  • The Transnational Politics of Aceh and East Timor in the Diaspora
    MAKING NOISE: THE TRANSNATIONAL POLITICS OF ACEH AND EAST TIMOR IN THE DIASPORA by KARLA S. FALLON A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Political Science) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) May 2009 © Karla S. Fallon, 2009 Abstract This dissertation analyzes the transnational politics of two new or incipient diasporas, the Acehnese and East Tirnorese. It examines their political roles and activities in and across several countries in the West (Europe, North America, and Australia) as well as their impact on the “homeland” or country of origin, during and after armed conflict. It suggests that the importance of diaspora participation in conflict and conflict settlement is not solely or even primarily dependent on the material resources of the diaspora. Instead it is the ideational and political resources that may determine a diaspora’s ability to ensure its impact on the homeland, on the conflict, and its participation in the conflict settlement process. This study adopts a constructivist approach, process-tracing methods, and an analytical framework that combines insights from diaspora politics and theories on transnational advocacy networks (TANs). It concludes that the Aceh and East Timor cases support the proposition that diasporas are important and dynamic political actors, even when they are small, new, and weak. These cases also support the proposition that the political identities and goals of diasporas can be transformed over time as a diaspora is replenished with new members who have new or different ideas, as factions within diasporas gain power vis-à-vis others, and/or as the political partners available to the diaspora in the hostland and internationally change or broaden.

  • Divided Loyalties
    DIVIDED LOYALTIES: Displacement, Belonging and Citizenship among East Timorese in West Timor Andrey Yushard Damaledo A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University January 2016 I declare that this thesis is my own work and that I have acknowledged all results and quotations from the published or unpublished work of other people. Andrey Yushard Damaledo Department of Anthropology School of Culture, History and Language College of Asia and the Pacific The Australian National University Page | ii This thesis is dedicated to my parents Page | iii ABSTRACT This thesis is an ethnographic study of belonging and citizenship among former pro-autonomy East Timorese settlers who have elected to settle indefinitely in West Timor. In particularly I shed light on the ways East Timorese construct and negotiate their socio-political identities following the violent and destructive separation from their homeland. In doing so, I examine the ways different East Timorese groups organise and represent their economic, political and cultural interests and their efforts to maintain traditional exchange relationships in the production and reproduction of localities, inscribing connection and informing entitlement in Indonesian Timor. East Timorese in West Timor have been variously perceived as ‘refugees’ (pengungsi), ‘ex-refugees’ (eks pengungsi), and/or ‘new citizens’ (warga baru). I argue, however, that these labels misunderstand East Timorese socio-political identities in contemporary Indonesia. The East Timorese might have had Indonesia as their destination when they left the eastern half of the island in the aftermath of the referendum, but they have not relinquished their cultural identities as East Timorese.

  • "Towards Peace and Democracy in Burma" European Parliament, 05Th October 2010 Speech Maria Da Graça Carvalho
    "Towards Peace and Democracy in Burma" European Parliament, 05th October 2010 Speech Maria da Graça Carvalho His Excellency, President Ramos-Horta President Daul Ambassadors Members of the European Parliament Distinguished Guest Ladies and gentlemen, As a co-organiser of the present event and co-president of the Economic Development, Finance and Trade Committee of the ACP-UE Joint Parliamentary Assembly in the European Parliament, it is with great pleasure that I welcome President Ramos-Horta here today. President Ramos-Horta will be speaking about Burma and about peace and democracy in the country in particular. As you certainly know, Burma, as a military dictatorship has chronic problems with human rights abuses. These include: child abuse violation of the rights of minorities forced labour a degree of alleged corruption involving a number of multinationals according to human rights groups, the government still holds 2,200 political prisoners not allowing sufficient aid to enter the region affected by the Cyclone Nargis where more than 3 million were homeless and around 150,000 are thought to have died members of religious orders in Burma including an estimated 400 000 Buddhist monks, are explicitly banned from voting and a range of other problems too numerous to mention here. President Ramos-Horta's visit today is particularly timely in view of the elections due for the 7th of November. As you will know, these elections do not meet the minimum standards of a democracy: San Suu Kyi is still under house arrest and will remain so until after the elections. She has been detained for 14 of the past 20 years Individuals with foreign spouses cannot stand for elections 1/4 "Towards Peace and Democracy in Burma" European Parliament, 05th October 2010 Speech Maria da Graça Carvalho 25% of seats in the lower chamber are reserved for the military and so on and so forth.

  • 1 the East Timor Roofing Project
    1 The East Timor Roofing Project A joint project of the Rotary Clubs of Doncaster, Melbourne and Lilydale, Districts 9810 and 9800. “When subsistence farmers were given a grain silo, they could feed their families and have a surplus to sell. This would give some of them money for the first time in their life.” Dr Frank Evans What started as just another Rotary project in the year 2000 to manufacture and install corrugated roofs for homes after the Indonesians retreated from East Timor, has become an amazing success story. The East Timor Roofing Project has raised enough money to build roofs on many schools, orphanages, community and commercial buildings and homes for East Timorese, over 2,000 water tanks and in excess of 1,000 grain silos, provide training for local East Timorese trainers, who themselves have trained over 250 East Timorese in building and administration skills. Over 12,500 tonnes of steel has been used to make the roofing and associated products. Equally amazing, the committee has been working methodically for over ten years to ensure the project was viable and to change direction when required to meet the needs of the local people. This story attempts to capture some of the lessons learnt by this committed band of Rotary volunteers, the manager and workers in East Timor. (Story told by Dr Frank Evans to Pat Armstrong, both of the Rotary Club of Doncaster) Facts about East Timor Also known as Timor-Leste Made up of part of the island of Timor, plus several other small islands Situated 640 km northwest of Darwin Population is 1,066,582 (2010) Literacy rate is 50% (2010) Life expectancy (2010) is 62 years Child mortality rate (2010; under 5)-is 64/1,000 (In Australia, life expectancy is 79.3 years for males and 83.9 years for females.

He has spent most of his life fighting for and serving his people. He was a founder of a group that fought against the Indonesian occupation of his country between 1975 and 1999. He was injured in an assassination attempt in 2008. Ramos-Horta was involved in politics from a young age. When he was 25, he became Foreign Minister of the "Democratic Republic of East Timor". Three days after he arrived in New York to talk about independence for his country, Indonesian troops invaded and took over East Timor. He pleaded with the UN Security Council to end Indonesia’s occupation, in which 102,000 East Timorese died. Ramos-Horta travelled the world for two decades to raise awareness of what was happening in East Timor. He often had hardly a penny in his pocket and relied on the goodwill of well-wishers. He got the Nobel Prize in 1996 for his "sustained efforts to hinder the oppression of a small people”. Several years later, East Timor would be free. Ramos-Horta played a key role in negotiating East Timor’s independence.
