Police in Vietnam have conducted several drug testing operations as part of initiatives to combat drug crimes and ensure safety in various sectors. In late October 2026, authorities in Kbang Commune, Gia Lai Province, performed rapid drug tests on 42 delivery workers. All individuals tested negative. This action was part of a provincial goal to establish drug-free localities. By early November 2026, these operations expanded to include larger groups of industrial and energy workers. In Gia Lai province, police inspected over 130 workers at a local company, while in Ha Tinh province, authorities collaborated with a wind power project to test 300 workers. All participants in these subsequent operations also returned negative results. On October 29, 2026, police in Ia Hrung commune, Gia Lai province, conducted unannounced inspections of businesses with conditional security and order requirements, such as karaoke bars, motels, and hotels. Authorities reviewed compliance with residency and fire safety laws, and administered rapid drug tests to 15 individuals, including employees and guests. All 15 individuals tested negative. Lieutenant Colonel Nguyen The Cong, Deputy Chief of Ia Hrung Commune Police, stated that these inspections are a key solution to clean up the area and support the goal of building a drug-free commune.
