RE: Timor-Leste: One of the Least Visited Countries in the World
Good job highlighting a lesser known part of the world for many Westerners. There are some critical shipping lines that go right through that area, and in the 1990's the US Navy ran simulations on what might be necessary to keep those lanes open & stable should hostilities break out where the world's larger superpowers became involved.
Fortunately those eventualities did not come to pass. Those people have suffered enough and are due some peace & prosperity. Hopefully.
@shendai Thank you, I aim to show glimpses of the world that many people know nothing about. That is very interesting, I didn't hear or read anything about that while I was there and researching. Thanks for sharing! They have suffered enough and I hope that there is nothing but growth in their future.
