Law Festival to propagate drug prevention and control for union members and youth at Tran Quoc Tuan High School.
The series of response activities have been deployed in a systematic and large-scale manner. The opening ceremony was a large-scale rally on the morning of June 25, 2025, organized by the Ministry of Public Security in coordination with the People's Committee of Quang Ninh province, in response to the Action Month on Drug Prevention and Control, and at the same time celebrate the International Day and National Day on Drug Prevention and Control. This event attracted more than 1,000 cadres, soldiers, union members, and youth, with marching and parading activities to spread the strong message to the community. This was followed by an exchange and art program at October 30 Square on the evening of June 28, combining singing and dancing performances, reality reports, and sharing from clubs supporting people after drug withdrawal, strongly conveying the message of a drug-free community.
A highlight is the "One determination - For a drug-free community" Run taking place on June 29, 2025 at 30/10 Square, Ha Long Ward, with the participation of more than 5,000 athletes in the 5km and 10km distances. This activity not only aims to improve health but also symbolizes the spirit of determination towards a healthy lifestyle, saying no to drugs, demonstrating the will of the entire people in the fight against drug abuse.
Along with large-scale events, localities and organizations have also organized a series of conferences, seminars, and extracurricular activities, integrating them into community activities, attracting the attention of many people. Police at all levels have stepped up the peak period of suppressing drug crimes, focusing on administrative inspections, testing, and controlling complex locations, especially at business establishments and night entertainment areas such as Bai Chay...
In particular, since the beginning of 2025, Quang Ninh province has strengthened drug prevention and control work and achieved positive results. The drug crime situation on the Vietnam-China border continues to be well controlled, no crimes of illegal transportation and trading of drugs across the border have been detected, nor have crimes of illegal production of drugs and cultivation of plants containing drugs been detected. Control of legal activities related to drugs continues to be maintained.
The fight against drug trafficking lines from other provinces into the province has been focused and achieved high efficiency, typically the dismantling of a line illegally buying and selling large quantities of heroin from Phu Tho to Quang Ninh with a particularly serious nature. Quang Ninh also focuses on measures to reduce the "demand" for drugs, especially acts of harboring and organizing illegal drug use. Although the subjects still take advantage of entertainment service establishments, there has been a tendency to move to more discreet locations such as apartments, motels, rental apartments, and private houses to organize illegal drug use.
In the first 6 months of 2025, the whole province arrested 306 cases with 758 drug offenders, a decrease of 11% in the number of cases and 10.9% in the number of subjects compared to the same period. The police force arrested 301 cases, 753 subjects (a decrease of 10.6% in the number of cases and 10.5% in the number of subjects compared to the same period), criminally prosecuted 299 cases, 596 subjects, administratively prosecuted 02 cases, 157 subjects, and imposed a fine of 203 million VND. The Border Guard force arrested 04 cases, 04 subjects and the Coast Guard arrested 01 case, 01 subject. Seized evidence included 13,208.61 grams of heroin; 983.45 grams of synthetic drugs; 1,812.7 grams of dried marijuana; 997.81 grams of dried plants and 547 ml of solution containing synthetic cannabis, along with numerous weapons and other vehicles.
Drug addiction treatment has also recorded many positive results. Quang Ninh province's drug addiction treatment facility has implemented many effective measures in preventing, treating addiction and supporting the reintegration of students into the community. In particular, counseling and career orientation after drug addiction treatment are focused on, along with promoting the application of science and technology in management and treatment. The province is also promoting voluntary drug addiction treatment to bring about more sustainable results.
With concerted efforts and high determination, Quang Ninh has set a goal of striving to have 50% of communes “free of drugs” by 2025. This is a challenging goal but clearly demonstrates the province’s strong determination in building a safe, healthy and sustainably developing community, free of drugs.
