The Movement for the Liberation of the Enclave of Cabinda (pt|Movimento para a Libertação do Encrave de Cabinda; fr|Mouvement de Libération de l'Enclave du Cabinda; MLEC) is a defunct, separatist organization that campaigned for the independence of Cabinda province from Portugal. MLEC merged with the Action Committee of the Cabinda National Union(which was originally a faction of MLEC) and the Mayombe National Alliance in 1963 to form the Front for the Liberation of the Enclave of Cabinda. Cabinda is now a province and an exclave of Angola.[1]
