The Macau Security Force (Chinese: 澳門保安部隊,[1] Portuguese: Forças de Segurança de Macau)[2] is Macau's public security body under the Secretariat for Security, responsible for handling government activities ranging from law enforcement to public safety.

## History[edit]

In 1975, the MSF was created to take the place of the Macau Independent Territorial Command, which was in charge of Portuguese military forces in charge of the colony's military security.[3] Portuguese military involvement were removed in 1995 and were replaced by Macanese officers recruited to the MSF.[3]

On December 20, 1999, the various police force branches of Macau (Security Forces of Macau and Judiciary Police), under the jurisdiction of Security and Justice departments (except the customs police, who were reassigned to the Financial Service Department) were assigned to the MSF, under the supervision of the secretary of security (security department). At the time of the handover of Macau to the People's Republic of China, plans were in place to modernize the police force with the goal of better positioning the force to combat organized crime and to stop illegal immigration.[citation needed]

On October 15, 2019, the MSF's Discipline Supervision Committee was given the power to investigate complaints made towards anyone working under the MSF.[4]

## Structure[edit]

The MSF has the following organizations under its command:[4][5]

* Public Security Forces Affairs Bureau (DSFSM)
* Unitary Police Service (SPU)
* Public Security Police Force of Macau (PSP)
* Judiciary Police (PJ)
* Correctional Services Bureau (DSC)
* Fire Services Bureau (CB)
* Macau Customs Service
* Academy of Public Security Forces
