Malekula people urge Vanuatu government to fix roads

12:59 pm on 26 April 2012

People on the Vanuatu island of Malekula have demanded immediate repairs to their roads.

They have written to the Prime Minister, Sato Kilman, asking for repairs to be done now, not just before the election due later this year.

This comes after a mother gave birth on a boat while travelling to the Norsup maternity hospital.

She had not been able to travel by road because of flood damage.
