Three more public security officers embark on UN mission in South Sudan

Authorized by the President, Minister of Public Security Sen. Lieut. Gen. Luong Tam Quang presented the decisions to Lieut. Col. Hoang Trong Hoa, Capt. Nguyen The Anh, and Capt. Tran Thi Thu Trang.

Minister Quang said that recent decisions to this effect have shown the trust and attention of the Party and State to the force, as well as the overall growth and maturity of the entire force and each officer. This can be seen in both safeguarding national security whilst carrying out noble international tasks for the causes of peace and stability in the region and the world over.

The Minister asked the officers to unify their awareness on participating in UN peacekeeping activities, thereby affirming that this is an important task of the country in general and the Ministry in particular. Indeed, it can be viewed as a specific action that directly contributes to maintaining and creating sustainable peace and security in the region and throughout the world at large.

They were required to strictly follow regulations of the UN and the host country, as well as the Ministry of Public Security.

Since October, 2022, the Ministry has dispatched three groups with eight members to the UNMISS and the Interim Security Force for Abyei (UNISFA), as well as one officer to the Police Division at the UN headquarters. The first group finished their working tenure and returned to Vietnam in April.
