  • Report (1997), Only Five African Countries Have a Lower GDP Per Capita Than East Timor’S Post- Crisis $US168 Per Capita
    CHAPTER 2 ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT The East Timor economy1 2.1 The Indonesian withdrawal from East Timor in September 1999, accompanied by a campaign of violence, killings, massive looting and destruction of property and infrastructure, forced transportation of large numbers of people to West Timor and the flight of most of the rest of the population from their homes, left the East Timor economy in ruin. This section, therefore, largely describes the economy as it was prior to the Indonesian withdrawal, the remains of which must serve as the foundations for the economy of an independent East Timor. 2.2 DFAT submitted that East Timor has always been principally a subsistence economy. Much economic activity occurred through barter, which was not captured in GDP figures. Economic statistics for East Timor were scarce and unreliable, as was detailed information about economic activity. DFAT stated that: Preliminary figures from the Indonesian Government Bureau of Statistics (BPS) indicate that East Timor’s 1998 GDP was Rp1405 billion ($US148 million) using an average annual exchange rate of for 1998 of Rp9514/$US. GDP per capita was approximately $US168 in 1998. Largely reflecting conditions before the Indonesian economic crisis, East Timor’s GDP (at current market prices) in 1997 was Rp996 billion ($US343 million). East Timor’s GDP accounts for a tiny 0.15% of Indonesia’s national GDP. According to the BPS, per capita GDP was Rp1.1 million ($US379) compared with a national GDP per capita of Rp3.1 million ($US1,068). According to the World Bank’s World Development Report (1997), only five African countries have a lower GDP per capita than East Timor’s post- crisis $US168 per capita.

Framework 1.1 Background Since August 1999, when following a popular consultation the Timorese freely decided on their future, Portugal has been dedicated to the process for the rebuilding and development of East Timor. This dedication, which is reflected in the different Portuguese cooperation bilateral and multilateral projects, has gone through three different stages – humanitarian emergency aid, rebuilding and development support – and has always focused on the direct requests made by the legitimate representatives of the Timorese people. The first Indicative Cooperation Programme appear in the year 2000, its purpose being to transform emergency aid objectives into development aid objectives. It was thus that the attempt to support the creation and subse- quent consolidation of the Timorese State was made, based on universal principles.

(Bill) Carter School of Natural and Rural Systems Management The University of Queensland Bruce Prideaux Department of Tourism and Leisure Management The University of Queensland with Vicente Ximenes School of Natural and Rural Systems Management The University of Queensland FRETILIN Member and Adrien V. P. Chatenay Griffith University Occasional Paper 2001 8(1):1-101 Carter, R. W., Prideaux, B., Ximenes, V. and Chatenay, A. V. P. Occasional Paper 2001 8(1) Authors’ note On 5 May 1999, it was announced from New York by the United Nations that ‘popular consultation’ would be held in East Timor to determine its political future as an independent nation or an autonomous state within Indonesia. After a number of delays, the newly elected Indonesian President, B. J. Habibie, announced that the referendum would occur on 30 August 1999, overseen by the United Nations. On 10 May 1999, Mr Vicente Ximenes, an expatriate East Timorese, FRETILIN leader and recent graduate from the University of Queensland approached Dr Bill Carter of the University for assistance in planning for tourism development in East Timor. Together, they prepared initial tourism input to the Strategic Development Planning for East Timor Conference, Melbourne Australia, 5-9 April 1999. Subsequent advice on tourism matters was sought, through Mr Ximenes, by the CNRT (National Council for the Timorese Resistance). Dr Bruce Prideaux of the University joined the small team to expand on the advice.
