HÀ NỘI – President Trần Đại Quang presented a Fatherland Defence Order, Third Class, to the People’s Public Security Guard High Command during a ceremony yesterday to celebrate the 65th anniversary of the force’s establishment.
In his remarks at the event, President Trần Đại Quang lauded the efforts and achievements of the guard force over the past 65 years. The country’s new era comes with not only many opportunities but also challenges, putting the public security forces, including the guard force, under greater pressure to ensure social order and security, the president said.
He urged the guard force, together with other forces under the Ministry of Public Security, to continue effectively enforcing the Party and the State’s policies in protecting national security, improving fighting capacity and ensuring the safety of senior officials, international events and foreign guests.
He also asked them to enhance the efficiency of their operations and take steps to prevent any acts of sabotage, terrorism, crime and anti-State movements.
The guard force, previously known as the Guard Bureau, was founded on February 16, 1953 to protect President Hồ Chí Minh and high-ranking officials during the anti-French resistance war. — VNA/VNS
