minister Ngoc said.
