GNR na rua 24 horas por dia a partir de segunda-feira

A partir de segunda-feira, todas as forças policiais vão patrulhar a cidade de Díli, 24 horas por dia e não apenas até às 11 da noite como acontece agora.

O que significa que a cidade vai estar mais segura, com a GNR a poder deslocar-se livremente por toda a cidade, 24 horas por dia.

Obrigado, Senhor Primeiro-Ministro.

Timor parliament to consider oil deal
July 27, 2006 - 5:04PM - Sydney Morning Herald

A deal carving up billions of dollars worth of Timor Sea oil and gas will be brought before East Timor's parliament within two weeks, Prime Minister Jose Ramos Horta said on Thursday.

He added that the deal would not fall victim to recent political upheaval in the country.

Ramos Horta said the Timor sea treaty between Australia and East Timor struck in Sydney in January would not be torn up amid rivalries within the parliament fuelled by recent fighting between rival security forces and ethnic gangs.

Some investors had feared that the dominant Fretilin party, which has 55 out of 88 seats in parliament, might hold off signing the deal in a bid to put pressure on Ramos Horta and President Xanana Gusmao not to pursue charges against ousted PM Mari Alkatiri.

Alkatiri, a Fretilin member, stood down in June amid allegations he sanctioned the arming of hit squads to remove political opponents.

But Ramos Horta said the Timor sea treaty would be brought to parliament soon where he would make a "robust and convincing argument" for ratification.

"I have no doubt that we will secure the majority need to ratify it, and I have the full intention of honouring this agreement and bringing it to ratification," he said.

"Timor Leste cannot be in the habit of negotiating agreements, signing them and then we change our mind and then withhold ratification.

"So we intend to do it before the end of my term, which is May 2007, but long before that, sometime this year, in the next few weeks."

Ramos Horta's pledge will be good news for Woodside Petroleum, which is the Australian-based operator of the Greater Sunrise field.

The field is expected to pump around $US30 billion ($A39.49 billion) in oil revenues over 30 years into the coffers of the Australian and East Timor governments, split evenly between both countries.

The deal was negotiated by Alkatiri, who infuriated Australia's government with his hard-nosed bargaining for a deal which will bring around $US15 billion ($A19.75 billion) to his cash-strapped economy, which is Asia's poorest.

Foreign Minister Alexander Downer said he was pleased with Ramos Horta's commitment.

"We would obviously like East Timor to move towards ratification of the Greater Sunrise deal," he said.

"We haven't ourselves ratified it, we've said we will complete our ratification processes when East Timor ratifies it. The sooner the better."

Mr Downer, speaking at a regional summit in Kuala Lumpur, also played down an assessment by one of South East Asia's top bureaucrats that a proposed Asian trade bloc counting Australia and New Zealand was turning into a talk shop.

Ong Keng Yong, the secretary-general of the 10-country Association of South East Asian Nations, told New Zealand papers that the East Asia Summit hailed last year by Prime Minister John Howard as a diplomatic triumph was little more than a "brainstorming forum".

"I think there are a whole series of different drivers of regional integration," Mr Downer said.

"Apesar de frágil, Timor-Leste é uma jovem democracia em que acreditamos. É o país que escolhemos para viver e trabalhar. Desde dia 28 de Abril muito se tem dito sobre a situação em Timor-Leste. Boatos, rumores, alertas, declarações de países estrangeiros, inocentes ou não, têm servido para transmitir um clima de conflito e insegurança que não corresponde ao que vivemos. Vamos tentar transmitir o que se passa aqui. Não o que ouvimos dizer... "
