Trup Tindakan Cepat

The Trup Tindakan Cepat (English: Rapid Action Troops), or TTC, is an elite counter terrorism unit within the Malaysian Prison Department.

The Prisons Department are required to deploy such a unit because many high-profile criminals and terrorists are detained, including those under the Internal Security Act (ISA).

This unit liaises with other agencies, including the Pasukan Gerakan Khas and Royal Malaysian Navy's PASKAL which are also involved in national security.

In March 2010, the second series of TTC selection was attended by 32 trainees, only 18 personnel passed a 15-week course at the Prison Officer Training Centre, Taiping, Perak.
