Spokesperson Hang made the above statement after the U.S. State Department released reports on human trafficking in 2022. 

She hoped that the U.S. will closely work with the Vietnamese side to make more accurate assessment of the situation in Viet Nam as well as the country’s effort to deal with the issue.

Viet Nam stands ready to discuss with the U.S. and relevant sides on the issue and work with each other to effectively prevent trafficking in human, the Spokesperson said.  

Since 2021 when Government issued Decision No. 193/NQ-TTg on the Program on human trafficking prevention and combat in 2021-2025, all relevant ministries, agencies, and localities in Viet Nam have vigorously accelerated the fight against trafficking in persons. 

In addition, a series of guiding documents on the Law on Vietnamese guest workers, policies and legal documents on prevention of trafficking in humans, forced labor, support for victims of trafficking, and protection of children on the Internet have been issued. 

In reality, the prevention and combat of domestic and cross-border human trafficking is regularly reviewed for appropriate measures to be taken during the pandemic time. 

Viet Nam is also continuing its efforts to implement the United Nations' Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration (GCM) to strengthen a transparent migration environment, prevent the risk of human trafficking in international migration. 

On July 18, the Coordination Regulation was inked by four key ministries, namely the Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs, the Ministry of Public Security, the MOFA and the Ministry of National Defense  to strengthen responsibility and coordination across the four pillars of counter-trafficking: prosecution, prevention, protection and partnership./.
