On 17 July, 1998, a magnitude of Mw 7.1 earthquake occurred at or near the cost of eastern Sandaun Province, Papua New Guinea. It was closely followed by the tsunami which destroyed the villages of Sissano, Warapu, Arop and Malol, killing at least 2,200 people. This study clarifies the disaster management of this disaster especially focusing on the relief and recovery phase from the view points of the logistics and operation. The catholic mission made a important role for the relief activities and many international relief teams participated. The fear of victims against the tsunami is the first factor of the recovery process and all the affected villages have moved to the resettlement site located in inland. The land ownership was troublesome for selecting the resettlement sites.
