| Resistance. A Childhood Fighting for East Timor
Naldo Rei was just 6 months old when Indonesia invaded East Timor in December 1975. He spent the first 3 years of his life in the jungle, where his family had fled for safety. After his father was murdered for his work in the resistance movement, 9 year old Naldo joined the clandestine resistance and began his own extraordinary journey fighting for East Timor's freedom. Throughout his teenage years, Naldo was imprisoned and tortured regularly for his covert opposition to the brutal Indonesian regime. Eventually, in too much danger to remain in his homeland, he escaped to Indonesia and then Australia for several years. Now living in an independent East Timor, Naldo Rei can tell his incredible story. His life is proof that no amount of danger and loss can crush the human spirit. Don't miss the chance to hear this extraordinary man speak! When: 4 - 5.30pm Saturday May 3 Where: Asia Bookroom, Unit 2, 1-3 Lawry Place, Macquarie (adjacent to the Jamison shops) RSVP: By 5.30pm Friday May 2 to Asia Bookroom - 62515191 or books@AsiaBookroom.com |
