VOV1 - Ngày 20/7/2026, tại thủ đô Dili, Đại biện Việt Nam tại Timor-Leste Phạm Bình Đàm đã có cuộc gặp và làm việc với Phó Thủ tướng, Bộ trưởng Điều phối các vấn đề xã hội, kiêm Bộ trưởng Phát triển nông thôn và Nhà ở cộng đồng Timor-Leste Mariano Assanami Sabino Lopes.Hai bên trao đổi các biện pháp thúc đẩy hợp tác trong lĩnh vực an ninh lương thực, phát triển nông thôn, khai thác bền vững tài nguyên biển và đào tạo nguồn nhân lực. Cuộc gặp diễn ra trong bối cảnh Timor-Leste đang chú trọng nâng cao năng lực sản xuất trong nước, từng bước giảm phụ thuộc vào nhập khẩu và khai thác hiệu quả hơn tiềm năng biển. Trao đổi tại cuộc gặp, Phó Thủ tướng Mariano Assanami Sabino cho biết sản xuất trong nước hiện mới đáp ứng khoảng 40% nhu cầu lương thực của Timor-Leste. Trong bối cảnh đó, nâng cao năng lực sản xuất không chỉ nhằm tăng mức độ tự chủ về lương thực, mà còn gắn chặt với các mục tiêu phát triển xã hội như cải thiện dinh dưỡng, giảm nghèo, tạo việc làm và bảo đảm thu nhập ổn định cho hộ gia đình ở khu vực nông thôn.Chia sẻ kinh nghiệm phát triển của Việt Nam, Đại biện Phạm Bình Đàm nhấn mạnh an ninh lương thực là một trong những nền tảng quan trọng của ổn định và phát triển xã hội. Theo Đại biện, hợp tác lương thực giữa hai nước có thể được triển khai theo hai hướng bổ trợ lẫn nhau. Trước mắt, Việt Nam tiếp tục góp phần bảo đảm nguồn cung gạo ổn định, chất lượng và phù hợp với nhu cầu của thị trường Timor-Leste, qua đó duy trì vai trò của gạo trong trao đổi thương mại song phương.Về lâu dài, hợp tác cần được mở rộng từ thương mại sang hỗ trợ phát triển năng lực sản xuất tại chỗ. Việt Nam sẵn sàng chia sẻ kinh nghiệm về giống cây trồng, kỹ thuật canh tác, thủy lợi, cơ giới hóa, bảo quản sau thu hoạch và xây dựng chuỗi giá trị nông sản.Trao đổi về hướng hợp tác, Đại biện Phạm Bình Đàm cho rằng doanh nghiệp Việt Nam có nhiều thế mạnh phù hợp với nhu cầu phát triển ngành thủy sản của Timor-Leste, từ đóng tàu, chuyển giao kỹ thuật khai thác và nuôi trồng, đến đầu tư cơ sở bảo quản, kho lạnh và chế biến. Trên cơ sở đó, doanh nghiệp hai nước có thể nghiên cứu xây dựng các mô hình hợp tác sản xuất phù hợp tại Timor-Leste, gắn đầu tư với tuyển dụng, đào tạo lao động địa phương và từng bước chuyển giao kỹ thuật cho người dân tại các địa phương ven biển.Chiều cùng ngày, Đại biện Phạm Bình Đàm đã dự lễ hạ thủy các tàu cá bán công nghiệp của Timor-Leste do Bộ Nông nghiệp, Chăn nuôi, Thủy sản và Lâm nghiệp Timor-Leste chủ trì. Trong số 03 tàu được hạ thủy, có tàu do doanh nghiệp Việt Nam tham gia góp vốn đóng mới và đưa vào khai thác, cho thấy doanh nghiệp Việt Nam tại địa bàn đang từng bước chuyển từ thương mại sang đầu tư sản xuất trong lĩnh vực này.