Let the Painting Begin!

The “Buy Local. Build Timor-Leste” stencil.
This morning marked the first day of the painting of approximately 100 tiga roda, or pushcarts, around Dili. Today, stationed in front of UNTL (Universidade Nacional Timor Lorosa’e), across from the country’s Parliament, PDT‘s Verification Assistant Baptista da Silva was busy at work overseeing the collaboration between the painters and tiga roda vendors. As the project continues, the painting team from Creative Sablon will be visiting clusters of tiga roda across the city to paint PDT’s logo and slogan on the cart’s sides. This effort is aimed at increasing the awareness of the importance of spending money locally in order to promote stability and economic growth in a post-conflict country.
This activity was funded by Arsenault Family Foundation (AFF)
