Timor - The First Decade

2012

Timor - The First Decade

2012

    The panel discusses ways in which Timor’s turbulent history can be told to present and future generations who will have limited knowledge of the Indonesian occupation (1975-1999). How can Timor’s history be revealed and returned to its people? How can the loss of its traditional culture be arrested? What can Australia do now to help preserve that history and return knowledge to the Timorese people?
    Panel moderator Vincent Plush (far right) introduces the panel (from his left): Neco Sarmento, Robyn Sloggett, Andrew McWilliam and Martin Wesley-Smith. Individually, they discuss their personal backgrounds in relation to Timor Leste.
