Accurate data on foreign direct investment outside of the oil and gas sector is limited. According to
data collected by Trade & Invest Timor-Leste (TITL) in January 2005, (Table 4), total non-oil FDI
amounted to about $ 75,300,000 at end-2004. Non-oil FDI by sector was concentrated in tele-communications ($22 m); construction ($16.8 m); hotels ($15.1 m) and banking ($14.2 m).All other
sectors (i.e., retail distribution, shipping, other transport including car rental, food services, travel agencies and other services) accounted for about $7 million.
