This is a special video and a touching story.
While in Timor-Leste, I got connected with a local named Nata. He’s a really cool and friendly guy, who has been kind enough to take me around his country!
Nata and his youth group, Hatutan, recently started a LGBT pride parade in the small country of Timor-Leste, which has been making international headlines. Their movement has provided an opportunity to promote social inclusion for everyone in a country where LGBT people have struggled to gain family/social acceptance.
Their first pride parade was held last year, which attracted 500+ people and was so powerful that it brought in support from the previous Prime Minister. They are already planning their second pride to happen this coming June.
I really admire Nata's approach to make an impact in his country’s society, so I sat him down to question him and learn more about his story.
This is the longest video I've ever made, at nearly 5 minutes, and also the hardest I've spent editing... I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.
Special thanks to PixelAsia and FilmDeit Productions for the extra footage, and to Nata & his friends who helped make this video happen. Music: Epidemic Sound

East timor litteraly means east east
im not one of them but I tell myself I’m from Timor Leste
@@1xrxaxrxex174 are you from the east
fiji mixed
It wrong, its not east east. If you translated into native language "Tetun" is: Timor-Lorosa'e, (Loro=sun, sa'e=up/rise) so its mean the land of the rising sun from the east.
@@magnoneves3787 the English translation means East East
I didn’t know that East Timor had supportive people it makes me happy, because my parents are Timorese and they always tell me that if you were lgbtq+ you would get killed or beaten and it made me even more scared to come out to my parents and this video really helped tysm

Lets make lgtv suffer more
I'm loosing all my brain cells from all the homophobic comments.

