Papua New Guinea shaken again by major quake

From Morning Report, 7:47 am on 9 April 2018

Papua New Guinea's remote Highlands are again reeling after another major earthquake struck a region struggling after a 7.5 tremor only six weeks ago. Aid was already slow to reach the region of about 500,000 people, and with the onset of tribal fighting in recent weeks, relief had pretty much ground to a halt after medical and aid workers were forced to flee. After Saturday's quake, people in the region say things have gone right back to square one. RNZ Pacific's Jamie Tahana reports.
