The Ministry of Public Security and Nhan Dan Newspaper have closely coordinated in maintaining special pages, columns, topics, highlights... with a mechanism to provide timely information and create favorable conditions when Nhan Dan Newspaper reporters come to exploit propaganda documents.

Also this afternoon, the Ministry of Public Security and Nhan Dan Newspaper continued to sign an agreement to coordinate the dissemination of the task of protecting security and order and building the People's Public Security force in Nhan Dan Newspaper for the period 2024-2029.

Speaking at the Conference, the Minister of Public Security acknowledged and highly appreciated the results of the implementation of the propaganda coordination program between the Ministry of Public Security and Nhan Dan Newspaper for the period 2018-2023.

According to the Minister of Public Security, over the years, the Central Public Security Party Committee and the Ministry of Public Security have always paid attention to and directed the propaganda work on the task of ensuring security and order and building the People's Public Security force.