Dude this is amazing, i'm legit looking at flights to this place right now
crap, there's no airport
David Bond of course there is bro Dili International airport
@@hellocyrax We do have the airport bro!!
Dude there is an airport here in Dili
Is Nicolau Lobato Airport not an airport? Nice logic, boy.
Nice to know there's somewhere in the world where people are trying to respect and get along with one another. God bless Nata !
No
I've been to Timor Leste back in 2013 n staying over for 2 years... Timor Leste is such a beautiful country with crazy beaches... I love Atauro islannd..
It’s sad how many homophobes are in this comments section.
Watplr Wraith i know :(
Watplr Wraith not sad at all
where?
Gay
Good
FUN FACT:
EAST TIMOR WAS THE SECOND COUNTRY THAT IS PREDOMINANT CATHOLIC COUNTRY IN SOUTHEAST ASIA AFTER THE PHILIPPINES
Is almost not recognized as Asia
FUN FACT :
*Timor Leste the poorest country in the world*
@@happyalltheday2275 Yes, it is true 🤣
I'm Filipino, but why do we keep bringing religion up? No seriously. Why?
@@chrono-glitchwaterlily8776 just fun fact! don't take it seriously!
Amazing video! Thanks for sharing it. Way to go, Timor-Leste!!
Timor was a Portuguese colonie and province (that's why they speak in part Portuguese)... but more important and above all excelent they great Friends and have a countrie that is a paradise in their hands!!
Best regards from Portugal
Rafael Abreu not really a province tho
Exactly, it was pronvincia ultramarino de Portugal
@@fakyu9346 It was province
@@odiviogusmao8876 Overseas Province
Oh.. just like Philippines was under Spanish Empire...
This is activism , not typing on your computer about what someone said or did 10 years ago
This video is great work and underrated. You're giving these people a voice and working for human rights is democratic grassroots work. The guys have so much motivation and good spirit and I wish them all the best. I really wonder how you can hate them or their work as seen in other comments - but hate is the problem of haters, and this video is a message of love and that's all that counts! :)
I hope East Timor joins beauty pageants soon.
Ew. Better they improve their infra and economy first than get involve in ridiculous competitions.
They don't have money..
@@ninjamerjosari3913 Poor countries like Nepal, South Sudan and other African countries are already joining pageants.
Hi I like ur program
i want to visit timor leste because of your program can you send me the invitation
I love that you bring topics like this up. So many people have no clue that most of the world is not available for safe/ easy travel to LGBT people and it is great to see where it is safe for us to go and that you are willing to take the time to talk about it!
Drew Binsky - Kindly disable the comments section. It's swarmed by homophobic trash.
A Rose that Blooms in Early May wassup gay
As someone who is Christian themselves, it's great to see more predominantly Christian nations opening up and accepting LGBT people for who they are. Love will always triumph over hate!
Then you are a hypocrite
How can you be a Christian and an LGBT supporter at the same time
@@frilink agree. But I’m not Christian
@alex sodom and gomorrah
@@frilink are you really sure there is none even one heterosexual male exist as the sodom and gomorah being? You are religious but lack of religious analysis.
@@adrianwakeisland4710 sodom and gomorrah was punished based on Homosexual sin...... yes, all of them was sinful except Lot and his children, even Lot's wife was punished
I think 500 its a fair number for TL first pride... Ecuador’s first pride was attended by 100-200 and now pride is huge with thousands and thousands!
Timor-Leste é um país lindo 🇧🇷 abraços do Brasil 🏳️🌈
I m from timor leste ,i not like brasil
Maldito
Obrigado eu sou um Timorense
A maioria dos brasileiros nem deve saber sobre o Timor-Leste, muitos nem sequer sabem que em África se fala português.
as an indonesian, now im thinking to move to timor leste. it was part of indonesia before
Kumpulan vidio hiburan good idea bro, I hope timor leste fill with Indonesian, and we will have big influence in their economy *devil laugh
@@fakyu9346 Bish did u know that east Timor government banned Indonesia restaurants and stuff 🙊
It wasn't INDO wants east Timor cause it has rich oils AND THEY CAN MAKE MORE MONEY WITH THE DARN OIL LEARN UR FACTS
@@jackxedits4793 woah, i didn't... But they still have Restaurante Minang all over the country wich is Indonesian traditional food restaurant, eventho the owner isn't Indonesian, it's still pretty big influence in their culture.
East Timor is trying too hard, seriously
@@jackxedits4793 and forget to mention that 80% of its import come from Indonesia lol. East timorese consume Indonesian Products daily, they watch Indonesian channel, their rich people go to school here, work here, have a vacation here, go to hospital here
If it's true that they banned Indonesian product, seriously they're trying too hard to erase our foot print there,
This needs to be the 2nd country in Asia to allow gay marriage. Taiwan can’t be the only one forever.
Hell no 👎 . Should stay 0
Nepal is the second
@@newblesrunsyou It's currently at 1so it wouldn't be staying 0. Though what was I to expect from someone as big as a joke as you.
Thailand and Cambodia are most likely. If Timor Lorosae will allow it, the Philippine Roman Catholic Church will dig its heels and act like the Indonesian Sunni Mosque regarding this issue.
In my family i got some members in the lgbt+ community which is amazing since i also consider myself part of the lgbt. When i get more older which is not long id love to come back to my country with an accepting community 🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱
Thats so awesome. What a progressive prime minister and what an inspirational guy, Nata. All people should live in peace and dignity
Now Timor Leste has became my favourite country. I’m definitely visiting yall 😍❤️
Thank u
LGBT rights in East Timor
has been legal since 1975.
Wow Nata, great video. You know when I was there in Timor Leste in 2011, I also organized a pageant and it was well- received and successful. Keep it up!
Fantastic video Drew. Thanks for posting it.
Really been enjoying your uploads lately drew
Hou nia timor familia 🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱
wow to see many homophobic comments with many likes makes me dissapointed in people
Omg love this video! Thanks for making it drew! It wouldbe a great idea to make more lgbt themed videos during the month of june as that is pride month in a lot of cities in north america :)
País lindo, com certeza um dia passarei por lá! 🇧🇷♥️🇹🇱
Happy to know that you've been visited our country.
Can't wait to go there, Dili, Timor leste. I'll bask whole day by the beach
Hi...we would welcome all of you 😘😘😘
Fun fact.. the Jesus statue was built by indonesian government.
Connect me with these guys!
Welcome to Timor leste 🇹🇱
