history

Monument to D. Aleixo Corte-Real

In 1902 an uprising against the Portuguese colonial rulers in Ainaro failed .

In 1912 the insurgent Liurai Dom Boaventura attacked the Portuguese military post in Ainaro during the Manufahi rebellion , but was repulsed with the support of Nai-Cau , the Liurai of Soro.

Ainaro was conquered by the Indonesians on February 23, 1975 .

During the Indonesian occupation between 1975 and 1999, Ainaro was a large military base for the Indonesian military. There were also many militiamen supported by the military , such as those of the Mahidi . As a result, more than 95% of Ainaros buildings were destroyed in the pre- and post-independence referendum on August 30, 1999. Many residents of the administrative office were displaced during this time and had to flee to West Timorese refugee camps.

On June 26, 2008, action and acting star Jackie Chan visited Ainaro in his role as UNICEF ambassador, where he showed his new film " The Forbidden Kingdom " to 600 viewers . Chan campaigned for a peaceful use of martial arts. East Timor suffered badly from criminal gangs calling themselves martial arts clubs .
