Maubara
Maubara is a village in Maubara Subdistrict (Liquiçá District, East Timor), just west of the city of Liquiçá. Most of the inhabitants speak Tocodede. It lies near the Maubara Important Bird Area, encompassing the small coastal Lake Maubara.
History
During the beginning of the Portuguese occupation, it was taken by the Netherlands. There is a historic Dutch fort, located at the entrance to the village on the seaside overlooking the bay. The fort still contains the original cannon and is quite well preserved. Later, Portugal negotiated with Holland and regained the site in a trade for Flores, which was occupied by the Portuguese at that time.
The village is also the location in which the infamous Besi Merah Putih militia was created. In 2000, on the western outskirts of the village, the UNTAET Crime Scene Detachment conducted sixteen exhumations in two days, most being victims of the Manuel Carrascalão House Massacre in Dili.

Dance The Night
by: MayberryThere she goes walking down the stairs
Lipsticks on and she's ready to go
She slows down in hesitation, yeah
But i let her know she's beautiful
But tonight this town is ours
They'll never bring me down down hold me down
We'll ride around and sing sing sing out loud
And we'll run away and sail to the coast
And i'll spend the night
They're never gonna slow slow slow us down
We'll light a match and burn this city down
And this is my heart and this is my soul
And i'll dance the night with the girl i love the most
And i don't care if we ever leave
Its everything a dream could be
Her hands around my neck
My hands are at her waist
As all of our plans fall into place
But tonight this town is ours
They'll never bring me down down hold me down
We'll ride around and sing sing sing out loud
And we'll run away and sail to the coast
And i'll spend the night
They're never gonna slow slow slow us down
We'll light a match and burn this city down
And this is my heart and this is my soul
And i'll dance the night with the girl i love the most
With the girl i love the most, Oh baby hold on tight lets make this right.
They'll never bring me down down hold me down
We'll ride around and sing sing sing out loud
And we'll run away and sail to the coast
And i'll spend the night
They'll never bring me down down hold me down
We'll ride around and sing sing sing out loud
And we'll run away and sail to the coast
And i'll spend the night
They're never gonna slow slow slow us down
We'll light a match and burn this city down
And this is my heart and this is my soul
