The Fire Brigade was established in Macau on 2 May 1883, whereby the early firefighting work was governed by Xiangshan County Government of Guangdong Province. From the late 19th century to present, the fire brigade has developed into today's army with advanced equipment and more than 1,000 personnel. Macau Post released a set of stamps to commemorate the 130th anniversary of the establishment of the Fire Brigade in Macau in 2013. The stamp in the miniature sheet features the Command Building of Fire Brigade and a British style steam pump.
