Résumé
2021 was already a busy year for East Timorese politics in view of the presidential elections in 2022. While Timor-Leste was praised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) for its good management of the pandemic in 2020, it faced in 2021 the highly virulent Delta variant wave, as did other Southeast Asian states, resulting in severe social and economic impact in the capital of Dili as in the rest of the highly rural country. The national budget was further burdened by the exigencies ensuing the major human and material damage caused by Cyclone Seroja in early April. On the diplomatic front, especially with regard to AUKUS-related dynamics, it is worth looking away from the Indo-Pacific great powers to focus on the small but strategically located Timor-Leste. The latter will in addition be busy in 2022 with the commemoration of the 20th anniversary of its official independence.
