25.01.2022 We at METAC are saddened by the passing of our beloved Maun Salustiano Freitas on Saturday 1 December 2018 at 11.30 am. A champion for Timor-Leste, a leader and mentor, much respected and loved whose absence will be deeply felt. We will endeavor to emulate his courage, dedication and endless love for our people. Rest In Peace Maun Salus.
