On May 12, 2011, the Chinese donated 205 books to The University of the South Pacific (USP) library at the Laucala Campus in Suva, Fiji to promote bilateral relations and cooperation.

The books are written in Chinese/English and Chinese/French and are about Chinese mythology, civilization, heritage, history, geography, myths, legends, poetry, environment, climate change, language, art, and music. The books are meant to give a greater understanding and appreciation of China – its peoples, its cultures, its economic growth, and way of life.
