Attending the workshop were leaders of central literature and art associations, leaders of Public Security units and localities, artists, theorists, and critics inside and outside the Public Security Forces.
The scientific workshop "Summary of achievements and issues raised in the field of Public Security Culture and Arts in the 50 years after the country's reunification" is an activity to concretize the activities of summarizing 50 years of Vietnamese culture and arts after the country's reunification (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2025) of the Central Propaganda Department (now the Central Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Department) and Resolution No. 05 of the Central Public Security Party Committee on "Improving the quality and effectiveness of cultural and artistic work to meet the requirements of building a revolutionary, disciplined, elite, and modern Public Security force".
The workshop is also a forum for the CAND artists to summarize their achievements, point out limitations, shortcomings and issues to innovate thinking, improve leadership capacity, effectiveness in management, creation, theory, criticism, and methods of introducing and promoting the arts and literature of the CAND.
Speaking at the workshop, Deputy Head of the Central Propaganda and Mass Mobilization Commission Ngo Dong Hai commented: Over the past 50 years, the People's Public Security Forces have always thoroughly grasped the Party's guiding viewpoints on the special position and role of literature and arts in building and developing Vietnamese culture and people to meet the requirements of sustainable development of the country in general and for the work of building the People's Public Security Forces in particular.
According to comrade Ngo Dong Hai, in the general context of the country, the People's Public Security Literature and Arts must also solve many new problems arising from practice. That is, it must have new thinking, approaches, methods, and creative styles, explore, discover, and exploit new topics and themes to promptly and vividly reflect the spiritual life, the hardships, and silent sacrifices of the Public Security soldiers in peacetime; and it must also have the task of criticizing and fighting against negative aspects, orienting and encouraging the development of a new system of cultural values in the People's Public Security.
In the early stages, the CAND literature and art were influenced by the "multi-dimensional" social context; the harmony and sharing between revolutionary literature and art and progressive literature with national spirit; the blending between peacetime and wartime; between the old, the familiar and the new, the different... making it difficult for the creators of literature and art to avoid being surprised and confused by the new, rich things of society and the practice of Public Security work in the new revolutionary period.
At the workshop, delegates focused on clarifying the historical context and development of the People's Public Security Forces' literature and arts over the past 50 years; assessing the current status of the process and achievements; limitations, shortcomings and issues raised to innovate thinking, improve leadership capacity, effectiveness in management, composition, theory, criticism, and methods of introducing and promoting the culture and arts of the People's Public Security Forces.
Speaking at the workshop, Associate Professor, Doctor of Musician Do Hong Quan, Chairman of the Vietnam Union of Literature and Arts Associations, stated: CAND Literature and Arts not only truly reflect the life and work of the police force, but also play an important role in education, improving spiritual life and ideological struggle, contributing to building a strong and united CAND force with the people. Along with the country entering a new era - the era of national development, CAND Literature and Arts must contribute significantly to strongly arousing the spirit of patriotism, self-reliance, self-confidence, self-reliance, national pride, and the aspiration to develop a strong and prosperous country.
Sharing the same opinion, Major General, writer Nguyen Hong Thai, member of the Central Council for Literature and Arts Theory and Criticism, said that since 1975, there have been thousands of literary works written on the subject of the People's Public Security Forces, many of which have resonated richly and vividly depicting the arduous struggle, the intelligence, bravery and great sacrifices of the People's Public Security Forces. He proposed recognizing the contributions of outstanding People's Public Security writers; building a new Resolution on developing People's Public Security Literature and Arts and nurturing young, talented writers in the People's Public Security Forces....
Affirming that the people's armed forces, including the People's Public Security Forces, are always a great subject and a noble source of inspiration in the creation of literature and art, Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen The Ky, Chairman of the Central Council for Literature and Art Theory and Criticism, said that in order to promote the role and effect of literature and art on this subject in the new period, to have more works of high ideological and artistic quality that attract the public, we need to build and implement a correct, long-term strategy.
