Stuff for Jendral Longuinos

The people that sell this equipment move in the same circles as people who sells guns.

ADF Teaches Jendral Longuinos How to Shoot Rifles

Is this really necessary? Or is it just a clumsy Australian tactic to influence the Jendral?

Jendral PNTL Hadomi Ninia Kilat Naruk.

The PNTL General Loves His Long Arms. (pictured in Indonesia, with alot of people, who can source alot of guns).

The United Nations Mission in Timor-Leste likes to tell everyone how great their "police project" is in Timor - and the handover is underway.

In private the UN, but not UNPOL, admit that it is a total mess.

The Centre for International Cooperation in New York asserts it is a dud.

Handing over what, and to whom?

Several days ago, TVTL carried footage of PNTL training in Atabae, Bobonaro. The training consisted of 150-200 PNTL (Battlhao Ordre Publiku), formerly UIR and URP officers. The training was lead by Jendral Longuinos (earlier noted on this blog here, here and here).

Not only was the training notable for it being lead by the Commander of Police personally (featuring camoflage painted face), but that it consisted of military training tactics using long arms designed to kill opponents, as opposed to arresting suspected criminals.

They like to train with rifles in central Dili as well.

Is UNPOL really in charge of anything at all when it comes to policing in Timor-Leste? Ask the Treeplanter.....

The TV footage was so alarming that many people in Dili are concerned, and the gossip mill has started. Member of Parliament Fernanda Borges even raised the matter in Parliament.

Police weapons are historically not very well controlled either. PNTL officers themselves often lose or loan them and cannot seem to get them back when they want to.

The FALINTIL-FDTL (the defence force are annoyed in the extreme).

Additionally, PNTL has announced plans to increase the force by 10% or another 300 officers.

Finally, and most alarmingly it is reported that Jendral Longuinos went on a shopping trip in java - Jakarta, Yogyakarta, Bandung and Solo. There he checked out uniforms and weapons. While nothing final yet - the Jendral is looking around for more guns.... Remember the same of company named SITREX based in Solo, Java.

Is this not how 2006 started? With HK33 Rifles in 2004?

Civil society is worried, members of parliament are concerned, F-FDTL is annoyed, does the head of the UN in Dili have an opinion? Probably not, he did not even raise a peep when Maternus Bere was released, leaving it to Ban Ki-Moon to make a statement. Then again he was here when PNTL bought HK33s, Steyrs, in the first place.

Global Dashboard Pokes UNPOL/UNMIT in the eye: again.

From those that brought attention to the UN's most useless document. Read here.......Blue Helmets and Brown Leaves.



It would seem that not only are UNPOL of suspect quality in building a reliable PNTL police force but it is also a failure at planting trees.


This tree planted by UNPOL Police Commissioner L. Carrilho died shortly after being given planted.  Lets hope his water works more magic on PNTL than it did on this sapling.

Carrilho - Pictured to the left with reliably sinister Police boss General Longuinos, and SRSG of Funny Hats Atul Khare it is a winning combination.  UNMIT has an executive policing mandate and a serious human rights mandate but could not keep Maternus Bere from being snatched from Becora by Jendral Longuinos cronies at Big Xanana request to be deposited safely into the hands of his friends in Farol...  They remain virtually mute....



Oh well, maybe the tree will sprout roots and grow, likely not - but we can hope for the best, or just decide to wear a Funny Hat and hope the sun does not shine to bright on all these Dili "dodges".

Jendral LM iha Wiki

Longuinhos Rabindranatha Tagore Domingos de Castro Monteiro, S.H. lahir di Maliana Distrik Bobonaro, 20 Desember 1968; umur 40 tahun) adalah Komandan Umum PNTL saat ini dengan pangkat Sub Komisaris (Sub-Comissário). Ia dilantik sebagai Komandan Umum PNTL pada tanggal 27 Maret 2009 tepat pada perayaan HUT PNTL yang kesembilan. Sebelumnya beliau menjabat sebagai Jaksa Agung (Procurador Geral da República). Penunjukkannya ini menuai banyak protes karena melanggar undang-undang PNTL yang menyebutkan bahwa pengangkatan komandan umum PNTL harus berasal dari dalam institusi PNTL sendiri.

General Monteiro's Private Army

It would appear as though the new Commander of PNTL is worried. He has appointed 26 PNTL officer to act as his own close protection unit!?
