On 5 November 2014, Timor-Leste government and the Oecusse Regional Authority
launched the first major road and bridge projects from Sacato to Pante Makasar
and from the region’s center to Tono region.
“The
Implementation of the three projects is the starting point of the
infrastructure projects for the special zone for social market economy (ZEESM)”,
said Minister for Public Works, Gastão de Sousa, as reported by ANTARA News.
Minister
De Sousa was accompanied by the President of the Regional Authority of Oecusse,
Dr Mari Alkatiri during the laying of the first stone for the construction of
the Oecusse mega project on Wednesday (5/11/2014).
Timor-Leste
also contracted a Portuguese consultant, Dalan Consultant and TECPROENG, to be
supervisor for the project.
“Developing
road and the bridge are very important because ZEESM is a strategic decision
that benefits Timor-Leste in expanding its interests in the region and the Asia
Pacific”, de Sousa added.
