Although this regime always proclaims that it is a state “of the people, by the people and for the people” but in its actions, the Communist Party has revealed everything it thinks. That is, they want people to be blind to confuse the Party’s tricks and merits. If people are not blind, then they want people to be afraid when it comes to the government. And that is why the Communist Party always favors the Ministry of Public Security, giving it more rights, more money and more weapons.
It is also correct to say that the Communist state is a regime that implements ignorance, but it is also correct to say that they are a police state. Because ignoramus and police rule are two sides of the same coin. A government that wants to keep the people uneducated is an unjust government, and because of this unjust nature, they need more police to rule the people. Because what they are doing, have done and will do things that if people have knowledge and conscience, they must speak up.
If the democratic state evolves towards more integrity, then the Communist state evolves towards more tricks and insidiousness. Using the police to suppress people is a low-level approach, the best approach is to turn innocent people into criminals, then the state punishes them in the name of law.
The recent case of residents in Nghi Son town, Thanh Hoa province protesting against Long Son Container Port project shows how the Ministry of Public Security uses this sophisticated trick.
The government set up a project to destroy the fishermen’s long-standing source of livelihood. People stood up to protest. Then, the Ministry of Public Security stepped in and prosecuted the victims of the project, accusing them of “disturbing public order.” From then on, people – from victims – were turned into criminals by the police. Although, the cause of the protest is because the government overthrew the people’s rice bowl.
The case of expanding the Ministry of Public Security’s headquarters at 44 Yet Kieu, Hanoi, is similar. Currently, Minister To Lam is creating a scenario to turn the people whose land was stolen here into criminals. What is General To Lam’s approach?
To coerce and suppress people to force Hanoi residents to accept the ministry’s plan of grabbing their lands, the police used the low-cost method of calling agencies and workplaces of children of families who were displaced. above. They even called friends, relatives, and in-laws of these families to put pressure. If they do not cooperate, the police will influence the victims’ children to quit their jobs.
The heads of households whose land is targetted and their relatives are always monitored and followed, as if they were criminals. This is a dirty and despicable act committed by the police. Human rights are seriously violated. Threats and mental intimidation, which seemed to be just the acts of gangsters, debt collectors, and thugs, are now being carried out by people who are enforcing the law.
On the other hand, the publication of false news by press agencies has caused frustration, anger and resentment for all people whose land is being grabbed. Tien Phong newspaper published an article on July 6; Urban Economics Newspaper and Culture Newspaper published news on July 28 that people agreed to give land for the expansion of the headquarters of the Ministry of Public Security at 44 Yet Kieu. Meanwhile, 90% of households in Hang Long alley, Nguyen Du street and Le Duan street oppose land grabbing.
On August 11, carrying out the forced measurement of real estate, the police did not wear uniforms, did not wear name tags, did not have identification cards, and blatantly arrested 5 citizens from 2.20 pm to 10.50 pm without a detention decision. This is contrary to Article 18, Decree 142/2021/ND-CP, regulating the time limit for detaining people according to administrative procedures. So dirty that the police even intervene with the post office to prevent people from sending petitions to the National Assembly Standing Committee.
Currently, the police are setting up a trap, including the contributions of the press, to lure victims of land theft into a trap. They waited, any act of protest by the victims could result in the police framing them, arresting them, and then allowing the entire press system to frame those poor victims as criminals. Indeed, the Communists’ tricks are profound and unpredictable.
