Quake dams formed by landslides and debris at the head of the Tagali River in the Tari district has posed another major hazard; the continuous aftershocks could cause flooding.
Sally Lloyd, who has lived among the local Bosavi people, has been assisting the Western Provincial Government, MAF and other stakeholders to coordinate and disseminate information about the people and the landscape so that those delivering aid know exactly where to go.
She said locals are terrified, especially over rumours that Mt Bosavi in Southern Highlands Province could erupt.
