Passabe Administrative Post

Passabe, officially Passabe Administrative Post (Portuguese: Posto Administrativo de Passabe, Tetum: Postu administrativu Pásabe), is an administrative post (and was formerly a subdistrict) in the Oecusse municipality and Special Administrative Region (SAR) of East Timor, which is an exclave surrounded on three sides by Indonesian West Timor.

[1][2] Its seat or administrative centre is the suco of Abani [de].

Passabe is a small village (sulo) in the administrative post, very near the Indonesian border.

It was the site of a massacre of East Timorese by pro-Indonesia militias in the follow-up to the 1999 referendum for East Timor's independence.
