AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Manpower & Jobs: Singapore is set to open more labour channels to East Timor from next year, with Prime Minister Lawrence Wong saying construction, marine shipyard, process sectors and selected manufacturing and services occupations will be included—aimed at easing Singapore’s manpower crunch while giving Dili more room to use its young workforce. Diplomacy & Justice: Vietnam’s Charge d’Affaires met Timor-Leste’s justice minister in Dili to discuss legal affairs, judicial reform, and digital transformation, with Vietnam offering experience and support through bilateral and ASEAN mechanisms. Regional Training & Policing: Australia’s AFP Commissioner Krissy Barrett will urge UN member states to adopt a “leaner” police peacekeeping training model, noting it was used successfully with Timor-Leste officers in a UN-accredited program in Brisbane. Skills Funding: Australia announced AUD$359.8m (FJD) for Pacific Australia Skills, including support for Timor-Leste, focused on job-linked vocational training and strengthening local training systems. Economy & Income: The World Bank reclassified Vietnam and the Philippines as upper-middle-income, leaving Timor-Leste among ASEAN members still in the lower-middle-income group.
