On this day we remember Cat 5 TC Winston which tore through Fiji exactly 9 years ago as the strongest cyclone in Fiji and the Southern Hemisphere. Tragically, 44 lives were lost, 133k people made homeless, 62% of Fiji’s population impacted and F$2billion in damages.
“When the power cut after the earthquake, my solar system powered my freezer, charged phones & helped the community,” says Leslie from Melemaat Village, Vanuatu.
