Timorese President calls for a more competent, transparent and efficient State

RTP Notícias15 September 2026 at 07:20

The President of Timor-Leste, José Ramos-Horta, made a public call for a more competent, transparent and efficient State in the country.

In his speech, Ramos-Horta highlighted that no citizen or company should depend on personal relationships or political influence to exercise their rights and work.

The Timorese President thus advocates for a change in the way the State operates, promoting governance based on merit and equal treatment before the law.

Why this matters

Timorese readers are directly affected because the State they use daily — to obtain documents, health services, education or create businesses — can become more efficient and less dependent on favoritism. President Ramos-Horta's call follows concerns about the quality of governance in the country and may signal future political priorities of his mandate.
