The UN mandate/whatever ended so the country has a new name which is throwing everyone off...it's called Timor L'Este (although most don't punctuate it correctly and write Timor Leste) which means (in French)...you guess it...East Timor. Actually, Scott, it's not French but Portuguese, so it is Leste. It used to be a Portuguese colony. The country's official name: Republica Democratica Timor Leste. 73 ...
