Before the 2015 territorial reform, Labarai had an area of 80.22 km². Now there are 84.91 km². The Suco forms the center of the Suai administrative office and extends from its northern border to the Timor Sea in the south. To the east is the Suco Beco , southwest of Camenaça . In the west is the administrative office of Maucatar with its sucos Belecasac , Ogues and Matai . To the north is the Lolotoe administrative office of the municipality of Bobonaro , with its sucos grandpa and lupal . The river Nabuk , which rises in Labarai, forms the border with Matai for a long distance, while the Karautun flows on the southern border with Camenaça . Both later together form the Camenaça River . The Foura forms the border to Beco for the most part . The Raiketan comes from Bobonaro and initially follows the border from Labarai to Belecasac, crosses Labarai at a narrow point and then forms the northeast border of Camenaça to Labarai.
From Camenaça comes the southern coastal road, one of the most important traffic routes in the country. It leads over two bridges over the rivers Karautun and Nabuk, crosses the places Sanfuc (Sanfuk) (Suco Camenaça) and Dais (Suco Labarai) and after the bridge over the Raiketan continues through the Suco Labarai, past the places Holba and Meop until it finally leads over the bridge over the Foura into the Suco Beco.
On the west bank of the Nabuk, near Sanfuc, lies the village of Holbelis , which is sometimes called after the Suco Labarai. There is a large cave here where bats and monkeys live. In the past the old animistic religion was practiced here. Engravings in the rocks at the entrance to the cave testify to the worship of gods and spirits. There are also some traditional houses here.
There are primary schools in Holbelis ( Escola Primaria Labarai ), Dais and Holba / Meop, where there is also a helicopter landing pad for emergencies. To the west of Holbelis is Suai Airport .
In the Suco there are the five Aldeias Bonuc ( Bonuk ), Holba , Meop , Mucbelis and Roec .

The politician Adriano do Nascimento was born in Holbelis in 1970.
history
The bunak settlements from Suai to Zumalai were only recently established. Before that, the region was uninhabited. These start-ups still have relationships with their places of origin. Some places were created a few generations ago. Other settlements have only existed since the Indonesian occupation, when entire villages were resettled from the north along the southern coastal road around Zumalai.
A base de apoio was established in Suco Labarai in 1976 , in which FRETILIN settled refugees before the Indonesian invasion. The base was later destroyed by the Indonesian forces.
In the context of the independence referendum in East Timor in 1999 , acts of violence also occurred in Labarai. In Dais, a group of students from the University of East Timor (UNTIM) was attacked on April 13, 1999 by the pro-Indonesian militia Mahidi . The student João da Silva Ximenes was slain. Bernardino Simão , a student and independence activist , was abducted to Zumalai and later disappeared.
