Foreign Correspondent: Cartel Paradise
Fiji is ground zero in the Pacific's drug crisis. Breathtaking quantities of methamphetamine and cocaine are being trafficked through Fiji and on to Australia, placing enormous pressure on authorities as they try to police more than a million square kilometres of ocean. It's also fuelling a wave of addiction and corruption as the drugs are now flooding into the Fijian community.
Foreign Correspondent has been given access to highly secure intelligence and naval facilities to see how they are trying to combat the smugglers. Through exclusive interviews with key insiders, senior reporter Stephanie March and ABC Fiji reporter Lice Movono lift the lid on how Fiji's most audacious meth plot came undone.
This is part one of a major two-part investigation looking at the drug crisis in the islands of the Pacific – a crisis which is turning paradise into a pit stop on a drug smuggling superhighway and ensnaring our neighbours in a sinister web of transnational crime. Over two weeks we will reveal who's involved, how they're doing it, and the enormous price the Pacific is paying for Australia's illicit drug problem.
