There are big questions being asked across the region \u2013 questions that go to the heart of how countries, peoples and regional organisations see themselves and how they relate to the rest of the world. And there are ongoing political, social, and economic challenges all of which are complex and complicated. Whilst outsiders may look for one-liners to explain what happens in our region, it is more important than ever that Pacific stories told by Pacific voices are at the forefront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Continuing COVID<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The extent to which Pacific populations are vaccinated will be the key to if and\/or when borders can be unlocked. Even in countries where the vaccine rollout has been very successful, there is little being said about when booster shots will be widely available. In countries where there is still much work to do in getting most people protected, the arrival of the Johnson and Johnson\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dailypost.vu\/news\/28-800-single-shot-vaccines-arriving-today\/article_4b3555b5-4969-5978-a9ab-6dcbc007f2a0.html\" target=\"_blank\">single-dose vaccines<\/a>\u00a0will be warmly welcomed. The low rate of vaccination in Papua New Guinea will continue to be a huge challenge for the country, especially if another wave of infections occurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whilst there may have been plans across the region to begin opening borders in the early part of 2022, they will likely be suspended until more is known about the Omicron variant. The third wave of COVID-19 infections is underway in\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fbcnews.com.fj\/news\/vaccination-protects-fijians-from-this-third-wave\/\" target=\"_blank\">Fiji<\/a>\u00a0in the wake of opening the borders to tourists at the beginning of December 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Economic hardship is likely to continue. Tourism businesses will be hard hit as before, and exporters will continue to face&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fijitimes.com\/new-subsidy-program-targeted-at-pacific-exporters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">higher freight costs<\/a>. Labour mobility will provide an avenue for some to earn money and provide remittances to their families. We are already seeing strong participation in the two-year&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dfat.gov.au\/geo\/pacific\/economic-prosperity-in-the-pacific\/australia-kava-pilot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">import trial of kava<\/a>&nbsp;into Australia which will be of benefit in producing countries such as Fiji, Vanuatu, and Samoa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Elections to watch<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Election watchers will have plenty to keep them occupied during 2022, as the people of Fiji, Nauru and Papua New Guinea head to the polls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Fiji, the incumbent Fiji First government will be looking to secure a third successive win. If successful, that will mean Bainimarama will be looking at having led the country for 20 years (2006 \u2013 2026), initially as head of a military government and then as an elected Prime Minister. Rifts in the opposition will create extra challenges in unseating Fiji First. Another former coup leader,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theaustralian.com.au\/world\/fijian-strongman-sitiveni-rabuka-back-to-take-on-china\/news-story\/65c2de88a45e076ea2c0026de4ca9d41\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sitiveni Rabuka<\/a>, will be a formidable opponent once again and it will likely be a close-run contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/what-does-2022-have-store-png-martyn-namorong\/\" target=\"_blank\">Papua New Guinea<\/a>, the elections will be held against a backdrop of serious economic and budget constraints, the ongoing impacts of COVID-19 in an unvaccinated population, and concerns about safety and electoral probity. Former Prime Minister, Peter O\u2019Neill, is already positioning himself to play a big role and is certainly a contender to replace James Marape once the votes have been counted and the horse-trading has finished. A much-needed\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nso.gov.pg\/2021\/07\/09\/deferral-of-the-2021-national-population-and-housing-census\/\" target=\"_blank\">census<\/a>\u00a0has again been delayed, which means the accuracy of electoral rolls will be in question once more. Concerns about security during the elections are already running high, with reports of\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/postcourier.com.pg\/guns-in-high-demand\/\" target=\"_blank\">guns being smuggled into highland areas<\/a>\u00a0in advance of the polls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Unfinished business<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There remain several issues yet to be resolved and they will continue to be challenging and possibly provoking during the coming year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The future line-up of the Pacific Islands Forum (PIF) will be a major talking point. The twelve-month notice period of withdrawal is nearing its end for all five Micronesian members who\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/devpolicy.org\/regionalism-in-retreat-20210212-1\/\" target=\"_blank\">signalled their departures during 2021<\/a>. There has been a lot of work done to try and achieve a change of heart. However, other than a possible shift in thinking in Marshall Islands, this does not appear to have been successful. A proposed \u2018in person\u2019 meeting of the PIF leaders at the beginning of February will be the last best chance to prevent the walkout but whether that will take place remains questionable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to questions of self-determination and independence, there are some major sticking points to overcome. In Bougainville,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/postcourier.com.pg\/374158-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">President Toroama<\/a>&nbsp;has made it abundantly clear that he wants the issue of his people\u2019s independence resolved sooner rather than later. However, the June elections in PNG are likely to put talks and planning on hold until later in the year. The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/electionwatch.unimelb.edu.au\/articles\/third-time-has-little-charm-new-caledonias-referendum-on-independence\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">disappointing third referendum<\/a>&nbsp;on independence in New Caledonia that was held in December 2021 has left the French territory in something of a political limbo. With the independence-focused groups insistent that they will not take part in any talks until after the French presidential elections, the focus for the early part of 2022 will be ensuring that tensions do not escalate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As 2022 gets underway, there is much for Pacific leaders, scholars and analysts to ponder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"author label\">AUTHOR<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>Dr Tess Newton Cain<\/strong>\u00a0is the Project Lead of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.griffith.edu.au\/asia-institute\/pacific-hub\">Pacific Hub<\/a>\u00a0and is an Adjunct Associate Professor at the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.griffith.edu.au\/asia-institute\">Griffith Asia Institute<\/a>.
