US, China aim to boost Pacific influence



Published on Aug 16, 2012 by
Territorial disputes in the South China Sea have divided ASEAN and caused friction between China and the United States.

But that's not the only place in the Asia-Pacific where the world's two biggest powers are competing for influence.

Later this month Pacific Island leaders will hold their annual forum in the Cook Islands.

Both the US and China are sending powerful delegations and, for the first time, an American Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will attend.

Pacific correspondent Sean Dorney reports.

  1. Howdy, I do believe your site might be having browser compatibility problems.
    Whenever I take a look at your blog in Safari, it looks fine
    however, if opening in I.E., it has some overlapping
    issues. I merely wanted to give you a quick heads up!

    Apart from that, wonderful site!
