Since the East Timor massacres and deportations before independence there are probably very many fewer. The area where Maku’a was spoken was very much affected by the rampages and killings by the militia. It was feared that the last speakers of Maku’a may have perished as a result of this. However, as was mentioned above in the section on language endangerment, it is now known that there are still some surviving speakers of Maku’a. The language is moribund.
