I don't see a way to link to the segment (full programme at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b05rkpzf http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b05rkpzf - Nepal is the first 10 minutes). The problem is firstly a lack of actual communication mechanisms, as the telephone network has been knocked out, and then I believe a lack of physical access, as the earthquake has blocked and destroyed roads, so they can't get the aid out of Kathmandu into the remote areas by lorry. Aid is backing up at the airport and airports in neighbouring countries; I look at the technology bandied around on HN and wonder why it (or the previous generation) cannot be used on the ground to help.
