In the west and southwest, Beiseuc borders on the Indonesian district of East Kobalima ( Malaka administrative district , East Nusa Tenggara province ).

Near the south coast is the largest lake in Cova Lima, the Onu Laran .

Before the 2015 regional reform, Beiseuc had an area of ​​42.54 km². The reform brought the Suco territorial gains from Suco Lalawa, including We Taba , Walabaru and Tulaeduc Bawah , Lake Onu Laran and the border crossing to Indonesia in Motamasin . The area of ​​Beiseuc is now 66.01 km².

The overland road from Fatumea to Tilomar leads across the Suco from northwest to east . on it lie the places Maubesi ( Mauhesi ), Niquiir ( Nikir ) and Fatuc Metan ( Fatukmean ).

Residents

2267 inhabitants live in the Suco (2015), of which 1136 are men and 1131 women. The population density is 34.3 inhabitants / km². There are 540 households in the Suco. Over 60% of the population name Tetum Terik as their mother tongue. Over 30% speak Bunak and a minority speak Tetum Prasa .

history

The Bunak in Beiseuc and in the higher part of Lalawa came in a large stream of refugees from Bobonaro when they fled the Japanese army during World War II . Allied guerrilla units had operated against the Japanese from Lolotoe and the town of Bobonaro , whereupon the Japanese troops carried out retaliation against the civilian population in Bobonaro in August 1942, probably killing tens of thousands of people and displacing others.

On April 23, 1999, violence broke out in Beiseuc during the unrest around the independence referendum in East Timor . Three supporters of independence from Indonesia were murdered and another disappeared from the village of Niquiir. The Indonesian military and the pro-Indonesian militia Laksaur destroyed several houses in the village of Fatuc Metan and tortured residents. 950 residents fled to a church and a school. The local leader of the Laksaur militia, Miguel Mau , was therefore sentenced on November 26, 2003 to nine years in prison. The chief in command of Laksaur was Olivio Mendonça Moruk (also known as Alisio Mau ). The public labor officer was formerly Chefe de Suco von Beiseuc (then Foholulik ) but was fired for corruption and sexual abuse.
