Decentralization Policy in Timor-Leste´s Status

By observing the present state of East Timor's social, political and economic situation since independence, the unemployment rate rampant, social services are ineffective, basic social needs are inadequate, poverty This is also the increase. The government is trying to implement decentralization and hopes to eliminate these problems. The decentralization policy proposed by the State Department is considered a remedy. At the beginning of the draft decentralization draft 2006, local leaders such as the leaders of East Timor, administrators of districts and regions, government agencies jointly carried out decentralization efforts.

In East Timor (former East Timor), East Timor 's Director - General of the Interim Government of the United Nations proposed the process of establishing the Constitution 10 years ago, followed by the process of United Nations' aid for Cambodia. It is excluded, it is done mainly secretly. The interim government was not aware of the increase in the number of more participatory processes that occurred in the ten years following the Cambodian experience. There is no focus on the Constitutional Assistance at the UN headquarters reflecting the lessons learned by the Cambodians and the subsequent experience and emphasizes new good practices.

Twenty years ago, I never heard about the East Timor Democratic Republic. The uprising in East Timor established the East Timor, the youngest country in East Asia in 2002. Despite many challenges, East Timor remains struggling to gain the foothold of the global economy. After 15 years of independence, East Timor has maintained a positive growth rate despite the slow growth in the public sector and the private sector. The economy is highly dependent on oil exports and mining. Other economic industries such as consumer goods and telecommunications are still largely dominated by foreign participants.
