China has been making an extremely strong push in Palau and the FSM, where the US is getting weary of the pocketbook drain. Japan funded the road around Pohnpei, presumably in exchange for fishing rights. China's interests are a combination of fishing, tourist expansion, and political maneuvering, esp. with regards to Taiwan.

The Mormons can make strong pushes in the Pacific because no other religion puts in the money and effort that they do. Not really much different than going to the Philippines or rural US where the Catholic/Christian church is the nicest building in the town by a longshot.

Re: obesity, Samoa tried to ban turkey tails, a notoriously fatty food, and the WTO stomped on their heads until the ban was overturned. Unfortunately, fatty unhealthy poo poo survives the long shipping times far better than vegetables, and farming local vegetables in a salty, super-humid, high temperature climate is difficult.

On the other hand, goons can finally have a chance to own Goon Island for reals, in Kosrae:
