    A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of Masters Degree in Finance from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics. TIMOR TELECOM CASE STUDY – TEN YEARS OF EXPERIENCE ANDRÉ FILIPE TOMÉ LOPES CASTELHANO HERMENEGILDO, MST 16000393 A Project carried out under the supervision of Professor José Neves de Adelino June 2013 1 NOVA SCHOOL OF BUSSINESS & ECONOMICS Timor Telecom Case Study: Ten Years of Experience Dr. Manuel Capitão Amaro, Timor Telecom’s CEO since 2007, was once again assessing the final results of last week’s negotiations with the Timorese Government. At the top of the discussion were the anticipated cession of the concession contract signed in 2002 and the future of Timor Telecom (TT), the subsidiary of Portugal Telecom (PT) operating in East Timor. The 15 year Build Operate and Transfer (BOT) contract, whereby TT would manage and provide telecom services under an exclusive basis, was going to terminate after only 10 years. Market conditions were going to change with the entrance of two major telecom players in South East Asia. From the top of his office in Timor Plaza, he gathered his team around the table to draft a strategic plan to prepare the company for the great challenge lying ahead. Prior to 1999: East Timor at a glance The legacy of East Timor was that its people had always lived under the influence of foreigners. For centuries, this small territory on the eastern part of the Timor Island was under Portuguese sovereignty. The Portuguese Revolution in 1974 brought the independence of the former Portuguese colonies, and East Timor had the opportunity to become an independent nation.