Để những dự án như vậy vận hành hiệu quả và có thể nhân rộng, bài toán nguồn nhân lực được hai bên đặc biệt coi trọng. Phó Thủ tướng Mariano Assanami Sabino Lopes cho biết Timor-Leste có lực lượng lao động trẻ dồi dào, song việc thiếu kỹ năng chuyên môn đang hạn chế khả năng đáp ứng nhu cầu của thị trường và thu hút các dự án sản xuất mới. Đại biện Phạm Bình Đàm khẳng định Việt Nam sẵn sàng phối hợp với Timor-Leste trong đào tạo nghề và nâng cao năng lực cho người lao động, gắn nội dung đào tạo với nhu cầu thực tế của các ngành sản xuất. Đây cũng là một hướng triển khai cụ thể các thỏa thuận hợp tác giáo dục mà hai nước đã ký kết trong khuôn khổ chuyến thăm Việt Nam của Thủ tướng Timor-Leste Kay Rala Xanana Gusmão vào tháng 6/2026.Hai bên nhất trí tiếp tục duy trì trao đổi, sớm xác định các nội dung ưu tiên để triển khai thành những chương trình hợp tác cụ thể. Hợp tác về an ninh lương thực cần được triển khai đồng bộ với phát triển nông thôn, mở rộng sinh kế, tạo việc làm và nâng cao chất lượng nguồn nhân lực, qua đó góp phần củng cố nền tảng ổn định và phát triển lâu dài tại Timor-Leste./.Phạm Hà/VOV JakartaViệt Nam và Timor-Leste mở hướng hợp tác về an ninh lương thực và thủy hải sản

A deadly speedboat accident near Phu Quoc raises once more the issue of marine safety in tourism, while Vietnam steps up attempts to attract more Muslim tourists. New revelations about scam centres in Timor Leste and Cambodia raise more questions than answers, and we finish in Thailand where an island network of seaplanes is ready for take-off, or is it?

South and Southeast Asia face a different challenge to many developed economies. As the regions continue to grow, so too does demand for energy, transport and industry. The question is whether that growth can be powered by cleaner technologies from the start. In the second of our episodes recorded from Singapore, Michael meets Marie Cheong, founding partner at 100x100, a climate tech venture builder and VC for South and Southeast Asia. Previously, Marie co-founded WaveMaker Impact, where she helped launch climate startups addressing some of the region's biggest opportunities for decarbonisation. Marie explains why climate innovation in emerging South Asian markets requires a different approach. They discuss investing across the region, growing energy demand, using AI to decarbonise manufacturing, and why there are no "silver bullet" solutions to climate change. Marie also takes Michael to the People Bee Hoon noodle factory, which makes rice vermicelli noodles to see how Desmond Goh, the factory's director is using AI to improve his operations. Michael meets to Desmond and Muun AI founder Kathryn Knight about how better use of data can help cut emissions and waste. And at the end of the episode, a very special announcement… stay tuned. Topics Include Building climate startups across South and Southeast Asia Why climate investing needs more than "silver bullet" technologies The biggest opportunities for climate innovation in emerging Asian markets Solving regional pain points as the key to success Can Southeast Asia grow without burning more coal?

