West Timor
West Timor is a political region that comprises the western half of Timor island with the exception of Oecussi-Ambeno district (which is politically part of East Timor) and forms a part of the East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) province of the country of Indonesia. West Timor's capital and chief port is Kaupang[?].
During the colonial period it was known as Dutch Timor and was a centre of Dutch loyalists during the Indonesian War of Independence (1945 - 1949).
