South Seattle Community College’s International Programs office hosted 21 Vietnamese Ministers of Public Safety as part of a short-term program designed to demonstrate the best practices of local law enforcement and security offices in the Seattle area.
The ministers visited many sites, including the Southwest Seattle Police Precinct, Bellevue Police Department, Microsoft Security Center, Seattle Emergency Preparedness Center, Washington State Police Patrol Academy, King County Correctional Facilities in Kent, and Sea-Tac Airport Security Department. They also toured local cultural sites including the Pike Place Market, and they took a trip to Leavenworth. ♦
