He also pointed out various difficulties for the press and media within the Public Security Forces, saying that the press and media management agency’s inconsistency in directing the press and media obstructs their information and dissemination plans.

Colonel Khai hoped that relevant agencies will be more willing and ready to give information to the press and media, especially information relating hot issues and issues of public concern.

Senior Colonel Nguyen Quang Vinh, Vice Director of Public Security Radio-Television and Cinema (ANTV) emphasized the role of the fight against degradation in political ideology, morality and lifestyle, and manifestations of “self-evolution” and “self-transformation” within the public security forces. In doing so, the public security press and media agencies have focused on the two main directions: fighting false allegations, distorted information made by hostile forces on one hand; and building and honoring outstanding good examples in society in general and the public security forces in particular, on the other hand.

Deputy Minister Nguyen Van Thanh recognized and praised the recommendations and ideas of participants at the conference. He also asked the press and media agencies under the MPS to grasp thoroughly and implement effectively directions of the Party Central Committee, the Central Party Committee of Public Security and leaders of the MPS on ideological work and theoretical issues.

He also emphasized the need to intensify the struggle against wrong viewpoints and allegations of hostile forces to distort the Marxism, Leninism and Ho Chi Minh thoughts, or downgrade the Party's leading role, running against the national interests.
