Timeline

2017

Hau'ofa's broadcasts become popular and highly influential throughout rural and urban areas of Papua New Guinea with low literacy rates. According to Martyn Namorong, one of PNG's leading writers and social commentators, Hau'ofa helped to shape national policy on key issues by exposing residents in rural areas to important, national issues. As Namorong explained to RNZI following Hau'ofa's death in 2017, "Levels of literacy are very low. In some parts of PNG you only have 30% of the population that can read and write...So radio and oral culture is still very strong. It's just about someone being able to negotiate that space and win the audience over. And that's where the gap is."

Hau'ofa suffered from a lengthy illness with kidney failure for over year, as well as high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease. He spent much of February 2017 hospitalized at Pacific International Hospital in Port Moresby. On March 2, following his wishes, Hau'ofa was released from the hospital and flown by Helifix medical helicopter to his wife's home village of home village of Iare in Kairuku District, Central Province.
