A Solomon Islands medical doctor and Tikopian community spokesperson based in Honiara says food and medical supplies are urgently needed on the remote island destroyed by category five cyclone Lola.
Dr Jackson Rakei, who has been involved in past previous damage assessments is this time acting as the communications advisor for the Tikopia/Anuta Disaster Committee.
He told RNZ Pacific's Lydia Lewis he is concerned about the livelihood of the people and their health.
