It has been more than three months since 27 people were lost at sea off Papua New Guinea's East New Britain Province.

They'd set out on a family day trip, an island picnic.

Only two people survived, but the families left behind are still calling for answers.

Dessie Sialis, lost her brother, Manu, his wife and their three children.

She says they are still in mourning and have not heard a word from authorities.

"I want closure," she said. "We really want to know what actually happened, because there are a lot of rumpus, there are a lot of stories."
