Yes, Timor Leste has its own Post office in Dili, but there is still limited delivery of the items arriving. People/ org. can collect their post and operate PO boxes. But will your post ever arrive in Timor??? The traffic goes "via Darwin, N.T. Australia", so it is best to ADD the description of the above route at the bottom of the address. No extra cost and it is reliable! And be patient...
Dili is such a small city, and yet it is the capital of this desolate country. This is where most discoveries start, and it is immediately off the beaten path, as few are those who travel here.
The harbour was sadly empty before the referendum - it seemed the whole nation was holding its breath. This was weeks before the Indonesian army slashed and burned so much of the country as they made there way out of decades of occupation.
