and clothing for all people;

be healthy, and live a long, productive life. They will actively
participate in economic, social and political development, promoting
social equality and national unity;
- People will no longer be isolated, because there will be
good roads, transport, electricity, and communications in the
towns and villages, in all regions of the country;
- Production and employment will increase in all sectors - agriculture,
fisheries and forestry;
- Living standards and services will improve for all East Timorese,
and income will be fairly distributed;

sound management and sustainable utilization of natural resources;
