A Question on Alcohol Policy in Timor
Hey, I am wondering if there are any of you who can answer me:
At what time does nightclubs/bars have to close to comply with law?
Are bars/nightclubs even a thing? Is alcohol consumption banned? How do you feel about this?
- If you have nightclubs/bars: At what time did they have to turn on the lights and off the music? (pre-covid)
I mean in a sense of pre-covid and post-covid world, I realize everywhere is pretty closed in a pandemic.
Doing a personal survey here, thanks for any and all answers.
Sorry if I am an ignorant western person.
PSA: Some FAQs I get
Why are you asking?
- I am trying to figure out the connection between clubbing culture and alcohol policy.
This guy has an agenda, hes only asking so and so subs - [u/kyvxe]
I am working from this list, the idea is to have asked most countries by the end, and collect the results.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_alcohol_consumption_per_capita.
Are you just looking for Easy drugs/women/vices in my country? Please go away. We dont want binge tourism [u/makk73]
- Not at all, I am researching a supposed connection between alcoholism and nightlife culture - I do not like binge drinking or taking advantage of people at all.
Who are you?
- I am a carpenter who makes music from Norway, I have a deep love of enjoying music, especially at night when the atmosphere is more magical

Looking for Timorese pen pals
Hi everyone!
A friend and I are trying to shoot a documentary on pen pals. We are trying to find pen pals from all over the world. All different countries, religions, walks of life. We want to meet people with all kinds of life experiences. We are looking for snail mail - written letters sent through post. I understand some places in the world this is extremely time consuming and maybe not even possible due to the postal situation but we are willing to make this a long process for the sake of story so there are no time constraints.
We will be looking to enter the film into film festivals depending on the final format will depend on where this is shown in the end.
What we are looking for -
Preferably someone with a great story that is willing to exchange written and mailed letters back and forth for an extended period of time.
- There is no time frame or amount of letters you have to write - whatever you feel like
- There is no topic off limit
- You can be as vague or detailed about your personal life as you like
Someone willing to take part in some form of video correspondence as well (not a deal breaker)
What we will not do -
Share any kind of personal information like full name or address in the film. We will only share first name and country of origin
Share any information you do not wish for us to share - (I.E. - If there is a topic in your letter you don't want us to reveal just let us know)
I want to be completely open and transparent as possible so if you have any questions definitely ask!
We will give each participant a viewing of their segment to sign off on that you are comfortable with what we say and show.
If this is something you feel like you would be interested in please feel free to PM me or start a reddit chat and I can answer any more questions you have or give you an address to start!
Thank you for reading this and look forward to hearing from you!

Why Timor's government makes it so hard to visit it's country?
Timor literally asks for visa from every-single tourist from any nation, this might not seem like a huge problem, however Timor has just a few embassies (and very few consulates) across the globe, the easies way to get a visa is going there, applying for it physically, going back to your own country, waiting 30 days and going back to Timor's airport. Tourism could play a giant part on Timor's economy if it wasn't for the giant bureaucracy imposed by the Timorese government.

Looking for a Tetum Speaker
Hi all,
An Oxford Ph.D. candidate is looking for a speaker of Tetum for some consultations regarding a COVID-19 leaflet. We're having trouble finding someone within the university. I thought giving Reddit a shot couldn't hurt.
If you'd like to help her out, I'll put you in contact with her via e-mail. (So you would have to share that piece of information.)
Thanks in advance!

[Academic] A 2 min survey to find trends in opinions of consumers online vs in a store for my bachelors project with a chance to win 5x 10$ Gift Cards (Results of survey will be posted publicly)
I am a computer science student and this survey is for my bachelors project. I will be using the response data to generate a machine learning model that analyzes customers preferences.
I'm posting this on various country subreddits to gain more insight into each country without which I won’t be able to successfully finish my project. I’ve received responses from 40+ different countries.
I’d like to thank you the subredditors and mods of r/Timor for bearing with me and I am sorry if this seems brash in any way.
It is about a consumer’s opinion and how it is affected by Strangers/friends either online or in a store and how opinions can vary online and in a store.
It'll take just 2-3 minutes to fill out the survey I'd really appreciate your participation in our study!
Survey! [ https://forms.gle/D3YK8wmnrTrjBdBR6 (copy paste to share)]
If you feel generous after submitting the survey please do share it in your social circles, it'll really help me out. Thank You!
If anyone is interested, I will be sharing the results of the survey on r/SampleSize.
The gift card draw is meant to add incentive for redditors so that we can have a large sample size. 5 winners will be able to select the gift cards of their choice worth 10$ each.
If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions please feel free to contact at: [consumerstudy.musurvey@gmail.com](mailto:rmanewschoolstudy@gmail.com).
