Six years after independence, East Timor is mired in poverty. But it also sits on a future oil and gas boom. But will it be a blessing or a curse?
Fauziah Ibrahim interviews Xanana Gusmao, the East Timor prime minister.
Hey, I've been to TimorLeste before, & I really love the land, its people & the children, & I just wanna say, there is such hope for Timor to keep progressing. But you guys arguing here on which country is S**t ass & which isn't is not going to help in the progress of Timor one bit. I'm really touched to see how loyal you all are to your nation. But I think what would make more sense is to stand with dignity by your land, & not degrade yourself & not call other people names, for it does no use.

- ask Arab Stations for best oil spending strategies
- get Cuba & China for best strategies to achieve national cohesion
- ask China to help in extensively dropping the birth rate
- create a mixture of Cuban primary and German secondary education system
- ask Singapore for court and criminal sentence system
- get Germany for development assistance programs
- DO NOT GET EUROPEAN DEMOCRACY TOO EARLY, IT HAS ALMOST FAILED EVERYWHERE A COUNTRY STARTED FROM SCRATCH
or if u r a bloody natzi germany piece of S**t , I wonder what your bloody devil leader Hitler would say said to you from Hell for considering Indonesia as your Motherland.

You are such a piece of ignorant S**t dude. If you are an indonesian, look at your country now, it is just a piece of S**t in the world order, nobody count on your country mate, your country is not like china which is considered important to world order or like India which is the potential next superpower along with China and Russia!

By Rundstedt1 [Affiliate User] 1226739529 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveFor your information, East Timor did fine until the US funded invasion and genocide by Indonesia. If you somehow think that these people deserve that, or think that their poverty is their own fault, you know F**k all. This is pure American imperialism. They took it, denied it democracy, and then pretended it didn't happen. Given your comment here, I doubt you can offer a serious rebuke.

Good thing to learn how to do since that medium is global and free. All you need is a few solar rechargeable batteries and you are never out of touch.
