It is tasked with promoting legal awareness of border management, immigration, and import-export regulations while assisting residents and businesses in complying with relevant laws. The initiative also seeks to facilitate lawful cross-border trade and foster friendship between communities in Mong Cai of Vietnam and Dongxing of China.

At the launch ceremony, Sr. Col. Vu Van Hung directed participating agencies to further improve the content and methods of public outreach, aiming to ensure that more than 80 percent of border residents have access to legal information while reducing immigration- and trade-related violations by 20 to 30 percent.

The initiative is expected to support administrative reform and promote a modern, well-managed border gate.
