Ini Diego Garcia menurut WikipediaThe atoll is approximately 1,970 nautical miles (3,650 km) east of the coast of
Africa (at
Tanzania), 967 nautical miles (1,790 km) south-southwest of the southern tip of
India (at
Kanyakumari) and 2,550 nautical miles (4,720 km) west-northwest of the west coast of
Australia (at
Cape Range National Park,
Western Australia). Diego Garcia lies in the
Chagos Archipelago at the southernmost tip of the
Chagos-Laccadive Ridge — a vast submarine range in the Indian Ocean,
[2] topped by a long chain of
coral reefs, atolls, and
islands comprising
Lakshadweep,
Maldives, and the
Chagos Archipelago. Local time is
UTC+06:00 year-round (
DST is not observed).
[3]The
United States Navy operates Naval Support Facility (NSF) Diego Garcia, a large naval ship and submarine support base, military air base, communications and space-tracking facility, and an anchorage for pre-positioned military supplies for regional operations aboard
Military Sealift Command ships in the lagoon.
[4]Mauritius sought to regain sovereignty, sold to the UK in 1965, over the Chagos Archipelago. Between 1968 and 1973, the
Chagossians, then numbering about 2,000 people, were resettled by the
British government to Mauritius and
Seychelles to allow the
United States to establish a military base on the island. Today, the exiled Chagossians are still trying to return, claiming that the forced expulsion was illegal (see
Depopulation of Diego Garcia).
