East ___ (neighbor of Indonesia) (5)

I believe the answer is:

timor

(Other definitions for timor that I've seen before include "East . . . . ., became independent of Indonesia in 2002" , "Eastern island" , "SE Asian island" , "Indonesian island" , "Indonesian territory" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
