The recent tropical cyclone Seroja, which left devastation in its wake, has drawn attention to eastern Indonesia, especially the province of East Nusa Tenggara (NTT).
NTT has long experienced some of the greatest development challenges in Indonesia, with more than 20 per cent of the population of the province considered poor—double the national rate.
