Hilda Lini was an historic figure whose role is often understated. Among many other things, she was instrumental in laying the foundations of support for West Papuan independence in the early days of the republic. She died on Mother's Day. A poetic ending for a lyrical soul. RIP

10 years ago today, cyclone Pam—the worst storm in south Pacific history at the time—ransacked Vanuatu.
This is Rachel, three years old, standing where her house used to be. When I met her, she was trying to rake it clean.

A few words of appreciation for Marc Neil-Jones, founder of the Vanuatu Daily Post. I owe my journalism career to him.

I'm deeply saddened to hear that Daily Post founder and Pacific media pioneer Marc Neil Jones died last night after a life-long battle with diabetes.

A great tree has fallen.
