From the sounds of things, Australia (maybe in union with the
Kiwis) has/has a pretty good grip on the south Pacific and was in
the process of "pacifying" New Gunea (sp). (Rigger Black Book)

"Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good
of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better
to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral
busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep,
his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who
torment us for own good will torment us without end, for
they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
C.S. Lewis, God in the Dock
