East Timor president accepts prime minister's resignation - Yahoo News: "DILI, East Timor (AP) — East Timor's president on Monday accepted the resignation of independence hero Xanana Gusmao as prime minister ahead of an expected restructuring of the government that would make it more inclusive.
The former guerrilla leader spearheaded East Timor's drive for independence when Indonesian rule ended in 2002. He was the first president of the half-island nation until he became prime minister in 2007.
Gusmao, 68, submitted his resignation to President Taur Matan Ruak on Friday. It has already been accepted by the ruling three-party coalition."
