This volume is a compilation of papers presented at two 1989 meeting on Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT), one in Canberra and one in Kupang. NTT is one of the poorest provinces in Indonesia, which nonetheless has much untapped potential for socio-economic development.

The papers represent a range of perspectives and disciplinary approaches. They cover discussions on the important economic sectors in NTT, as well as issues concerning social life and the environment. Those dealing with economics provide background information on the current situation, as well as pinpointing areas for further attention and potential for further expansion. Certain development programs in NTT are surveyed, and their impacts assessed. Regional development issues are also discussed.

Overall, the volume presents development issues specific to the region, as well as contributing to the discussion of more general issues of development. It represents a dialogue between Indonesian and Australian planners, researchers, and implementers of development in NTT, and will hopefully give impetus to ongoing cooperation and commitment to development in NTT.
