The Civil Service Police Unit, or in Indonesian Satuan Polisi Pamong Praja (Satpol PP), is an Indonesian law-enforcement body, operated by the Department of Home Affairs. Its members are known as 'public order officers'.

In 2010, a controversial decree by Gamawan Fauzi (the Minister of Home Affairs), allowed for members of the unit to be armed with gas-powered revolvers or blanks and electric shock sticks.[1]
