One Island’s Secret to Bucking China's Corruption

China is salivating over the natural resources in Bougainville, a Pacific island of about 300,000 residents that is seeking independence from Papua New Guinea. China would like nothing more than to grease the hands of some government officials and walk away with the islands incredible resources. But one unique law and an incorruptible leader have prevented China from doing that. In this episode of China Unscripted, we look at what natural resources Bougainville has that China wants, how China tried to interfere in Bougainville's elections, and what happened when Chinese companies tried to use their old tactics to get at Bougainville's resources. Joining us in this episode is John Kuhns, the chairman and CEO of Numa Numa Resources in Bougainville, Papua New Guinea. He’s also the author of the book They Call Me Ishmael, a novel based on the real story of a rebel leader with big dreams for his island.
