PNG Is monitoring Tonga Disaster Situation Closely : Marape

Prime Minister James Marape has announced that PNG is closely monitoring the situation in the Kingdom of Tonga, and will be assisting if the need arises. 


Mr. Marape said this after an undersea volcano erupted over the weekend, and caused a tsunami in the Kingdom. 

Prime Minister Marape says that PNG is closely monitoring the situation, and will assist its Wan Solwara neighbour if help is needed.

He says that he also joins many other Papua New Guineans who have sent their thoughts and prayers to the people of Tonga, at this trying time. 

It's estimated that up to 80 000 people could have been affected by the massive volcanic eruption.

The undersea volcanic eruption has caused huge damages including disruption of power and disconnected communications services in the area.
