WEWIKU WEHALI CULTURAL ASSOCIATION OF TIMOR-LESTE
Associação Cultural Wewiku Wehali was established on 28 November 2015, by Nina Leong, Chris Rhamos and Ametha Body with very limited members; however, this group can maintain its existence and ongoing activities until present and become one of the famous groups among several other groups in Timor-Leste. The team who supports and teach the choreographic behind the scenes to the dancers is Chris, Jojo Gama and Toto Peregrino Although Associação Cultural Wewiku Wehali is a newly established group, it has performed in several number of prestigious and country’s big event such as performing on the celebration of Proclamation of East Timor Independence Day, event organized by ministerial level.
Being a newly formed group, Wehali has also an expectation to grow and become one of the successful groups among others to promote East Timor Culture through Traditional dance. To achieve this Wehali has to put so much effort and dedication to make the expectation become real. One of the big achievements is on 17 January 2016 at the AIR TIMOR FAIR TRADE event, Wehali became winner (first place) on the dance competition organized by Air Timor. This shows that Wehali has high dedication to maintain the group existence to promote East Timor identity to the world.
