In recent years, the situation of drug crime activities in the country in general and the border area of Quang Tri in particular has been complicated, in which the two districts of Huong Hoa and Dakrong have been identified as key complicated areas of the province.
Emerging are groups of local youth who take advantage of the family relationships on both sides of the border, the characteristics of the border on the river, and trails to form closed networks to find ways to transport drugs to Vietnam through the border area of the province with many sophisticated and cunning methods and tricks. The subjects are equipped with weapons, ready to fight back against the authorities when discovered and arrested.
Faced with that situation, the Provincial Party Committee and Provincial People's Committee have issued many policies and solutions to resolutely direct forces, agencies, departments, branches and localities to synchronously deploy measures to fight, prevent, suppress and handle with positive results. However, recently, the drug crime situation in the border areas of Dakrong and Huong Hoa districts has tended to increase, becoming complicated and unpredictable.
In order to clean up and transform the border area in a positive direction, ensure security and order, and create a safe and healthy social environment, on September 14, 2023, the Provincial People's Committee issued Decision No. 233/QD-UBND on promulgating a plan to prevent, control, combat and stop drug crimes, and clean up the border area of Quang Tri province (referred to as Decision 233) and Decision No. 2830/QD-UBND dated November 24, 2023 on establishing a steering committee and a working group to implement the plan (Decision 2830).
At the conference, after listening to the plan to prevent, control, combat drug crimes, and clean up the province's land border areas (called Plan 233) and decisions 233 and 2830, delegates discussed and gave comments to perfect the operating regulations and assign specific tasks to the Steering Committee for implementing Plan 233.
Accordingly, the Steering Committee for the implementation of Plan 233 has 15 members, the steering committee's support team has 11 members. Permanent Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Ha Sy Dong is the head of the committee; Commander of the Provincial Border Guard Command, Colonel Le Van Phuong is the Standing Deputy Head of the Committee.
Concluding the conference, Permanent Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Ha Sy Dong affirmed that this is a comprehensive plan, promoting the combined strength of the entire political system, the drastic participation of functional forces on both sides of the border to prevent, fight and stop crimes and drug abuse.
To effectively implement Plan 233, departments, branches, and organizations from the province to communes and towns in the border area, based on their functions and tasks, must seriously organize and disseminate, develop an implementation plan combining prevention and combat; The provincial Border Guard actively coordinates with Dakrong and Huong Hoa districts to develop the content of the implementation program, focusing on propaganda work and strengthening international cooperation with Laos to build a peaceful, friendly and cooperative border, especially in the fight against drug crimes.
Regarding propaganda work, the Department of Information and Communications shall coordinate with local and central press agencies to develop specialized pages, columns, and topics on the prevention, fight, and suppression of crime and drug abuse. Agencies, units, and localities need to pay attention to and prioritize job creation from projects and support programs for people in remote, isolated, and border areas.
The Standing Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee requested that the implementation of the plan must regularly report results to the steering committee to promptly resolve problems; encourage and replicate typical examples and good, effective models in the work of preventing, combating, and stopping crimes and drug abuse in border areas.