Dibawakan oleh Suster Petri Canisia, CIJ dan Suster Roberta, CIJ dari Komunitas Suster CIJ Santa Maria Assumpta Dili, di Keuskupan Agung Dili, Timor Leste. Hosea 10: 1-3.7-8.12; Mazmur tg 105: 2-3.4-5.6-7; Matius 10: 1-7.MENEMUKAN YANG HILANG          Tema renungan kita pada hari ini ialah: Menemukan Yang Hilang. Pada suatuketika kepala Setan menghadap Tuhan Allah. Ia mengajukan protes, bahwa setiapkali yang diutus ke dalam dunia ialah para malaikat, kemudian para nabi danpuncaknya Putra Allah sendiri. Kepala Setan ini mendesak supaya dirinya atauwakil-wakilnya dapat diberikan juga kesempatan untuk diutus.  Tetapi Tuhan Allah tetap tidak akan memenuhi tuntutan Setan. Alasannyaialah karena tugas utama Setan ialah merusak dan menghilangkan yang menjadimilik Tuhan, sedangkan tugas Tuhan dan para utusannya ialah menemukan manusiadan ciptaan Tuhan lainnya yang telah hilang karena ulahnya Setan. Yang jelas,kalau diberi kebebasan dan kesempatan, Setan akan menjadi lebih menikmatitugasnya itu, dan membawa kerugian bagi Tuhan Allah sendiri.  Yesus Kristus adalah Tuhan dan Putra Allah yang mencari dan menemukan yanghilang. Tugas itu ia lakukan selama pekerjaan-pekerjaan publik-Nya. Tugas ini dilanjutkanoleh para rasul yang diutus atas nama-Nya. Yesus berpesan kepada mereka untukfokus kepada domba-domba yang hilang dari kalangan Israel. Yang mereka lakukanialah semua perbuatan baik yang telah Yesus perbuat. Apa yang diperintahkan oleh Tuhan kepada kedua belas rasul ini terkaitdengan kedua belas suku Israel. Mereka adalah umat pilihan yang menerima danmeneruskan ajaran Tuhan Allah bagi segenap umat manusia. Tetapi mereka bukanpenguasa segala kebenaran. Mereka dipilih untuk menjadi pengantaraperbuatan-perbuatan Tuhan Allah yang besar. Yesus Kristus adalah utusan BapaAllah sendiri yang datang ke dunia melalui bangsa pilihan ini. Jadi Tuhan Yesus ingin supaya kedua belas rasul itu dapat mewujudkan misiuntuk menyatukan suku-suku Israel. Mereka harus memperkuat persekutuan yanglebih kuat sebagai satu bangsa yang diberkati oleh Allah, bangsa pilihan-Nya.Yesus Kristus ingin menjadikan suatu persekutuan yang kuat, yang mengakarkansemua kebenaran dari Allah dan matang untuk melanjutkan misi itu ke seluruhdunia. Ini direalisasikan dengan berdirinya Gereja setelah Yesus naik ke surga.Kini tugas Gereja ialah membuat Kristus dan Injil-Nya dikenal di seluruh bangsadi dalam dunia ini. Warta gembira bagi kita hari ini ialah hendaknya kita terlebih dahulumenjadikan diri kita kuat, matang, mampu dan unggul sebagai pengikut Kristus,sebelum kita dapat membawa sesama atau saudara kita datang berjumpa denganTuhan. Kita hendaknya tidak boleh seperti orang Farisi yang mampu mengajarkandan berbicara tetapi membuat orang-orang jauh dari Tuhan. Kita harus berangkatdari diri kita, barulah kita mencapai dan membimbing orang lain.Marilah kita berdoa.Dalam nama Bapa.... Ya Tuhan Yesus Kristus, ajarilah kami untuk menjadi teladanyang sesungguhnya bagi sesama kami di dalam kata dan perbuatan kami setiaphari. Kemuliaan kepada Bapa dan Putra dan Roh Kudus ...

VOV1 - Trong bối cảnh ngày càng nhiều sức ép liên quan đến dòng người nhập cư và sinh viên quốc tế, chính phủ Australia vừa thông báo cập nhật một số quy định với sinh viên quốc tế.Bộ trưởng Giáo dục Australia Jason Clare vừa ra thông báo cho biết, trong năm 2027 sẽ giữ nguyên số lượng sinh viên quốc tế đến nước này học như năm 2026 ở mức 295 nghìn em, tức là thấp hơn 8% so với năm 2025 và thấp hơn 13% so với giai đoạn trước đại dịch Covid-19.Các cơ sở đào tạo sẽ được thông báo cụ thể về số lượng sinh viên quốc tế mà họ được nhận trong năm 2027. Trong đó các cơ sở ở vùng nông thôn sẽ được ưu tiên nhận nhiều sinh viên quốc tế để chia sẻ lơi ích trong ngành này.Không chỉ giữ nguyên số lượng sinh viên quốc tế, Australia còn vừa tăng phí thị thực với sinh viên quốc tế và thị thực cho sinh viên sau khi tốt nghiệp thêm khoảng 25%. Tuy vậy Australia áp dụng mức phí thị thực thấp hơn với sinh viên đến từ các nước Thái Bình Dương, Timor Leste, sinh viên các quốc gia thành viên ASEAN, sinh viên các khóa học tiếng Anh và các khóa học không cấp bằng. Trong đó các sinh viên từ Thái Bình Dương, Timor Leste và những người nhận được học bổng chính phủ Australia vẫn tiếp tục được ưu tiên khi cấp thị thực đến nước này.Bên cạnh đó, Australia tiếp tục siết chặt việc cấp thị thực với sinh viên các khóa học nghề và kiểm tra tính liêm chính của các đối tượng này để đảm bảo không bị lợi dụng vào mục đích khác.