Tam Chung Border Guard Station mobilizes people to hand over 87 weapons and explosives

In order to proactively prevent complex security and order issues arising from the use of hunting guns and homemade guns, in recent years, Tam Chung Border Guard Station (Muong Lat) has had many good and creative ways to contribute to improving the effectiveness of the management and recovery of weapons, explosives, and supporting tools (VK-VLN-CCHT) among ethnic minorities. In particular, it has focused on promoting propaganda to raise awareness among people in strictly complying with the regulations of the Party and State on the management and use of VK-VLN-CCHT, and dangerous toys.

Through propaganda, on the morning of April 5, people went to the VK-VLN-CCHT collection point of Tam Chung Border Guard Station to hand over their guns.

On the morning of April 5, Tam Chung Border Guard Station carried out propaganda and mobilized local people to hand over weapons, explosives and explosives. Through propaganda, local people came to hand over 5 homemade guns of various types to the Border Guard Station.

Mr. Hoang Van Quyen, born in 1971, in Poong village, Tam Chung commune, came to hand over his homemade gun to Tam Chung Border Guard Station, saying: “Our people have the habit of using guns to hunt and protect crops, and also to improve the family's diet. However, in recent years, some people have used hunting guns and homemade guns, causing many unpredictable consequences, posing many potential risks to security and order. Therefore, when the Tam Chung Border Guard Station officers propagated that the use of VK-VLN-CCHT is illegal, I had a homemade gun and handed it over to the Border Guard force.”

Mr. Hoang Van Quyen, a resident of Poong village, Tam Chung commune, came to hand over the gun to the officers of Tam Chung Border Post.

Captain Nguyen Van Thien, Deputy Political Commissar of Tam Chung Border Post, said: Tam Chung Commune has 8 villages, with 837 households/4,011 people living there. The households living here are mainly Mong, Thai, Muong, Kinh ethnic groups. Due to the habit of using guns for hunting and protecting crops, currently a part of the local people still use hunting guns, homemade guns, which pose many potential risks to security and order. Implementing the plan of the Provincial Border Guard Command, Tam Chung Border Post has coordinated with functional forces and villages to implement the plan to collect explosives, explosives and hazardous waste to the villages.

People come to hand over guns to the Border Guard

Thanks to the proactive propaganda and mobilization work among ethnic minorities under the responsibility of the Station, from the beginning of 2020 until now, the People have handed over 87 homemade guns of various types. On the morning of April 5 alone, the unit launched a propaganda campaign in Poong village (Tam Chung), and the People voluntarily handed over 5 homemade guns of various types.

Tam Chung Border Guard Station officers propagate to people not to illegally store or use weapons.

Through the propaganda and mobilization work to collect weapons, explosives and dangerous goods, in the past time, in the area under the management of the station, there has been no situation of people using weapons that cause serious consequences for society. The above results also show that the awareness of illegal use of weapons, explosives and dangerous goods among the people has been significantly raised. In addition to regularly maintaining mobile propaganda work to raise awareness and sense of law compliance for the people, we also deploy many professional measures to grasp the situation of storage and use of weapons in households, thereby enlisting the help of village elders, village chiefs, and prestigious people in the clans to directly propagate and mobilize people to voluntarily hand over and sign commitments to strictly comply with the provisions of the law on handing over weapons, explosives and dangerous goods in the area.
