Yeap. This is the guy who told me how he had to drive with his head down and gunshots were fired all over the place near his house along the Jacinto De Candido road. In the hospital, he saw 2 poliewomen died as they both couldn't survive their injuries.Another stray bullet hit another friend's house in Vila Verde and richochet off the wall onto the roof. Again, they thank God that they were all in their bedrooms and not in the living where the bullet came in. Other places of action included Audian where an uncle said he watch the action from atop his apartment. He said, "this is like watching real-life movie" as the soldiers and police shot at each other along Audian. There was no shooting in my area at Bairo Pitte but I caught sight of this at Caicoli where shooting was also intense on 25th May.
Although I was not in the thick of the action, I could feel the sadness and solemn mood of fellow friends and locals in Timor at that time. Right now, I wonder how they are feeling. I wish I could stay to do something but there was really nothing I could do except to pray. Hope I can be back soon.

Be careful out there, we'll be praying for you.
And if you do hear gunfire nearby, drop to the ground, and crawl/roll to any nearby cover that is between you and the shooter. If you do run, never run more then four seconds before hitting the deck.
hi rex, there's sure some good and practical advise.
jason: i saw the pics and i feel so heavy and burden. been praying everyday for ET. hopefully peace be restored soon. u take care.
Hold the line. Don't be afraid. The prayers of the saints are much more potent than 5.56mm rounds and 7.62 AK rounds.
We've been praying for you.

Halo orasaun ba Timor (Pray for Timor)