Đồng thời, chính phủ Australia sẽ tiếp tục xử lý nghiêm các cơ sở giáo dục có hành vi sai trái và thúc đẩy việc cải thiện trải nghiệm học tập cho sinh viên trong nước và quốc tế.Mục đích của những thay đổi này là nhằm duy trì số lượng sinh viên quốc tế ở mức bền vững, đảm bảo uy tính của ngành giáo dục quốc tế của Australia, gia tăng tính cạnh tranh toàn cầu và tạo ra nhiều giá trị hơn cho nước này.Bộ trưởng Giáo dục Jason Clare khẳng định giáo dục quốc tế là một lĩnh vực rất quan trọng đối với Australia nên nước này cần phải quản lý một cách bền vững và chính sách của chính phủ cần đảm bảo rằng giáo dục quốc tế có thể hỗ trợ tốt sinh viên, các trường đại học và lợi ích của nước này./.Việt Nga/VOV AustraliaĐại học New South Wales là một trong những trường có đông sinh viên quốc tế.

Parque nacional Nino Konis Santana "ganha nova dimensão" como reserva da biosfera da UNESCO

Há quase 20 anos declarado como parque nacional, o parque Nino Konis Santana e as suas imediações, em Timor-Leste, foram considerados pelas UNESCO como um espaço de diversidade ecológica e cultural distinguido com título de reserva da biosfera. Esta distinção vai permitir troca de experiência, mais tecnologia e mais oportunidades para as populações locais. O parque nacional Nino Konis Santana, em Timor-Leste, foi classificado no início de Junho como Reserva da Biosfera da UNESCO, a primeira do país. O parque foi estabelecido em 2008 e incluiu uma área de mais de 123 mil hectares, incluindo floresta, mangais e uma parte marítima, que integra o Triângulo de Coral, o centro mundial com maior diversidade de corais e peixes de recife. Este é também um parque com um significado especial para os timorenses, já que carrega o nome de Nino Konis Santana, chefe da guerrilha FALINTIL, braço armado da FRETILIN, e resistente face à ocupação da Indonésia. Este reconhecimento pela UNESCO vai ajudar na preservação deste parque, mas também dar mais oportunidades às populações que vivem à sua volta, como explicou António de Sousa Abreu, director da Divisão de Ecologia e Ciências da Terra, da UNESCO, em entrevista à RFI. "Este parque é uma referência porque tem o nome de um herói nacional e, portanto, é, do ponto de vista cultural, do ponto de vista até político, se quisermos um elemento muito simbólico no país do ponto de vista natural. É também uma área protegida à escala nacional, com relevância internacional, uma vez que alberga uma grande diversidade de ecossistemas muito importantes e ao nível da biodiversidade, também ao nível de específico. Elementos muito importantes, portanto, sejam ecossistemas terrestres, costeiros, marinhos, desde florestas tropicais, secas, mangais, savanas, recifes de coral e zonas húmidas. Ou seja, há um trabalho já com alguns anos que Timor Leste fez em torno de uma área protegida que agora ganha uma dimensão maior e que extravasa a tradicional competência e funções de um parque. Não é o parque que é reserva da Biosfera. O parque é o motivo ao redor do qual houve uma candidatura para uma Reserva da Biosfera, que é uma classificação diferente de um parque e não é um prémio, é uma validação do trabalho que foi feito", detalhou. As reservas da biosfera da UNESCO são locais de "aprendizagem de desenvolvimento sustentável" e que permitem compreender como de, um lado, se pode gerir a biodiversidade e, por outro, ter em conta as populações autóctones e prevenir conflitos. Este reconhecimento serve assim para promover também a educação e envolver diferentes actores no futuro do parque Nino Konis Santana. "A visão que Timor-Leste assumiu implica promover a educação, a sensibilização, implica dialogar e meter na mesma mesa partes que tradicionalmente não se juntam, por exemplo, o sector privado que traz o desenvolvimento puro e duro, sem perda de identidade natural e cultural, uma vez que a natureza e a cultura fazem parte e moldam-se a si próprios. A forma, como há milhares de anos se ocupa aquele território, não obstaculizou que os valores naturais ainda lá estejam. Queremos manter o grau de conservação. Timor assumiu isso. Queremos promover sociedades mais informadas, mas também acrescentar valor", explicou António de Sousa Abreu. Esta é a primeira reserva da Biosfera em solo timorense e há actualmente 784 reservas em todo o Mundo, espalhadas por mais de 140 países, abrangendo mais de um milhão de quilometros quadrados.

