Speaking at the conference, Nguyen Trong Tri, Deputy Director of the Dong Nai Department of Justice, emphasized that organizing legal dissemination, education, and consultation is a practical effort to concretize the Party’s guidelines and the State’s policies on legal awareness and education, particularly for vulnerable groups, including ethnic minorities. These activities help equip locals with fundamental and practical legal knowledge closely tied to daily life, while also providing updated information on new legal policies concerning ethnic minority communities.
