The Australian owners of a resort in Samoa which was wiped out by the Tsunami, have accused the Australian government of abandoning them. Chris and Wendy Booth are trying to rebuild their Seabreeze resort on Upolu's south coast. But eight weeks on from the disaster, their insurance hasn't come through and they say there have been NO offers of assistance from the Australian government. They say they also haven't received any assistance from the Red Cross or any other aid agencies on the ground.
