Vietnamese police banned from wearing sunglasses and hiding behind trees

The Vietnamese Ministry of Public Security have issued instructions banning police in the country from wearing black sunglasses, from smoking, from reading books and from putting their hands into pockets while on duty at public places.

Under the new order, officers from the People's Police of Vietnam must keep appropriate manners and be in the right position when on duty.



This means traffic police must not hide behind trees to ambush and issue fines.

They are also prohibited from drinking alcohol during their working time and at the police station, and are not allowed to be heavily drunk at any time or any place, the ministry said. They also cannot eat at restaurants that illegally encroach onto pavements.
