kena gangbang-ed by neighbors

Australia has been accused of “siphoning” millions of dollars a month in oil revenue that should belong to Timor-Leste, because the government is yet to ratify last year’s maritime border treaty.

Estimates suggest the revenue taken by Australia since the signing of the treaty now totals more than it has given to Timor-Leste in foreign aid, and more than Timor-Leste spends on health in a year.

The historic treaty, signed at the United Nations in March 2018, delimited a permanent maritime border to close the Timor Gap, and established a “special regime” area for sharing an untapped, multibillion-dollar gas field in the Timor Sea. The new border confirmed several former and operational fields were in Timorese territory, despite decades of Australia profiting from them.

At the time of the signing, Australia insisted the treaty would not take effect until both countries had ratified it. But the Australian government has now failed to ratify the deal before the announcement of the federal election. Critics have blamed this on the “dysfunction” of the Coalition government and 45th parliament.

The delay has meant that Australia continues to draw profits from the Bayu-Undan fields, which had previously been split 90-10 but was confirmed by the treaty to have belonged entirely to Timor-Leste.

Estimates vary between $350,000 and $2.9m per week that Australia is drawing by continuing to claim 10% of the Bayu-Undan revenue.

“This is pretty outrageous when it comes to one of our poorest neighbours,” said Steve Bracks, the former Victorian premier and founder of the Timor-Leste governance project. “They’re being denied that money because of the dysfunction of the Australian government and its insistence that parliament needs to ratify the treaty.”

Timor-Leste is the second-most oil-dependent country on earth but its reserves are expected to run out first. The government is scrambling to diversify its economy and stave off the crisis of losing the 90% share of its annual budget that come from the Petroleum Fund – primarily Bayu-Undan profits.

Skuadron 502 Fennec TLDM kawal perairan Sabah



Pemantauan keselamatan di perairan Sabah kini dapat diperkasakan dengan kehadiran helikopter jenis AS 555 SN Fennec milik Tentera Laut Diraja Malaysia (TLDM) yang akan beroperasi di Pangkalan TLDM Kota Kinabalu (PTKK) Teluk Sepangar.

Helikopter ini tiba di PTKK dari Markas Pemerintahan Armada Barat semalam dengan menggunakan kapal TLDM iaitu Kapal Diraja (KD) Mahawangsa.

Panglima Armada Timur, Laksamana Madya, Datuk Sabri Zali, berkata penggunaan aset udara seperti helikopter sangat berkesan dalam mengekang kemasukan pendatang asing tanpa izin (PATI) melalui jalan laut.

Selain itu, aktiviti penyeludupan barangan asas dan pencerobohan nelayan asing ke perairan Sabah juga dapat dikekang.

"Helikopter ini akan turut membantu mempertingkatkan keupayaan armada kapal TLDM melalui latihan bersama pesawat seperti Deck Landing Training (DLT), Winching Exercise (Winchex), Naval Gun Fire Support (NGS) Spotter dan lain-lain lagi," katanya dalam kenyataan hari ini.

Sementara itu, Sabri hari ini menerima kunjungan hormat daripada Pegawai Memerintah Skuadron 502 yang mengoperasikan Fennec, Komander TLDM Fairul Mohd Shukor di pejabat beliau di Teluk Sepanggar.

Kinda like this last photo on how it demonstrates the effectiveness of the camo pattern to the terrain.

Certainly I don't know to what extent the photo might've been touched up, if any at all. But nice nonetheless.

Ofc coz its a photoshoot by a photographer.

Almost 20 years of independence and heading to failed state.

The alternative is a possible fall of Timor Leste into a lawless failed state, a haven of criminals and terrorists right at the doorstep of Indonesia and Australia.

more reason to join us military?🤔
can enter uni for free (us uni expensive as hell yo) and now this. no need to go to thailand anymore

It will be UN problem. Only US can act as world police, anyone else must have US nod. That is what happened when Indon annexed TL and US keep silent.

No need....TL will be an example, how bad things will go if rebels secede.

West Timor has no oil and not rich , but it's already like heaven and earth...

TL is still stagnating....West Timor, also populated by Timor ethnics and Catholics developing steadily

This is in 2016...the disparity is even wider today
