ADB has been by Timor-Leste’s side since the 1999 independence referendum, providing assistance of more than $380 million in 15 years. ADB has provided finance and capacity development for investment projects that have had a major impact on the country’s economic growth, as well as technical assistance in support of a range of reforms and Timor-Leste’s accession process to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
ADB is committed to the future development of Timor-Leste, bringing knowledge, new solutions, and a wealth of experience, as the country continues to build its infrastructure and invest in its young population.
