According to a report delivered at the meeting,
the Party Committees and administrations of Son La and Hoa Binh provinces have

Department and relevant localities, cracked down on 107 cases and arrest 240
suspects. They also seized 153.42kg of heroin, 250.82kg and 134,160 synthetic
drug pills, along with a number of related documents and assets.

in encouraging people to surrender weapons and explosive materials to police.
Local security and order have been improved while political security has been
ensured. Criminal activities have also been suppressed, contributing to local
socio-economic development.
At the meeting, Deputy Minister Le Quy Vuong and
Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Quang applauded the
outcomes obtained by Hoa Binh, Son La and relevant agencies.
Regarding focal tasks in the time ahead, the
deputy minister asked the Party Committees and People’s Committees of Hoa Binh
and Son La to reinforce and improve operations of local political systems,
especially in communes and villages, thereby promoting the capacity of
managing, steering and implementing the assigned political tasks, particularly
promoting the "All people protect the Fatherland’s security” movement,
strengthening defence-security in border areas, and preventing drug trafficking
into Vietnam.
He also ordered police and border guard forces
to drastically combat drug-related criminals in Loong Luong, Hang Kia and Pa Co
communes and nearby areas. They must pay attention to criminals who are in the
wanted list and continue to involve in drug crime.
The forces need to coordinate with relevant
ministries and sectors to submit to the Government socio-economic development
plans so as to make these areas no longer isolated and improve the material and
spiritual life of local residents, especially Mong ethnics.
Over recent years, the Farmers' Union of Mai Chau district has implemented numerous specific programmes and activities to support its members in developing products under the One Commune One (OCOP) programme.
