INTRODUCTION

1. Reason for choosing the topic

In the current situation, when the country is effectively implementing the Party's renovation policy and industrialization and modernization, our country's economy has grown strongly, foreign investment has continuously increased every year. Along with that is the strong development of industrial parks, export processing zones, high-tech zones, commercial centers, high-rise apartment buildings, gas stations, oil stations, etc. Besides, the increasing population, especially in big cities and industrial provinces, has led to many factors leading to the risk of fire and explosion that is warned to be very high.

It can be said that in the context of the country's continuous construction and development, fire prevention and fighting plays an increasingly important role. Fire prevention and fighting has been given attention and focus by the Party, the State and all levels of government. This is reflected in the fact that many important documents have been issued, such as: On June 25, 2015, the Central Party Secretariat issued Directive No. 47 on strengthening the Party's leadership in fire prevention and fighting, in which the Secretariat requested Party committees, authorities, the Fatherland Front and mass organizations from the central to the grassroots levels to identify fire prevention, fighting and rescue as one of the key, regular daily tasks; Law on Fire Prevention and Fighting 2001 (amended and supplemented in 2013), Decree No. 79/2014/ND-CP dated July 31, 2014 of the Government detailing the implementation of a number of articles of the Law on Fire Prevention and Fighting and the Law amending and supplementing a number of articles of the Law on Fire Prevention and Fighting; Decree No. 167/2013/ND-CP dated November 12, 2013 of the Government regulating handling of administrative violations in the field of security, order and social safety; prevention and control of social evils; fire prevention and control; prevention and control of domestic violence; Law on Handling of Administrative Violations 2012;…

2,375 fires (2,025 fires at facilities, houses, vehicles and 350 forest fires) killed 90 people, injured 143 people, caused property worth an estimated VND 1,307.078 billion and 1,352 hectares of forest; 42 explosions killed 29 people, injured 30 people, and caused property damage worth VND 3,432 million [19].

In recent years, the economic situation of Hanoi has grown with many foreign investment projects, many industrial parks established, many commercial centers, high-rise apartment buildings built. However, the strong development of the city also poses significant challenges for the Fire Prevention and Fighting Police force. Especially after the administrative boundaries of the capital were expanded, the population

The urbanization is taking place rapidly, along with the emergence of a series of industrial parks, high-tech parks, and export processing zones, while the infrastructure still shows many shortcomings and weaknesses, and the fire prevention and fighting awareness of many agencies, businesses, and a part of the population is not high. Therefore, if fire prevention and fighting is not well implemented, it will greatly affect the economic development of the city in particular and the country in general.

According to the Hanoi City Fire Prevention and Fighting Police, in 2014, there were 166 fires and explosions in the city (164 fires, 02 explosions); causing 18 deaths, 15 injuries, and property damage estimated at over 200 billion VND.

Violations of the law are illegal acts, at fault, committed by subjects with legal capacity and responsibility, violating social relations protected by law [36, p. 211].

Administrative violations are a type of law violation that occurs quite commonly in social life. Although its level of danger to society is lower than that of crimes, administrative violations are acts that cause damage or threaten to cause damage to the interests of the State, the collective, the interests of individuals as well as the common interests of the entire community, which is the cause of crime arising in all areas of social life if not prevented and handled promptly.
