Description
On December 19, 2006, the Chinese Ambassador to the Federated States of Micronesia officially donated office equipment to the editorial office of the Kaelehlie Press, a leading newspaper. The donation included computers, desks, and bookshelves. The value of this donation is unknown. The Kaselehlie Press newspaper is the only one that circulates throughout the country. This non-governmental organization struggles with high printing costs and tight budgets, so they needed help updating their office equipment. China offered their assistance in an effort to curry favor with the journalists portraying Chinese influence to the population.
