The Country Overview
The Republic of Timor-Leste is a small country in Southeast Asia and it is one of the youngest nations on earth. The country’s history starts with colonization by Portugal and Indonesia, which led to decolonization in 1975. After being invaded by Indonesia twice, they declared their independence from their colonial power in 2002. In 2007, East Timor became an independent nation after a four-year UN administered transition period.
Timor-Leste has been at peace since 1999 when the civil war ended with Fretilin forces capturing most of the territory from anti-independence militias backed by Indonesian troops. A military coup d’état was attempted in 2006 but failed due to a lack of support from the public or army units stationed outside Dili.
The country has been developing rapidly since independence in 2002, although human rights violations have marred this progress. Twenty percent of the population still lives below the poverty line while only 1% of children are enrolled in secondary education. However, the government has attempted to address these issues by prioritizing their improvement through rapid development projects and increased budgets for social services like education and healthcare.
