Press Release Students Petition Against Ministry of Educations Decision Timor-Leste is very young country established in the third millennium. Therefore, it is very important to develop its human resources to prepare all process of state and nation building which will enable all physical and none physical operational development in Timor-Leste. After decades of independence, Timor-Leste is still facing huge problems in the education sector-education sector is not yet become states priority. States funding allocation is still really low compared to other sectors such as infrastructure. lack of governments priority in the education affairs which prejudice students and to minimize capacity of national university to reduce numbers of new enrolment students this year with reasons of logistic limitations, less lecturers to teach and limited university capacity to accommodate new students. Timor-Leste has only single state university, even with the limited capacity government has its obligation to manage everyone whoever wants to study at university effectively, so everyone can have access to higher education according to our constitution article 59 number 2 which says education is the future of Timor-Leste and the way forward to the progress of this beloved land. Few days ago, everyone heard through news that Education Vice Minister for tertiary education affairs stated clearly on the new enrolment for academic year of 2013/2014 to access to states university with full of discriminatory sense against youths of this beloved country who have willing to continue their studies at UNTL. Points referred the above none sense decisions as follows: 1. Only to give greater priority to those students who has got grade 27 above from the recent examination to enroll at national university. It shows government has no willing to liberate youths from poor and disadvantage families just to create another discrimination steps. 2. Students with grade below 27 those with special package for veterans which come with recommendation letter from veterans office. This means that will not include rest of others even though they are veterans teenagers but they will not be accepted because they do not have recommendation letters. This phenomena is big insult and against popular struggle principles. As student we observe that this decision of Vice Minister of Education has brought another social stratification in the society. We consider that this policy is really against state building principles. Everyone recognizes independence of Timor-Leste was through popular decision making not from a small group. We consider the decision taken by Vice Minister was unfair, unjust, against poorer Timorese people and not fit with majority of Timorese willing, therefore: 1. We against strongly to ask Vice Minister of education to cancel all his decisions to allocate 50% seats to veterans teenagers to access to national university even their examination grade below required standard. 2. we ask strongly to Vice Minister to eliminate all forms of standards to open fair test for everyone to compete fairly according to spirit of our constitution. 3. We strongly to urge our national parliament to take actions against ministry of education which has discriminatory purposes in mind. 4. we recommend to national parliament to deeper discussions on states budget for 2014 which allocate more funds and prioritize human resource development. 5. we call all university candidates from all over the country to come together to form this coalition more stronger to ask our constitutional rights to state. 6. We call every part of society which has vest interest in education to take action against government of Timor-Leste specially ministry of education to answer peoples right in education. 7. With strongly voice to declare to everyone in Timor-Leste and international community that struggle against Indonesian occupation was with popular force not an elite or small groups fighting. Therefore, we urge resistance leaders to please valorize popular war philosophy to fulfill economic and sosial justice for everyone.
