The New Macau Association (Chinese: 新澳門學社; Portuguese: Associação de Novo Macau) is a major pro-democratic political party in the Chinese Special Administrative Region of Macau, a former Portuguese possession. Macau is a state in which political parties do not play a role, though some civic groups put forward lists at the elections and might be considered parties. The party was established in 1992 and the founding chairman was Antonio Ng Kuok Cheong. The current chairman is Jason Chao. At the last election, 20 September 2009, the association split into two electoral lists - the Democratic New Macau Association and the Democratic Prosperous Macau Association. The two lists combined won 19.35% of popular vote and 3 seats in the legislature. At the election in 2005, the group won a plurality of 18.8% of the popular vote and 2 out of 12 popular elected seats.
