Chinese Investments Reshape Oceania: PRC Influence Rising

Investments from the People's Republic of China (PRC) in Oceania surge to $2.72 billion, reflecting the increasing presence of Chinese companies in the region. Nauru's decision to establish ties with the PRC after 20 years with Taiwan highlights this trend. Chinese companies play a vital role in the region's political and economic landscape, particularly in the construction and real estate sectors. They address infrastructure needs while gaining political influence, impacting the geopolitics of the Pacific.
