The event was held in order to encourage policemen to heighten their responsibilities, overcome difficulties to fulfill the assigned missions, contributing to ensuring absolute safety for senior leaders of the Party and the State as well as high-ranking international visitors.

In addition, the event aimed at calling upon people across the country to cooperate with the traffic police force, to help them complete their missions, contributing to building the image of the Vietnamese people as “friendly, hospitable, and peace-loving.”

Under the direction of the APEC 2017 Security and Orders Subcommittee of the Ministry of Public Security, the Department of Traffic Police mobilized over 800 policemen and hundreds of vehicles to serve at the event, which will take place in Da Nang City from November 6 to 11.
