HCMC police officers turn patchy walls into beautiful mural

This is the 8th artistic mural project in a series of works implemented by the HCMC Police Department.
The project is to celebrate the upcoming 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification Day (April 30, 1975-2025) and the 80th founding anniversary of the People's Public Security Forces (August 19, 1945-2025).
The project is also an activity in response to the 2023 National Volunteer Festival and the International Day of People with Disabilities (December 3).
Prior to this, the local police force has advised the City’s 138 Steering Committee to carry out over 3,000 dissemination campaigns on removing illegal advertisements of all kinds on walls and other items in local residential areas.

As a result, some patchy walls on Vo Thi Sau street (District No.3), which were filled with illegal advertisement papers and paintings have been turned into colorful murals portraying Vietnam landscapes and people.
According to Senior Colonel Mai Hoang, Deputy Director of the HCMC Police Department, this is not only a very artistic work, but it also shows the enthusiasm of the City’s Police Youth Board.
