Particularly, the Vietnamese Government has just recognized the Public Security Newspaper as one of the six major national media and press agencies, while ANTV is one of the seven national political television channels.

Over the past years, the public security press sector has quickly popularized the guidelines and directions of the Party, policies and laws of the State, and the directions of the MPS’s leadership while press and media products made by the public security press and media sector also focus on reflecting the People’s Public Security Forces’ core missions of protecting national security and ensuring social order and safety.
