history

Between 1979 and 1981, residents of Bualale were forcibly relocated to a new settlement called Mulia in Laga by the Indonesian occupiers via the camp in Quelicai . It was feared that the villages that were close to the forests could support the FALINTIL . Bualale was the home village of David Alex , commander of the 2nd Company of the FALINTIL Red Brigades. The old houses were burned down after the evacuation, fields were destroyed and the cattle were killed. Several residents were injured. The inhabitants were brought to Mulia on trucks under heavy guard.

In 1981, 20 residents of Bualale were suspected of being part of the resistance. They were held prisoner for a year. They had to do forced labor. Five families who are said to have had contacts with FALINTIL were brought to the island of Atauro . A woman from Lialura died of starvation there. Three other families were also threatened with forced relocation.

In 1982, Quelicai residents were allowed to return to Bualale because they were starving in Quelicai. Here they could not create gardens for self-sufficiency. In addition, the Indonesians promised to stabilize the region by repatriating the population. A new, pro-Indonesian Chefe de Suco was installed by the Indonesians. Although Indonesian documents from the period confirm that Bualale worked well with the Indonesians on security and development issues, the occupiers believed that a network of resistance operated from Bualale. Various Indonesian civil security forces were stationed here. A man from Lialura was tortured to death.
