... is inevitable that Timor Leste lies upon the region of Southeast Asia, which indefinitely fulfills the first requisite of joining ASEAN under the Charter. Figure 1 below displays the location of Timor Leste in the region of Southeast Asia: this step, as Timor Leste is the first case applying for membership during the Charter era. It is rather vague that said agreement should be done after one is officially admitted to as a Member State of ASEAN, or rather before in expressing such acceptance to accede and ratify the Charter, as the Charter is "subject to ratification by all Member States." ...

The best word to describe the geopolitical status of the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste is complex. It is a small insular territory, with a discontinuous land border, located in the Coral Triangle Region bordered by Wallace’s line and Lydekker’s line. This chapter discusses how the geopolitics of the Chinese ‘One Belt One Road’ initiative (B&RI) will impact Timor-Leste, in the context of the East Indies and Australasia, bearing in mind that in 2018, China became Timor-Leste’s second biggest trade partner (Retrieved on March 19, 2021, from http://www.forumchinaplp.org.mo/china-second-biggest-trading-partner-of-timor-leste-in-2018-ambassador/). It specifically addresses the relationship between Timor-Leste and the Maritime Silk Road strategy in the context of the People’s Republic of China and the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP). Furthermore, it discusses the role of the Forum for Economic and Trade Cooperation between China and Portuguese-speaking Countries, identifies Timor-Leste’s vital interests, explores the development of economic security options in light of Timor-Leste’s future accession to ASEAN, and consequently the context of the East Asian Community (ASEAN+ 3), the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (ASEAN+ 6), and the Asia–Pacific Economic Cooperation (ASEAN+ 8). It likewise considers Timor-Leste’s national development plan and investment projects such as Tibar Bay and the Tasi Mane. Finally, it makes concluding remarks in relation to a possible exercise of functional power vis-à-vis China; Timor-Leste as a young sovereign island state, located deep in the Indonesian archipelago between two regional powers (Australia and Indonesia), and as a CPLP member state.KeywordsGeopoliticsTimor-LesteB&RIASEANCPLPChinaSmall Island States

A Faculdade de Ciências Exatas foi criada na Universidade Nacional Timor Lorosa’e (UNTL) em 2015 propositadamente para atender aos problemas de aprendizagem das ciências exatas registadas ao nível nacional onde muitos estudantes graduados dos ensinos secundários nacionais ainda apresentam elevada tendência de mecanização dos conceitos e dificuldades de raciocínio lógico. A maioria dos estudantes que entram pela primeira vez na Faculdade de ciências exatas demonstra anualmente dificuldades em aprovar-se nas avaliações feitas às disciplinas de Matemática, Física e Química cujos conteúdos são a recapitulação dos do ensino secundário. Aliás, nestas áreas científicas, a taxa média de aprovação fica muito abaixo dos 40%. Esta pesquisa pretende estudar as influências dos fatores género e escola de origem no desempenho dos estudantes na FCE, através da análise multivariada de variâncias de duas vias (MANOVA) feita no SPSS versão 20. As informações relevantes são fornecidas por cada aluno e pela própria faculdade. Os resultados demonstram que apenas a escola de origem (privado ou publico) afeta o desempenho académico dos estudantes, sendo o efeito positivo para as escolas privadas. Outro fator não tem influência e a interação entre eles também não. Este resultado implica que o fator escola de origem deve ser tido em conta em qualquer política de melhorias de ensino e aprendizagem no sistema educativo timorense.
