	Gender-Selective Atrocities in East Timor 9/99
		United Nations officials who stayed behind in Dili when their compound was abandoned have been bombarded with calls alleging atrocities in the refugee camps of West Timor to which thousands of East Timorese have fled.
		DILI, East Timor, Sept. 29—One day after the United Nations agreed to launch a formal inquiry into human rights abuses committed by Indonesian troops and their militia proxies in East Timor, the first physical evidence of atrocities has been discovered--the charred remains of at least nine people in the back of a burned-out pickup truck.

		Atauro Island lies directly offshore from Dili and was the final home of the Portuguese Colonial Administration when the East Timorese had their first shot at independence in 1975 (the Indonesians subsequently invaded about 30 days later and stayed until 1999).
		The hill climb out of Dili is quite steep and winding (with lots of fun obstacles like snakes, chickens, dog sleeping on the road and the odd lorry) but affords fantastic views of the city, the coast and the interior of the island.
		You can get one in Dili (it takes about 5 days, at a cost of $30US, although it is better to get one in your home country as the staff at this embassy don't have a terribly good reputation).

	Down in Dili
		But I did go to the fourth: the Dili Trade Centre, a first-floor (second-floor for the USAmericans among you) bar where the highlight of the week is the band that performs there on a Friday night (at least until the Bishop living nearby telephones to complain that he can’t sleep).
		By one o’clock it was clear that the Dili Trade Centre on a Friday night was the place to find single men of every nationality, ethnicity and sexual orientation; it was also the place for single women in unnaturally tight clothing, although they did not seem to be doing much business.

	Political storm over Australian Labor's coverup of Dili massacre (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Just two years before the Dili massacre, Evans and his Indonesian counterpart, Ali Alatas, signed the Timor Gap Treaty in a champagne drinking ceremony as they flew over the Timor Sea, making Australia the only country in the world to legally recognise the Indonesian occupation of East Timor.
		As for "party political interest" spoken of by Evans, the Dili massacre threatened to expose the bloody implications of the Labor leaders' support for the Suharto regime, including their embrace of the annexation of East Timor dating back to 1974 and 1975 when the then prime minister Gough Whitlam assured Suharto of his backing.
		Downer accepted that strong evidence existed of follow-up killings in Dili but displayed his own contempt for the victims by saying it would be "emotive" to describe the events as a massacre, rather than as "people being killed in a more ad hoc way".

	Dili massacre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Dili massacre (also known as the Santa Cruz massacre) was the shooting of East Timorese protesters, in the Santa Cruz cemetery in the capital, Dili, on 12 November 1991.
		The massacre (also euphemistically called the Dili Incident by the Indonesian government) was likened to the Sharpeville massacre in South Africa in 1960, in which unarmed protesters were also shot dead, and which saw the apartheid regime subjected to international condemnation.
		Now commemorated as a public holiday in an independent East Timor, 12th November is remembered by the East Timorese as one of the bloodiest days in their history, which gained international attention to their fight for independence.
