Abstract: A Report for the Forum of Pacific Countries (2010), called " A Model Regulatory and Policy Framework for Forum Island Countries ", presents a roadmap for a new competition and regulatory policy suited to the island countries of the region. There is a lot to be learned from this document for the French territories of the Pacific region. The present article stresses the seriousness and the complete coverage of the issues in the proposed plan of reform. The major points are highlighted in the perspective of their application in the case of French Polynesia, especially the necessity of implementing the three pillars of antitrust laws, the absolute need of an independent agency to enforce the rules, and finally the impossibility of obtaining a good outcome without a more general move towards a removal of protectionist barriers and archaic price control and regulation.
