The World Bank says it will provide Samoa with an extra USD $20 million to help it recover from Cyclone Evan.
Evan struck in December 2012 and killed five people, displaced about 4000 and damaged or destroyed hundreds of houses.
The cyclone also damaged transport infrastructure, energy plants, tourism facilities and crops.
The World Bank's Franz Drees-Grosse told Radio Australia a damage assessment they did in conjunction with Samoa's government in January showed the economic impact of the disaster was enormous.
