The journey back coincides with New Year celebrations for much of South-East Asia and the world soon learns that the 'Free Burmese Union' has chosen this time to launch a surprise uprising against the country's military junta. Rebels seize the properties of multinational companies invested there while the Burmese born former head of the U.N. leads last ditch peace negotiations in an effort to head off more violence.
