History

In 1982, the Ministry of Public Security formed a secret police force for aircraft hijackings. The force was transferred to the PAP; it was renamed as the Special Police School in 1985. In 2000, the school's dual education and combat/operation functions were "elevated" and it was renamed to the Special Police College. [1]
