history

Bibissousso on an 18th century map of Timor

Bubussuso was one of the traditional empires of Timor, ruled by a liurai . It appears on a list as the Bibissuço of Afonso de Castro , a former governor of Portuguese Timor who listed 47 empires in 1868.

From Kicras , in the south of Fatuberlio, a large part of the last Australian soldiers on Timor were evacuated from the destroyer HMAS Arunta on the night of 9-10 January during the Second World War , together with 50 Portuguese .

The place Fatuberlio was 1976 a retreat area of ​​the FALINTIL , who fought against the Indonesian invaders. Here she founded a base de apoio , a resistance base that offered refuge for refugees from Turiscai, Maubisse , Aileu , Liquiçá and Dili .

The inhabitants of the Sucos Caicassa, Bubussuso and Fahinehan surrendered to the invaders in 1978 after the base de apoio had been destroyed. First they were assembled in the coastal region of Manufahi, then in Fahinehan under the control of the Indonesian Airborne Infantry Battalion 100 . Many of the civilians due to the lack of food and medicine. The internees were only allowed to look for food in the vicinity when accompanied by soldiers. They were not allowed to move more than a kilometer from the camp. Two men were shot for crossing the border. Residents of the three sucos were also interned in Turiscai .

In 1981 the residents of Bubussuso and Fahinehan were forcibly relocated to Oeto (Suco Dotik , Alas subdistrict) by the Indonesian occupiers because they were suspected of continuing to supply the FALINTIL with food. The fields were burned down by the Indonesian soldiers so that they could not use the resistance movement. The new place Weberec was founded for the resettled people . The residents of Caicassa were interned in a resettlement camp in Welaluhu. Since the people from the north of Fatuberlio were only used to their fertile fields as mountain dwellers, they had difficulties in the hot, swampy plains, which led to many deaths from hunger and malaria. They were resettled in the traditional areas by 1983.

On December 27, 1998, the pro-Indonesian militia Besi Merah Putih (BMP) was founded in Caicassa . This militia was considered one of the most feared in East Timor during the unrest before and after the 1999 independence referendum . She has been held responsible for hundreds of cases of arson, murder, torture and rape.

At the end of 2012, over 1,000 supporters of the CPD-RDTL organization under the leadership of General Coordinator Aitahan Matak occupied a large area in Welaluhu, near Weberec , which belongs to the local village community. The administrator of the sub-district Fatuberlio Tobias Hornay spoke of 7,000 members of the CPD-RDTL, the organization itself of as many as 11,000. The centenary of the Manufahi rebellion under the Liurai Boaventura was chosen as the occasion . Because they wore machetes and uniforms, the local population felt threatened by them and demanded that they leave. Aitahan Matak denied a criminal act. They want to operate in a cooperative agriculture to make East Timor independent of imports. There are also no illegal collections of money. You only accept donations to finance the project. The CPD-RDTL also denied that it stole and slaughtered local livestock. The local population complained that their fields had been occupied by the CPD-RDTL, while the organization spoke of unused land that had previously been used by the Indonesians for their resettlement program and therefore now belonged to the state. The government has not yet been able to solve the problem. President Taur Matan Ruak and the Cabinet demanded Prime Minister Xanana Gusmao on Police (PNTL) and soldiers of the Timor Leste Defense Force (F-FDTL) to send, in order to maintain public order. Army Commander-in-Chief Lere Anan Timor said he saw no danger from the CPD-RDTL and did not believe in criminal acts. The CPD-RDTL only failed to contact the local leaders and the village community before settling. In mid-March 2013, the remaining 800 CPD-RDTL members were brought back to their home districts by the Welaluhu police . The fields were given to local authorities.
