Hansip
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 is part of defense and security component in Total Defense and Security System.
Hansip was disbanded in 2014 by Presidential Regulation No. 88/ 2014.[2] One reason for such retraction is related to government regulation No. 6/ 2010. Task and function of hansip is already currently replaced by and conducted by the municipal police, locally known as Satpol PP.
In Bali
Hansip work in coordination with other groups - the police and pecalang (in the case of Bali), the latter being redirected for extra policing of large events from more mundane tasks like traffic direction.
