Pacific News Member of Kiribati About the Country The island nation of Kiribati consists of 33 low-lying coral reefs and atolls , about 20 Approximate of which are permanently inhabited. Its total land area measures around 811 square kilometres (around 313 square miles). Islanders, called I-Kiribati, are predominantly of Micronesian origin. Tourists seek out Kiribati for its unspoiled charm, seemingly endless reefs , flats, and lagoons , and for the opportunity to view seabirds and marine life in a lush, tropical setting. More a sprinkling of far flung coral atolls than dry land, more deep blue ocean than sandy beach, more coconut trees than people, more Catholic church than ancient island beliefs. Kiribati (pronounced kee-ree-bus ) is far away, hard to get to, untouristed and deeply religious. It is also blessed with myriad reefs, billions of gaudy fish swarming over the coral, and host to plenty of WWII wrecks. The atolls are scattered over the equator so the weather is dependably warm, though often tempered by cool breezes off the sea. Tarawa, Kiribati's capital, may not be the Venice of the Pacific, but you do have to negotiate the main sights by causeway and inter-island boat. While modernity is rearing its ugly head, locals still welcome travellers as rarely seen curios. Although there's not much organised activity, it's not hard to find diving and game fishing in most places. And idyllic beaches are never far from anywhere if you want to escape with a book or a diving mask.

Extractions: About SPICIN - Organization History In October, 1987, the South Pacific Islands Criminal Intelligence Network, SPICIN, was created by the 17 police executives of the South Pacific Chiefs of Police Conference (SPCPC) during the 16th Annual Conference hosted by the American Samoa Government Department of Public Safety as a direct result of growing crime problems in the Pacific and a weak information sharing process among the affected nations. Commissioner Saul stated: "Experience has shown that the Pacific Island territories are used as transiting points for drug running to our larger neighbors of New Zealand and Australia. During the past decade, a number of major incidents are recorded on this. In fact, there currently is an operation going on in Vanuatu in this regard. There has always been a ready assistance forthcoming from our larger neighbors when hard intelligence has indicated a bilateral or multilateral crime problems. However, I am of the view that the time is fast approaching when there should be established a regional crime, drugs, intelligence unit to coordinate and disseminate information for unified action to combat what I see as increasing problems. I, therefore, suggest initial discussion in this form on location, staffing, funding, and terms of reference before approaching our respective governments to ask their approval for the establishment of such an organization and then assistance with accommodation and technology from our larger neighbors."
