Residents in Fiji are calling on the authorities to clean up the mess at a rubbish dump near Lautoka.

They say apart from the unpleasant smell coming from the Vunato Rubbish Dump, there is an increasing number of stray dogs at the site.

One Lautoka resident Roderic Browne told Christine Rovoi he's tried to photograph the site but was ordered by a guard at the dump to delete the pictures.
