According to the MoU, the two sides will provide training of police personnel and meeting of working groups, and will also have technical cooperation in police science and the technology of police equipment. The MoU has an effective period of 5 years. Trainings are conducted by China's the Ministry of Public Security, and by 2015 around 60 Fijian officers had participated in training exchanges.

Staff comments

1. Information on the second group could not be found, and it is not clear which year it occurred in. 2. "驻斐济使馆举行安全防范知识讲座" establishes that the attaches were in Fiji for six months. A tour starting in July and ending in January was estimated based on tours from previous years.