Sunda Energy (AIM:SNDA) CEO Andy Butler joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss the latest update on the Chuditch Production Sharing Contract in Timor-Leste and what it means for the company's development plans. Butler explained that after the current PSC phase expired, Sunda had sought an extension to move into drilling, but received a termination notice instead, creating uncertainty around the project. He outlined what prevented drilling last year, with logistical and local content issues ultimately raising health and safety concerns. "We were ready to do it last year, and it was out of our control," he said. The interview also covered efforts to secure alternative drilling arrangements, including a collaboration with Finder Energy, as part of Sunda's broader push to diversify its portfolio. Butler pointed to progress in New Zealand, where an acquisition process and regulatory approvals are advancing, and in the Philippines, where technical studies and seismic processing are underway. He said Sunda plans to engage constructively with Timor-Leste's regulator to clarify its position, while continuing to build value through its other assets.

VOV1 - Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) do Việt Nam đăng cai tổ chức bước sang năm thứ 3, đã khẳng định vị thế là nền tảng đối thoại chiến lược, nơi định hình lộ trình phát triển bền vững cho khu vực đến năm 2045 và xa hơn nữa.“Với vai trò chủ nhà, Việt Nam không chỉ thể hiện năng lực tổ chức xuất sắc mà còn dẫn dắt hiệu quả các cuộc thảo luận đa phương về hòa bình và đổi mới” - Đây là đánh giá của bạn bè quốc tế dành cho Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) cũng như vai trò và vị thế của Việt Nam. Trực tiếp tham gia và tháp tùng Tổng thống José Ramos-Horta trình bày bài phát biểu chính vào năm ngoái, Đại sứ Timor-Leste tại Việt Nam João Pereira đánh giá, điểm nổi bật của Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) 2026 là việc mở rộng quy mô thảo luận sang các đại diện chính đảng và lãnh đạo các thành phố trong khu vực, tạo nên các cuộc đối thoại đa dạng giữa lãnh đạo ASEAN và các đối tác.“Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) không chỉ là một cuộc họp thông thường mà là một nền tảng đối thoại thu hút nhiều kênh đại diện khác nhau; thúc đẩy tư duy hướng về tương lai trước các thách thức dài hạn như an ninh, chuyển đổi số và phát triển bền vững”. Với Đại sứ Timor-Leste, đây là nền tảng mạnh mẽ để quy tụ các tầm nhìn, chính sách và chiến lược, giúp các nhà lãnh đạo cùng nhau xác lập cam kết cho Tầm nhìn ASEAN 2045 và chủ động ứng phó với các bất ổn khu vực cũng như toàn cầu hiện nay.Cùng quan điểm, Đại sứ Philippines tại Việt Nam Francisco Noel R. Fernandez III nhận định, trong khi các hội nghị truyền thống thường tập trung xử lý các vấn đề hiện tại, Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) mang sứ mệnh thảo luận về những gì sẽ diễn ra trong tương lai. Đồng thời, việc đăng cai AFF đã khẳng định vị thế ngày càng quan trọng của Việt Nam trong các diễn đàn đa phương.“Việc Việt Nam duy trì đăng cai tổ chức Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN (AFF) không chỉ khẳng định vị thế dẫn dắt mà còn đặt ra yêu cầu quan trọng cho các nhà lãnh đạo: phải nhìn nhận nghiêm túc về lộ trình tương lai của khối trong 10-20 năm tới, nhất là khi khối đã có thêm thành viên thứ 11 là Timor-Leste”. Theo Đại sứ Philippines, Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN sẽ tăng cường hơn nữa năng lực dự báo chiến lược của ASEAN, vốn đã được chứng minh thông qua việc thiết lập khung pháp lý chia sẻ năng lượng và kết nối lưới điện trước các biến động toàn cầu thời gian qua. Đại sứ cũng đề cao sự tin cậy lẫn nhau, khẳng định sức mạnh ASEAN nằm ở sự đoàn kết, không quốc gia nào phải đơn độc trước khó khăn - những giá trị sẽ tiếp tục được nhấn mạnh tại Diễn đàn Tương lai ASEAN năm nay.