The meeting was held on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day (1945–2025) as well as the 80th anniversary of the People’s Public Security force (August 19, 1945 – 2025).

From 1954 until the victory of April 30, 1975, that liberated the south and reunited the nation, in line with Party Central Committee resolutions and the spirit of “All for the great frontline” and “All for the beloved South,” the Ministry of Public Security dispatched more than 11,200 elite officers to the southern battlefield.

They endured hardship and danger, working with local security forces to gather intelligence, guide operations, counter enemy campaigns and protect the Central Office for South Vietnam.
