Amid holiday, duty calls at Dalian ports

Tian mentioned that in the police force, there is a saying: While the people celebrate the festival, the police keep working. During the holiday season, it is even more crucial for the police to stand guard and ensure service and security.

"Working during the festival has become routine for us," Tian said.

There are 10 duty teams with the Dalian entry and exit frontier inspection station, along with two border inspection patrol boat duty teams. Whether during regular days or holidays, they strive to maximize the efficiency of vessel clearance.

Statistics from the station show that it cleared more than 12,000 vessels last year. Last month, over 1,100 were cleared.
