BBC World Service - BBC OS, Many Tsunami Victims Still Waiting For Aid

Many survivors in remote areas in Indonesia are still waiting for aid.

We'll continue speaking to some of the survivors in Indonesia. Aid has not reached the remote areas affected by earthquake and tsunami, and and people are battling with thirst and hunger. The number of people known to have died has risen to at least 1,407. More than 500 bodies have been buried in mass graves, but they do not include those of any foreign nationals. 
Also today: We speak to a father of three, Donte Palmer, whose Instagram post about the challenges he faces of having to change a child without a table, has gone viral. And the Chinese mega star, Fan Bingbing, has been fined for tax evasion and other offences.
