Burma: Pegu falls unceremoniously to a 3:1 attack. I should have listened to my instincts and given up southern Burma. Defending Pegu looks good on paper but the troops can't hold. While the raw AV of early CW units look good, it is probably better to treat them like Chinese units initially. Their adjusted AV is just awful.
Now it becomes a race to extract the defeated troops from the deathtrap called Rangoon. Allied HQ hasn't decided yet if there should be another stand in the Mandalay area or not.
Malaya: The IJA is advancing towards the first real defensive line - Temuleoh (?) - Kuala Lumpur. Both bases are held by a division equiv. so a delay of a few days here should hopefully be possible.
DEI: On Borneo 2 IJA infantry battalions advanced overland from Kuching and captured Sambas. I have to assume that they will continue their march through the jungle to clear out that part of Borneo.
On Java the pocket around Buitenzorg is all but closed. The AV of the KNIL army is pretty atrocious by now but the bad terrain has so far prevented their surrender. Still, it is only a matter of time.
Finally the former defenders of Kendari are holed up in Kolaka where the Sasebo 1st SNLF is busy digging them out.
China: Tsiaotso falls and a few more Chinese corps are retreated in the north. [>:]
Luzon: An undefended Manila falls and 100+k fuel is lost. On the bright side a resupply convoy has made it to Bataan bringing much needed supplies. I doubt that there will be a chance to sneak in another one though.

Also a word of advice for all other allied players: if you haven't already done so, find the xAP Queen Elizabeth and use her for transport missions (preferably in "safe" waters) while she is available. That ship is amazing.
