Speaking at the assignment ceremony, Nguyen Huy Tien, Chief Procurator of the Supreme People's Procuracy, highlighted Hanoi's role as the economic, political, and cultural hub of the country. He noted that the city handles a large volume of complex cases, including many special investigations monitored and directed by the Central Steering Committee for Anti-Corruption, Negative Phenomena, and Waste.

Additionally, Hanoi is one of 6 localities tasked with implementing a significant prosecutorial pilot program: the People's Procuracy initiating civil lawsuits to protect the civil rights of vulnerable groups or public interests. Therefore, the Chief Procurator urged the two newly appointed officials to immediately commence their duties to achieve outstanding results.
