A woman sits on a fallen tree among what's left of her garden in Port Vila, Vanuatu, on Thursday, March 19, nearly a week after Cyclone Pam ripped through the island nation in the South Pacific. Vanuatu President Baldwin Lonsdale has called the storm a "monster," saying it has set back the development of his country, already one of the poorest in the region, by years.
