Tonga 's capital Nuku’alofa was buzzing last week as leaders from across the Pacific region descended upon it for the annual Pacific Islands Forum (PIF) Leaders Meeting.
The PIF is made up of 18 members - mostly Pacific Island nations as well as Australia and New Zealand .
The big players are no longer just Australia and the US . China is a rising power in the Pacific and one that causes ructions.
Pacific Resilience Facility is the first Pacific-led climate and disaster resilience financing fund.
Australia has been the biggest donor so far, with A$ 100 m.
The fund still only has US$ 137 m in total - that's a long way from their target of US$ 500 m by 2026 .
