National Mourning: Timor-Leste has declared a week of mourning for former president Francisco “Lu-Olo” Guterres, who died at 71 in a Malaysian hospital; flags will fly at half-mast and his body is expected to return to Dili on June 23 as funeral arrangements are still being organised. Regional Advocacy: A group of 134 current and former parliamentarians from 11 countries, including Timor-Leste, urged ASEAN to demand the immediate release of Myanmar’s detained leader Aung San Suu Kyi and all political prisoners, calling for proof of life and unrestricted access. Aviation & Connectivity: Aero Dili launched its first direct flight from Dili to Darwin, operating Sundays and Tuesdays, positioning the route as a bridge for commerce and people-to-people links across the Timor Sea. Media & Digital Economy: Timor-Leste sought Malaysia’s help to establish an official Google presence, aiming to unlock monetisation for local creators; Malaysia and Timor-Leste also agreed to strengthen media cooperation via news sharing and journalism training.
