Voting begins in tiny Tuvalu in election that reverberates from China to Australia

Funafuti, the main island of the nation state of Tuvalu, is photographed from a Royal New Zealand airforce C130 aircraft as it approaches the tiny South Pacific nation.

The elections come as China, the U.S. and others wrangle for influence in the South Pacific region. Tuvalu is one of 12 countries that have official diplomatic relations with Taiwan.
