Maintain security and order during the holiday season.

The 51st anniversary of the Liberation of Southern Vietnam and National Reunification (April 30th) and International Labor Day (May 1st) is a long holiday period, and with a series of events being organized, a significant increase in traffic, vehicles, and recreational activities is predicted. To proactively prevent and mitigate potential security and order risks, law enforcement agencies have comprehensively implemented enhanced security measures.

• Proposed solution for connecting the security and public order surveillance camera system to the National Database.
• Former People's Police officers join forces to ensure security and order.
• Increase patrols to ensure security and order during the holiday period.

Take proactive control of the situation.

Following the directives of the Ministry of Public Security and the Standing Committee of the Ca Mau Provincial Party Committee and People's Committee regarding security and order during the Hung Kings Commemoration Day, the 51st anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification, and the 140th anniversary of International Labor Day, the Provincial Police Department has issued a plan assigning forces to ensure security and order before, during, and after the commemorative activities in the locality. Based on the scale and nature of the activities, the Provincial Police Department anticipates mobilizing over 1,000 officers and soldiers to ensure security and order at each event location. Emphasis will be placed on the art program and fireworks display commemorating the Liberation of the South and National Reunification at Phan Ngoc Hien Square; the Science , Technology, Culture, Tourism Week and the First Mekong Delta Delicious Rice Competition in 2026 held at Hung Vuong Square...

A three-force patrol team comprising police, military, and border guards (from Song Doc commune) conducts armed patrols to ensure political security and social order in the coastal area.

At the same time, the Provincial Police Department, in coordination with the Provincial Military Command, advised the Provincial People's Committee to issue a plan for coordinating the deployment of forces and measures to ensure security and order during holidays, Tet (Lunar New Year), and important political events in the province.

In particular, the police force throughout the province has been instructed to strengthen the prevention, fight against, and suppression of all types of crimes and violations of the law, resolutely preventing malicious individuals from taking advantage of the holiday to disrupt public order and security. They are to effectively manage residency, regulate businesses operating under conditions related to public order and security, and manage weapons, explosives, support tools, and fireworks. They are also to inspect, remind, and strictly handle cases of violations related to fire and explosion prevention and control.

Given the complexities of public security and traffic safety, especially at night and during the period leading up to the holiday, the Provincial Police directed Task Forces 21 and 238 to intensify patrols and control, covering all areas to create a deterrent and suppress crime. With core forces including the 113 Police, Criminal Police, Traffic Police, and Mobile Police, these task forces have formed a comprehensive and interconnected network across key routes and areas. Simultaneously, police in communes and wards have strengthened their intelligence gathering and suspect management, playing a key role in ensuring public security at the grassroots level. Regularly disseminate and educate the public on the law, warning about the methods and tactics of various types of crimes, especially theft and robbery, to raise awareness among the entire population in self-prevention, self-management, and self-protection, as well as actively supporting and assisting the police force in protecting national security.

A professional briefing meeting was held at the Song Doc Border Guard Station before the patrol team deployed to ensure security and order during the April 30th and May 1st holidays.

Major Tu Tuan Anh, Deputy Head of Song Doc Commune Police, said: “The commune police are strengthening coordination with military and border guard forces in attacking and suppressing crime, conducting administrative inspections, armed patrols on land, waterways and sea areas, and checking information sources on cybersecurity to ensure crime prevention and control, determined to ensure absolute safety during Hung Vuong Ancestor Commemoration Day, April 30th and May 1st.”

Maintain smooth transportation operations and strictly handle traffic violations.

To best serve the travel needs of the people and ensure smooth and safe transportation, the Prime Minister has issued a directive requesting ministries, sectors, and localities to focus on implementing comprehensive solutions. These include increasing transportation capacity, especially passenger transport; ensuring convenient connections at railway stations, airports, bus stations, and ports; and preventing shortages of vehicles due to businesses reducing trips when fuel prices rise. Simultaneously, plans should be developed to increase transportation capacity and ensure traffic safety throughout the period before, during, and after the holiday; and to strengthen inspections and enforcement of violations in transportation businesses, especially for contract vehicles, fixed-route passenger buses, waterway transport, and operations at transportation hubs. The government must resolutely address and rectify instances of price gouging and illegal fare increases.

Specifically for police forces at all levels and localities, the Prime Minister requested increased patrols and inspections, strict handling of violations of traffic safety laws; focusing on addressing offenses that are direct causes of accidents; and promptly preventing illegal racing and gatherings that disrupt public order.

The An Xuyen Ward Police patrol team held a meeting to discuss plans for night patrols to ensure good security and order in the area during the holiday.

Following the directives of the Ministry of Public Security and the Director of the Ca Mau Provincial Police regarding the intensified crackdown on crime and ensuring security, order, and traffic safety during the Hung Kings' Commemoration Day, the Liberation of the South, National Reunification Day, and International Labor Day, the Traffic Police Department, in coordination with other functional forces, has implemented comprehensive and decisive measures to maintain road and inland waterway traffic safety, ensuring the safety of people traveling and visiting before, during, and after the holidays.

Lieutenant Colonel Phan Hoai Vu, Head of the Staff Department of the Ca Mau Provincial Police, stated: "The traffic police force is determined to do a good job of patrolling, controlling, and regulating traffic to ensure traffic safety in the areas where commemorative activities are taking place, preventing traffic congestion. In addition, we will educate and remind people to comply with traffic safety laws, as well as support and assist people in their journey home for the holidays, ensuring a smooth, safe, and convenient trip."
