Forward Operating Base Maliana
Forward Operating Base Maliana was handed back to the District Administrator by the International Stabilisation Force, after just over six months. About 20-30 soldiers from Golf Company, Timor- Leste Battle Group 5 were operating from the base.
Their tasks were to provide vehicle mounted patrols around the district, and foot patrols in the town area. The soldiers move to Chauvel Forward Operating base, just outside Dili.
