Currently, the United Nations is proposing an international cybercrime treaty, which will be signed in the near future, and the Vietnamese Ministry of Public Security is a member that will sign this treaty.
According to the Minister, this type of crime has 3 characteristics that make it difficult to detect: no borders, high anonymity and high technology. Most of the time, what is in real life is also in cyberspace, what is in real life is multiplied many times in cyberspace.

People also need to carefully review and check information when making online and electronic transactions; in case of suspected crime, promptly notify the nearest police agency for timely guidance and resolution.
Solution to handle the problem of integrating driving licenses?
Previously, participating in the questioning of Minister Luong Tam Quang, delegate Duong Van Phuoc (Quang Nam delegation) stated that integrating all types of driving licenses into one card is a correct policy in administrative procedure reform and has received the consensus and support of the people.
However, in reality, after people integrated these two types of driving licenses into one card, there were cases where people violated traffic laws while driving motorbikes and were fined by the traffic police, who kept both licenses.
During this time, the car driving license is about to expire, people want to do the procedure to renew the car driving license, but because the two above mentioned driving licenses have been integrated and are being held by the police force, the procedure to request the Department of Transport to renew the car driving license is not guaranteed, causing many difficulties for people and businesses.

From July 1, 2024, when participating in traffic, people will be able to present information and documents related to the driver and vehicle for the traffic police to check and process through the VNeID application.
During the handling process, if the violator presents documents via VNeID, the authorities will temporarily detain the documents in the electronic environment and in cases where documents related to people and means of transport have been integrated and updated on VNeID.
Minutes of decisions of competent authorities on temporary detention and return of documents are also made according to the form prescribed by law and can be made and sent electronically on the national identification application VNeID and other electronic information system applications when there are sufficient technical conditions for implementation.