Đánh giá cao không gian đối thoại mở và bao trùm mà Việt Nam kiến tạo, Đại sứ Thái Lan Urawadee Sriphiromya lại đặc biệt ấn tượng với chủ đề của Diễn đàn năm nay: “Tôi đặc biệt ấn tượng với chủ đề của diễn đàn năm 2026: “Cùng nhau kiến tạo tương lai chung: Hòa bình, Thịnh vượng và Phát triển lấy con người làm trung tâm”. Chủ đề này rất phù hợp với bối cảnh hiện nay, khi chúng ta cần phải đặt người dân vào vị trí trung tâm của mọi quá trình phát triển”.Đại sứ Thái Lan cũng hoan nghênh vai trò của Hà Nội khi lần đầu tiên đăng cai Hội nghị Lãnh đạo các Thành phố ASEAN. Theo Đại sứ, Hà Nội đang sở hữu vị thế thuận lợi khi vừa đạt tiến bộ lớn trong hiện đại hóa đô thị, quản trị số, vừa bảo tồn được bản sắc văn hóa lâu đời. Sự kiện này chứng minh cam kết của Việt Nam trong việc thúc đẩy hợp tác thực chất giữa các đô thị, mang lại lợi ích trực tiếp cho người dân trong nhiều năm tới./.Phương HoaĐại sứ Timor-Leste tại Việt Nam João Pereira

Đặc biệt trụ cột Cộng đồng Chính trị-An ninh ASEAN (APSC), Philippines đang nỗ lực hướng tới việc thông qua 3 văn kiện kết quả quan trọng để các nhà lãnh đạo ASEAN xem xét.“Thứ nhất, Nghị định thư Cebu sửa đổi Hiến chương ASEAN, đánh dấu lần đầu tiên sửa đổi kể từ khi được ký kết vào năm 2007. Điều này phản ánh sự tăng cường liên tục về mặt thể chế của ASEAN, đặc biệt trong việc hỗ trợ quá trình hội nhập hoàn toàn của Timor-Leste vào khu vực.Thứ hai, Tuyên bố của các nhà lãnh đạo ASEAN về hợp tác hàng hải, nhấn mạnh cam kết của khu vực trong việc thúc đẩy hợp tác hàng hải thông qua các sáng kiến ​​cụ thể như việc đưa Diễn đàn Cảnh sát biển ASEAN thành cơ quan chuyên ngành của ASEAN và đề xuất thành lập Trung tâm Hàng hải ASEAN tại Philippines”.Ngoài ra, một văn kiện kết quả khác cần được thông qua là Tuyên bố của các nhà lãnh đạo ASEAN về ứng phó với cuộc khủng hoảng Trung Đông, xuất phát từ hai cuộc họp đặc biệt của các Bộ trưởng Ngoại giao ASEAN do Philippines triệu tập vào tháng 3 và tháng 4 vừa qua, nhằm ứng phó với cuộc xung đột đang diễn ra ở Trung Đông. Tuyên bố nêu rõ phản ứng tập thể của ASEAN đối với cuộc khủng hoảng, đồng thời xây dựng nền tảng cho sự phối hợp mạnh mẽ hơn trong các tình huống khẩn cấp trong tương lai.Ông Dominic Xavier Imperial cũng nhấn mạnh, trong bối cảnh bất ổn địa chính trị ngày càng gia tăng và những thách thức khu vực đang thay đổi, Philippines coi trọng tầm quan trọng của việc củng cố quyền tự chủ chiến lược khu vực dựa trên vai trò trung tâm của ASEAN và tái khẳng định quyết tâm chung đối với các nguyên tắc lâu đời của luật pháp quốc tế. Tại Hội nghị cấp cao ASEAN lần này Philippines sẽ tập trung vào ba ưu tiên quan trọng là an ninh năng lượng, an ninh lương thực và an toàn cho công dân cộng đồng ASEAN./.Philippines khai trương Trung tâm Truyền thông Quốc tế phục vụ Hội nghị cấp cao ASEAN lần thứ 48 (Ban tổ chức ASEAN)

“What might it mean to take the dead seriously as political actors?” asks Lia Kent in this exciting new contribution to critical human rights scholarship The Unruly Dead: Spirits, Memory, and State Formation in Timor-Leste (U Wisconsin Press, 2024). In Timor-Leste, a new nation-state that experienced centuries of European colonialism before a violent occupation by Indonesia from 1975 to 1999, the dead are active participants in social and political life who continue to operate within familial structures of obligation and commitment. On individual, local, and national levels, Timor-Leste is invested in various forms of memory work, including memorialization, exhumation, reburial, and