KUPANG, East Nusa Tenggara: A team of United Nations Security
Coordination delegates will soon visit West Timor in East Nusa Tenggara
for five days to assess security conditions there, the Indonesian Military
said on Wednesday.
The five delegates will recommend whether the United Nations should
revoke the alert status in West Timor, after the visit scheduled for May
13 to May 17, said Wirasakti Military commander Col. Moeswarno Moesanip,
who oversees security in East Nusa Tenggara.
The alert status was declared by the UN Security Council on Sept. 8
2000, two days after three UN High Commission for Refugees officials were
killed by alleged militiamen in Atambua, Belu.
