EAST TIMOR, also called TIMOR-LESTE, is a small and economically impoverished island country located in Southeastern Asia. Hence the name, the country is located on the eastern part of the island of Timor, which is east of the string of islands that include Java and Bali; the western portion of Timor belongs to Indonesia. The Timor Sea is south of East Timor, while the Selat Wetar (Wetar Strait) is north and is south of Wetar island. The capital, located on the northern shore, is Dili. The currency that citizens use is the United States Dollar (USD). East Timor Centavos coins circulate with the US Dollar, but there are no banknotes.
