Your speakers form the largest language group in the administrative office. The national language Kemak is also spoken. In Marobo ( Marabo ), the Kemak have mixed with the neighboring Bunak ethnic group for generations , which is why there are cultural differences between the Kemak of Marobo and the neighboring Atsabe. The French anthropologist Brigitte Renard-Clamagirand studied the local culture between 1966 and 1970.
The official language Tetum is widely used as a second language . Bahasa Indonesia was used during the occupation, the elders still speak Portuguese . This is also taught in schools.
history
The Marobo-Kemak had a small empire in the north of Bobonaro under the domination of the empire of Atsabe, on the periphery of which it was located. Governor José Celestino da Silva led an offensive against Marobo and Obulo in March 1895 in order to finally subdue them for Portugal.
In January 1976, Indonesian armed forces began occupying what was then the sub-district of Bobonaro. Residents of Ai-Assa and Malilait report that attacks by ground and air forces forced civilians to flee several times. Many died from wounds, disease and starvation. In 1979 the villagers gave up and surrendered to the Indonesian troops.
There have been repeated violent conflicts in the past between the sucos of Tapo, Oeleo and Leber, whereby the supra-regional conflicts between 1975 and 1999 also had an impact and led to fights and displacement. The pro-Indonesian militia Dadarus Merah Putih from Ritabou was active in these sucos in 1999 .
politics
The administrator of the administrative office is appointed by the central government in Dili. In 2015 it was Domingos Leto Lelo .
economy
71% of households grow corn, 69% cassava, 61% coconuts, 56% vegetables, 45% coffee and 10% rice.
During the Portuguese colonial period, a bath with hot springs, the Termas do Marobo , was built in Suco Ilat-Laun . The swimming pool, which is fed by the hot spring, still exists today and is now a tourist attraction.
