However we have been closely working with the Civil Registration Unit and have been unofficially given the part of information so we have been running tests and quality control," said Carlos Valenzuela, the Chief Electoral Officer and member of Independent Electoral Commission (IEC).

"Since the arrival of (DEOs), there has been a constant daily effort to go to the villages and to spread basic voter information messages," Mr. Valenzuela explained. -

"The first part of our objective for these elections was to increase the active participation of East Timorese electoral officers," said Carlos Valenzuela, the IEC's Chief Electoral Officer."We already integrated 21 new electoral officers into our headquarters and all District Offices are under the management of East Timorese electoral officers."
While in August 2001, each polling centre was managed by one International DEO, this time half of the nearly 300 anticipated sites will see Timorese DEOs in charge.
"We feel that it is one of the most important steps yet to have 150 Timorese working hand in hand with 150 internationals as DEOs.We are hoping they will work harmoniously," added Mr. Valenzuela.
