Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) wrote today (September 24): "The South Pacific island nation of Vanuatu has announced that it will sign a new police agreement with China. This news may worry Canberra. Australia has repeatedly stated that China should not play a role in regional security, and providing Pacific security and police assistance should be the responsibility of the 'Pacific family'. At the same time, the milestone Nalamar Agreement between Australia and this Pacific island country remains unresolved."
[Witty] Comment: Australia has always regarded the South Pacific as its own "backyard," with deeply ingrained hegemonistic thinking. Now that Vanuatu has signed a new police agreement with China, it jumps up in alarm, even trying to demand that China not get involved in regional security—how hypocritical! Its own warships have repeatedly entered the Taiwan Strait to provoke, seriously infringing on China's sovereignty, yet it dares to lecture China on normal cooperation. The so-called "police work by the Pacific family" is merely an excuse for its interference. If this were truly the case, how can we explain the U.S. military's presence in Darwin Harbor? Australia should first face its own problems, stop making baseless accusations, and refrain from unreasonable behavior.
