China–Fiji relations
The Republic of the Fiji Islands was the first Pacific Island country to establish diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China, in 1975.〔("Chinese vice president meets Fiji leaders on cooperative partnership" ), Xinhua, February 9, 2009〕 China established an embassy in Fiji in 1976, and Fiji opened its embassy in China in 2001.〔(Bilateral relations with Fiji ), Foreign Ministry of the People's Republic of China, December 9, 2003〕 Fiji's current ambassador to China is Commodore Esala Teleni, who in late 2010〔("Fiji names new China ambassador" ), Australian Broadcasting Corporation, November 15, 2010〕 replaced Sir James Ah Koy, who had served since 2007.〔("West puts squeeze on Fiji, China ups aid" ), Fijilive, May 17, 2008〕 China's ambassador to Fiji is Huang Yong.〔("New Chinese ambassador presents credentials to Fijian president" ), ''China Daily'', July 19, 2011〕
Sino-Fijian diplomatic and economic relations significantly increased in the first decade of the 21st century. In May 2009, Fiji's interim Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama described Fiji's relationship with China as "wonderful",〔("Despot for diversity: Bainimarama explains his mission" ), Graham Davis, ''The Australian'', May 3, 2009〕 while Vice-President of Fiji Ratu Epeli Nailatikau described the country's "relationship with the government and the people of the People's Republic of China as one of its most important".〔("China support for Fiji questioned" ), BBC, June 19, 2009〕

:''detailed article'': Sino-Pacific relations
Oceania is, to the People's Republic of China and the Republic of China (Taiwan), a stage for continuous diplomatic competition. Eight states in Oceania recognise the PRC, and six recognise the ROC. These numbers fluctuate as Pacific Island nations re-evaluate their foreign policies, and occasionally shift diplomatic recognition between Beijing and Taipei. In keeping with the "One China Policy", it is not possible for any country to maintain official diplomatic relations with "both Chinas", and this "either/or" factor has resulted in the PRC and the ROC actively courting diplomatic favours from small Pacific nations.〔("The Pacific Proxy: China vs Taiwan" ), Graeme Dobell, ABC Radio Australia, February 7, 2007〕 In 2003, the People's Republic of China announced it intended to enhance its diplomatic ties with the Pacific Islands Forum, and increase the economic aid package it provided to that organisation. At the same time, PRC delegate Zhou Whenzhong added: "()he PIF should refrain from any exchanges of an official nature or dialogue partnership of any form with Taiwan".〔("China announces initiatives to expand ties with PIF member countries" ), PRC embassy in Papua New Guinea, November 24, 2003〕 In 2006, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao announced that the PRC would increase its economic cooperation with Pacific Island States. The PRC would provide more economic aid, abolish tariffs for exports from the Pacific's least developed countries, annul the debt of those countries, distribute free anti-malaria medicines, and provide training for two thousand Pacific Islander government officials and technical staff.〔("China offers aid package to Pacific Islands" ), ''China Daily'', April 5, 2006〕 Also in 2006, Wen became the first Chinese premier to visit the Pacific islands, which the ''Taipei Times'' described as "a longtime diplomatic battleground for China and Taiwan". Similarly, according to Ron Crocombe, Professor of Pacific Studies at the University of the South Pacific, "There have been more Pacific Islands minister visits to China than to any other country".〔("Chinese Premier Wen to visit the Pacific Islands" ), ''Taipei Times'', April 3, 2006〕
