Timor-Leste's historic entry into ASEAN, combined with expanded international flights from Batik Air and Aero Dili, plus major airport and conference centre projects, positions the nation to capture a larger share of Southeast Asia's tourism market.
Timor-Leste's entry into ASEAN last month, combined with expanded international flight schedules and major infrastructure investments, positions the nation to capture a larger share of Southeast Asia's growing tourism market.
Batik Air added a third direct flight on Wednesdays between Kuala Lumpur and Dili. Aero Dili upgraded its flights to Xiamen from monthly to weekly.
Work on modernising the President Nicolau Lobato International Airport is well underway, and ground was broken on the Dili International Conference Centre at the old Dili Port.
