There have been a few recent earthquakes in PNG’s surrounding islands.  Currently New Brittan was hit with a 7.2 magnitude quake.  You can follow this at the earthquake-report.com.  Papua New Guinea  frequently has earthquakes, as well as occasional volcanic eruptions.   The greatest concern when there is a earthquake is the possibility of a tsunami following shortly after.

This most recent quake happened at 6:30 AM local time.  Could you imagine this being your alarm clock?