I'm hitting up Timor Leste this year, but where are these $50 flights? A lot must've changed in the last 2 years, and less flights, since I haven't seen anything close to that price that exists. Travel on!
Interesting that those who claim to seek inclusion need their own parade, month, and flag. Just be a productive citizen, good neighbor and don't let your sexuality be what identify you.
La buat ida!
Well said 👏 acknowledging and accepting that they exist should do just fine. La presija uja o nia sexual preference hansa o nia identidade. You have so much more than just that
I am going to tell you why was Timor under Indonesian occupation.
It all started in Lisbon 1961, when Angola declared war to Portugal, because other colonies have bean getting independent, and Angola wants to be independent, so Salazar the portuguese dictator, started sending troops to Angola, in 1963 Guinea Bissau declared war and in 1964 Mozambique did the same thing. Timor leste did not declare war. The war went to a end in the 25 of april 1974 when portuguese troops, got in Lisbon and kick out the dictator, and Portugal finally went back to a republic.
After 25 of april Portugal wanted their colonies to get independence, Angola, Mozambique, Guinea Bissau, S Tomé Princepe and Cape verde got independence, but East Timor when they got independent, Indonesia sent troops to occupy East Timor.
So for 27 years Timor was under occupation of Indonesia
But until 2002 East Timor got ist’s independence!
And that’s why they speak Portuguese in Timor
GVA and now, they also speak Bahasa Indonesia actually
Not all timor ppl dont speak portuguese they have there own language called tetum. I no dis bcuz my parents r from timor leste.
Wow you do know the history of our country but still we don't really speak portu
No, Timor Leste was an ownerless land in 1974, that's why Indonesia took a chance to occupied it. They never stated their own independence in 1974.
Do more of these videos about LGBT issues in the areas you travel PLEASE
I think. Im gonna visted east timor
Awesome vid and great to learn about this aspect of Timor-Leste. Thanks. I can't believe how easy it is to get to from Bali!
TIMOR LESTE 🇹🇱
LGBT is Human too... Must be protect a same...
Few weeks ago, 50k?!!!
Sya dri indo sya tau timur leste udh berpisah dri indo salam dri indo 😊
kemana aja kamu?
Wkwkwkwkw
Alhamdulillah, untung udah lepas dari Indonesia.
Karena timor leste sudah lepas dari neraka namanya indonesia. Berikutnya adalah papua.
@@adrianwakeisland4710 hehe, susah ngajak²
@@adrianwakeisland4710 Unlike timor, west papua has historically always had been a part of Indonesia. The Majapahit Empire stretched from modern day malaysia to even west papua and even east timor. East Timor was never apart of modern day Indonesia because it was colonized by the Portuguese and not the Dutch. We annexed it because the US told us too and also because we were under an evil dictatorship. But now there’s no more massacres or genocide because we freed ourselves from Soeharto and became a democracy
Hatutan made me smile, it rhymes with a filipino word that translates to "sex". I'll definitely include Timor Leste in my list to travel.
Are you serious...
😅😂😂😂
This coment section is pure cancer
Drew Binsky Should Visit Puerto Rico
Very Nice And Touching Video :)
É certamente um país incrível 🇹🇱🇧🇷
1:20
THATS MY SUPPLY DROP
.
Forca Timor Leste
before indonesia occupied Timor in 75 the majority was Animist over 95 % but because of indonesias sick religion law they had to choose one of the 6 approved religions ( Animism not included ) and because the church was one of the only refuges today its christian .
It's because of indonesians' sexual hypocrisy. If not because of their sexual hypocrisy, all indonesians are hardcore explicit atheists.
Got docs supporting this?
Shame on me as an indonesian, this country become 1000X times forward than indonesia
Benny Indrasmoro go move there. I will be happy
Spankin Chicks go fuck yourself i dont care
Vick Nad yeah they are so forward thinking of lgbt but not in education and economic no wonders that this country still depend on indonesia for their economy. Sigh independent my Ass
Benqbarbeque haha why are u angry. They are 1000 times better than indonesia right??? So get the fuck out of here and move there . I bet you will be hate it 😄😄😄😄😄😄
In your dream
The Government opened the door to the Hell
0:52 Voice crack
haha
On cc before 0.05, you'll thank me
Lol 😂
That $50 flight 3x a day is now $200 1x a day
Is this a re-upload?????
timor leste actually the part of Indonesia at the first,but they're separated themselves
they got invaded and ocupied by the Indonesians, they just got their liberty restored
Yuuto dude face the reality. We invaded 'em after Aussie & American countries begged my country to invade it after their independence in 70s and a communist threat in there. They begged us to invade it in order to beat the shit out of these commies
Evan Filemon citation needed.
Evan Filemon absolutely true, luckily they've got oil as well
There r so many hypocrite trolls that loved to talk shit 'bout East Timor invasion. Mostly Aussies. They believed that their country was the one who liberated East Timor while they begged our military to invade it in 70s. They r hypocrite as fuck
I thought East Timor was independence in 1999
United Nations administered TL in 1999 before they gave them full independence in 2002
You not understand the terms of Referendum and independence???
My country 🇹🇱
I forgot this country even existed.
Same
This is so great!!!!!!Keep up, you guys!!!!!Best wishes!!!!
TIMOR LESTE🎓🇹🇱
Since you are in the region, why not do gay rights video next time you visit Indo
I wish him luck tho.
what an awesome Prime Minister, I loved the clip of him speaking! I am an American and though I'm pretty well-versed in geography I had no idea Timor-Leste was a Country until today!
I want to visit there one day!
Richie Susarno i come from there
Welcome To Timor-Leste❤
I thought it was a Brazilian state or province!
They were under Portuguese before and maybe some of them have Portuguese blood.
So thay they have a same culture with Brazil.
I like this country
Rich oil
That's a difference between islam and christian society
What?
There’s little difference between indonesia and Philippines on how they treat lgbt people
@@Gnomelander1400 We in the Philippines tolerate LGBTQ on the streets, we tolerate the weird drag, but a good amount of us find them disgraceful to our own family once a member of the family comes out as LGBTQ. As a country, the Church has a hold on the lowland Philippine educational systems. Given the history of Timor Lorosae and Philippines, I noticed that lowland Philippines seems more deeply Christian, just about as deeply Islamized as the Malays and Coastal Javanese.
We have a rather convoluted way of practicing "Hate the sin, love the sinner," where we separate Church from State, tolerance is viewed as good and even synonymous to acceptance, and we simply stay diplomatic on their face. We eat with them. Everything seems fine, until the LGBTQ start fighting for their rights. Then...
Nobody:

