Speaking at the festival, Hung asked the Party Committee and authorities of Quynh Nhai district to continue to leading and directing the effective implementation of the “All people join hands in safeguarding national security” movement in conjunction with patriotic emulation movements.

The district needs to innovate the content, forms, and methods of dissemination, arousing patriotism, national pride and respect for the rule of law among residents; while encouraging them to raise vigilance, responsibility, and capacity to protect security and order, he said.

The local authorities must listen to people's opinions to promptly meet their legitimate thoughts and aspirations; and regularly care for their lives, both materially and spiritually, he added.

“It is necessary to actively build the Party, administration the people's public security force, and other forces engaging in protecting security and order at the grassroots level in order to meet the requirements in the new situation,” he noted.
