The Prime Minister assessed that the People's Public Security force has performed well its advisory role in political, economic, social, security, order, and diplomatic affairs; guaranteeing peace, security, and stability for development; helping perfect the Party’s guidelines and the State’s policies and laws, and build a law-governed socialist State; and protecting national security as well as social order and safety.

This is the leading force in administrative reform, building e-Government and boosting national digital transformation, he added.

The Prime Minister said that next year is determined to be a year of "acceleration" to achieve national economic and social development goals. As bigger difficulties and challenges are predicted for 2024, he asked the public security force to proactively grasp, assess, and forecast the domestic, regional, and global situations to submit proposals to the Party and State.

The force needs to press on with maintaining political stability and social order and safety; expanding external relations; creating an environment of peace, security, and stability for development, he said.
