Fiji Cabinet Approves Six-Month Partnership With New Zealand Security Intelligence Service to Review Intelligence Structure

• Fiji’s cabinet approved a six-month partnership with the New Zealand Security Intelligence Service (NZSIS), funded by Wellington, to assess Fiji’s intelligence structure and recommend reforms, Fiji’s government said in a statement on Wednesday.
• Fiji did not identify a specific threat behind the review, according to the report. The NZSIS did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
• The U.S. Embassy in Suva said earlier this week it had alerted Fiji and a regional organisation based in Suva to a suspected network compromise between July and August 2026, and said hackers linked to China maintained access to the organisation’s network for several days, according to the report.
• China’s embassy in Suva rejected the allegations in a statement on Tuesday, saying Beijing opposed hacking and the politicisation of cybersecurity, according to the report.
