During the 1990 years who were the Lorico Asuwain?

The Lorico Asuwain were a group of young activists whose goal was to free East Timor (now known as Timor Leste) from Indonesian control. Their name was coined following the 12th of November, 1991 demonstration that ended in the Santa Cruz Massacre. The name was used to distinguish this group of generally younger activists from an older resistance movement that had proclaimed independence from Portugal in 1975.

"Lorico" is the East Timorese name of the loris [a type of parakeet], which is used here as a synonym for the young people. "Asuwain" (Asswain), literally translated as "war dogs", are the name given to the Timorese warriors because dogs fight fiercely and courageously. "Lorico Asuwain" means something like "youthful warriors". [1] Usually, a yellow-breasted lorikeet (Trichoglossus capistratus) is used as a symbol.
