East Timor and Indonesian survey teams mark the border

Representatives of East Timor and Indonesia have begun a Joint Reconnaissance Survey aimed at demarcating their land border.

The United Nations Transitional Administration in East Timor says the 12-day survey began in the West Timor border town of Atambua on Monday.

The teams, including surveyors and diplomats from each side, are set to visit the border districts of Covalima, Maliana in East Timor as well as the Oecussi enclave in the coming days.

They will attempt to locate old border markers and study geological features as well as social and technical issues linked to border delineation.
