Papua New Guinea is currently a member of Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation and has observer status in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Papua New Guinea’s exports to China, for example, increased from $122 million in 2001 to $817 million in 2011 on the back of increasing Chinese demand for Papua New Guinea’s petroleum products. Meanwhile the exports of Solomon Islands to China, dominated by timber logs, reached $348.4 million in 2011.
