Type of security officer in Indonesia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hansip (Indonesian: Pertahanan Sipil, lit. 'Civil Defense') was a type of local security officers of an administrative village in Indonesia. Based on Presidential Decree No. 55/ 1972,[1] Hansip was part of the defense and security component in Total Defense and Security System.
Hansip was disbanded in 2014 by the Presidential Regulation No. 88/2014.[2] One of the reasons of this retraction is related to government regulation No. 6/2010. Its tasks and functions is currently conducted by the municipal police, locally known as Satuan Polisi Pamong Praja.
Hansip works in coordination with other groups - the police and pecalang (in the case of Bali), the latter being redirected from more mundane tasks like traffic direction to extra policing of large events.
