The General Union of Neighbourhood Associations of Macau (Chinese: 澳門街坊會聯合總會; Portuguese: União Geral das Associações dos Moradores de Macau), sometimes shortened to the GUNA or the Neighbourhood Union (Chinese: 街坊總會 or 街總), is a pro-Beijing political party in Macau that is represented in the Legislative Assembly.
The General Union of Neighbourhood Associations of Macau (GUNA) was formed on 30 December 1983 with a call for unity among Macanese following social changes brought by the Chinese Government's reform policies. The GUNA provided services ranging from child to elderly care as well as education and basic community services.[2] It was regarded as part of the traditional faction within the pro-Beijing camp.
