Welcome to East Timor, one of the world’s newest countries, and for the intrepid few, an emerging tourism destination with unspoiled natural beauty.
    Hundreds of fish species have been recorded in East Timor’s waters, a diversity that’s enhanced by having very deep water so close to shore. East Timor is a former war zone and lacks a lot of basic infrastructure. After East Timor’s vote for independence in 1999, Indonesian militias rampaged through the island. The subsequent recovery effort has been painfully slow. There are many changes to be made if tourism run by expatriates is to boost East Timor’s meager economy. The government is anxious that new tourism developments don’t rain East Timor’s greatest asset, its natural beauty.
    So, as this new nation struggles to build its economy, it faces an age-old predicament, how to make the most of its natural assets without destroying them in the process.
