The Ministry of Public Security (MPS, Chinese: 公安部; pinyin: Gōng'ānbù)^{[note 1]} is a government ministry of the People's Republic of China responsible for public and political security. It oversees more than 1.9 million of the country's law enforcement officers and as such the vast majority of the People's Police. While the MPS is a nationwide police force, conducting counterintelligence and maintaining the political security of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) remain its core functions.^[1]^[2]^[3]
