At the instigation of USA Australian Minister for Defence Industry& Minister for International Development and the Pacific Pat Conroy said there should be "no role" for China in policing the Pacific Islands, and Australia will train more local security forces to fill gaps, after Reuters reported Chinese police are working in Kiribati.

That's strange isn't China one of the larger members of the Pacific region? And in a region where there are not insignificant numbers of Chinese people already domiciled?
The astute will be asking what role the CIA have had in instigating troubles in the region in order to create a SE Asia "Ukraine" & proxy war against another communist country? They are already long entrenched in Taiwan for just such an activity.
