He required the force to take resolute and zero-tolerance action against the crimes that directly affect the peaceful and happy lives of the people.

The Minister underscored the importance of building strong and modern criminal investigation agencies at all levels, ensuring close coordination between the central level and local one, and providing more support for communal-level police units so they are fully capable of preventing and combating in the current situation.

He further directed the force to pay much attention to attacking all types of crime, particularly those disguised as legitimate enterprises, drug-related crimes, environmental crimes, street crimes and cyberfraud.

In the immediate period, Minister Luong Tam Quang urged the entire Criminal Investigation Police Force to effectively launch a comprehensive counter-crime campaign, contributing to ensuring security and order for the 14th National Congress of the Communist Party of Vietnam, the election of deputies to the 16th National Assembly and People’s Councils at all levels for the 2026–2031 term, the 2026 Lunar New Year Festival (Year of the Horse), as well as major national events and year-begining festivals.