commemoration of the occupation's victims. Such practices enliven the dead, allowing them to forge new relationships with the living and unsettling the state-building logics that seek to contain and control them. With generous, careful ethnography and incisive analysis, Kent challenges comfortable, linear narratives of transitional justice and argues that this memory work is reshaping the East Timorese social and political order—a process in which the dead are active, and sometimes disruptive, participants. Community ties and even the landscape itself are imbued with their presence and demands, and the horrific scale of mass death in recent times—up to a third of the population perished during the Indonesian occupation—means Timor-Leste's dead have real, significant power in the country's efforts to remember, recover, and reestablish itself.

Fruitful domestic and international medical missions overlap in multiple ways. Both require cross-cultural skills, a willingness to work with limited resources, courage in the face of potentially dangerous situations, and possible disapproval from friends and family. Each is excellent preparation for the other. Many international workers spend furlough time working in American Christian health centers--and vice-versa.

Episode #505: In February, Timor-Leste opened judicial proceedings against Myanmar's military regime, marking the first time one ASEAN member has initiated legal action against another. Supporting the case, the Chin Human Rights Organization (CHRO) submitted evidence documenting serious international crimes, including the rape of a pregnant woman, the massacre of ten civilians, an airstrike on a hospital, the killing of Christian religious leaders, and repeated attacks on churches.CHRO Executive Director Salai Za Uk Ling joins the podcast, and argues that because Myanmar's legal system offers little protection for minority groups, international mechanisms have become essential. “Because no domestic laws really protect minority groups inside Myanmar, utilizing internationally accepted human rights standards and instruments becomes our only means by which we can promote awareness and try to address the human rights issues of people across Myanmar.”mv8r3g5fInternational legal action can serve several purposes, he explains. While pursuing long-term justice through legal processes, it also raises global awareness, increases political pressure on the regime, and may help deter future crimes. For people inside Myanmar, these efforts also carry symbolic weight. “We're talking about ordinary people all across Myanmar. Everyone is in one way or another, directly or indirectly, affected by the regime's actions,” Za Uk says. Even small recognition of their suffering can provide a sense that the world has not forgotten them.In Chin State, landmines are one element of a broader pattern of violence. Za Uk describes them as part of a systematic campaign to undermine communities in areas where resistance forces have driven out the military.“Landmines are just a piece of the larger puzzle of the regime trying to destroy lives that could be otherwise thriving in places that have been liberated,” he says. Used alongside indiscriminate airstrikes and other attacks on civilians, such tactics amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity.More than half of Chin State's population has been displaced since the 2021 coup. As families struggle to survive amid constant air attacks and hidden landmines, Za Uk warns the threat could become a long-term crisis. “A landmine is like a soldier that never sleeps,” he says. “And unfortunately, the target has been civilians.”