This is my country
I truly enjoyed the video. Keep up the good work. Nata and his group are doing an amazing job 🏳️🌈. Obrigado pelo que vocês estam fazendo, o mundo precisa de mais pessoas assim 🙏.
it's kinda cute, as long as it isn't guys dancing in thongs
Disgusting
Good video, Mahal kita Binsky... Also visit Egypt
Halo people of Timor leste I am filipino and I belong LGBT society but my look is a boy. I want to friend with you
Now unfortunately it's very expensive to get to Timor from Bali
In my life of pass half century..only now I knew about this country ..thsnk u drew God bless love from lon uk
Well done guys 🏳️🌈
Well done gay

20 years of independence and they got this? LMAO

20 years is nothing... it takes a lot more time to build a country

Well, i respect it but i hate it
I am really not in favor of LGBT, however I do accept that I think they are better minded than ones on my country....
This is so sweet!
Miris ya, setelah sudah lama berpisah dari indonesia
Loh miris kenapa? Malah bagus lah mengakui hak2 mereka ketimbang di indonesia dipersekusi.
@@Indra71187 iya juga sih
I hope people are born normally and not getting influence by other people
They are truly normal, compare to indonesians in general. Is the person's gender or sexuality the basis of person's being normal?
come to qatar
Almost 1/4 of the total likes and dislikes are dislikes. Sad...
Nah it’s good fam. Ain’t wanting them anywhere innit.
Great vid
