Lao Cai Border Guard Force supports local residents in digital transformation

To help bridge the digital divide among ethnic minority communities in disadvantaged border communes, the Lao Cai Border Guard Force has launched a model entitled “Border Guards Accompanying Local Residents in Digital Transformation in Border Areas”. Under the initiative, working teams have been established to visit villages and individual households to disseminate legal information and help residents access digital platforms and online public services, develop digital-platform sales skills, identify harmful and malicious information, and prevent online fraud. These activities have helped raise public awareness and promote compliance with the law, build a safe and healthy online environment, and encourage local people to play an active role in safeguarding national territorial sovereignty and border security.
