    Message from Craras
  • 0:07 - 0:10
    Naha Susuk and Liki Nahak speaking on behalf of the family living in Naibonat, Kupang.
  • 0:12 - 0:19
    My name is Naha susuk, I want to let my sister Hare Susuk know,
  • 0:19 - 0:22
    don't be afraid,
  • 0:22 - 0:29
    don't listen to news that is unclear,
  • 0:29 - 0:32
    because our leaders have divided us,
  • 0:32 - 0:43
    and for that reason I look after our children on my own.
  • 0:49 - 0:57
    Liki Nahak had four children, but two of them have died,
  • 0:57 - 1:03
    Abili also has four children, Lou has six,
  • 1:03 - 1:06
    so you can come and live together with us
  • 1:06 - 1:10
    and look after the children,
  • 1:10 - 1:14
    don't be afraid to return,
  • 1:14 - 1:21
    there is no contract to keep you there,
  • 1:21 - 1:27
    but the reason we were divided was political,
  • 1:27 - 1:32
    so don't be afraid, everything here has returned to normal,
  • 1:32 - 1:42
    Amasiku used to hate us, but now he returned we don't seek revenge,
  • 1:42 - 1:47
    now the like in Bikarin along with Naha Rubik.
  • 1:47 - 1:51
    People who used to have weapons and wanted to murder us
  • 1:51 - 1:54
    have came home safely, we don't make trouble for them.
  • 1:54 - 1:59
    We are just ordinary people so why be scared to come home?
  • 1:59 - 2:08
    If you want to come home let us know so we can come with the head of the village and pick you up
  • 2:08 - 2:19
    don't be scared, we live in Craras near the memorial monument,
  • 2:19 - 2:26
    don't be scared, don't listen to the false news,
  • 2:26 - 2:35
    they war is over, and now we are free.
  • 2:35 - 2:39
    Before people that enjoyed murdering came back,
  • 2:39 - 2:43
    it wasn't a problem we recieved them came,
  • 2:43 - 2:49
    you are just ordinary citizens, why be scared to come home?
  • 2:49 - 3:05
    don't be scared to come home and look after the children together as a family,
  • 3:05 - 3:15
    If you want to come home send us news so myself and the village chief can meet you
  • 3:15 - 3:18
    and take you back to Craras
  • 3:18 - 3:24
    Dont be scared, I live in Craras closed to Monument place for the deceased
  • 3:24 - 3:30
    the Bibileo family, Uncle Jose, Abukasa are all Viqueque people,
  • 3:30 - 3:35
    we mustn't hate eachother but unite as one,
  • 3:35 - 3:39
    if possible everyone should come home together.
  • 3:40 - 3:49
    I just went to Oekusi but I'm not brave to enter Indonesia and look for you,
  • 3:49 - 3:54
    so I'm sorry I only sent a delegate from the family to go to Kefa.
  • 3:54 - 4:03
    If you want to come home, to Kili or to the border please let us know
  • 4:03 - 4:07
    so that me and the head of the village can meet with you,
  • 4:07 - 4:26
