history
Caimauc Quic used to be one of the two traditional kingdoms in Remexio under the name Caimau , which were ruled by a Liurai .
During the Second World War , Portuguese Timor was occupied by the Japanese and the site of the Battle of Timor , in which Australian commandos and part of the population fought against the occupiers using guerrilla tactics . On May 22, 1942, a Japanese major who was called the Tiger of Singapore and his unit at Remexio were ambushed by Australians with Timorese and Portuguese helpers. The tiger was killed.
In 1976 Remexio was a retreat 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 Remexio, Laclo, Aileu and Dili. There was also a re-education camp ( Renal ) in Remexio , where FALINTIL suspects were detained. Due to poor care, some of the inmates died. The base was later destroyed by the Indonesians.
From 1978 to the end of 1979 there was an Indonesian camp near Remexio for East Timorese who were supposed to be relocated by the occupiers for better control. 4,000 people lived here in catastrophic conditions that journalists documented. They had visited the camp together with eleven foreign ambassadors and the then Indonesian Foreign Minister Mochtar Kusumaatmadja on September 6th and 7th, 1978. Photos of malnourished adults and children from the camp were published in newspapers around the world. Many people died of starvation and diarrhea. Between 1970 and 1980, Remexio's population decreased by 37.8% from 7851 to 4880.
On September 6, 1999, the entire administration office was devastated by pro-Indonesian militias . Just a few days earlier, the people of East Timor had voted in a referendum for independence from Indonesia . Houses and public facilities such as schools were burned down. The water pipe and the power generators were also destroyed.
