HEARTLAND SPECIAL: Struck by quakes, floods and economic downturns, parts of provincial New Zealand are hurting bad. Today, they challenge New Zealand's poll-happy politicians to look beyond their cities to the 'real New Zealand'.

For 48 years Richard Ririnui has called Edgecumbe home. Now he is calling it quits on the town where he raised his six children.
