The Indonesian government says it is looking into claims one of its officials attempted to bribe and intimidate an RNZ journalist.
Kelvin Anthony, who works for RNZ Pacific, was attending the Melanesian Spearhead Group leaders' meeting in Port Vila last month when an official attempted to give him cash at the conclusion of an interview.
He says he felt intimidated by the encounter, which came after Indonesian officials had complained they did not like what RNZ had published on West Papua, saying it lacked balance.
Anthony spoke to Corin Dann.
