It is understood by diplomatic back channels that Peru, Ecuador, and Chile are aligned with the Sphere now and that the Colombian civil war involves parties that may give that country eventually.

At the 25th "Asia Looks Forward" conference in Signapore, there is much debate about how solidly the Sphere actually is. With Chinese and Korean citizens now gaining citizenship in Japan along with the rapid development of the economies in India and Indonesia, many in Jakarta and New Delhi wonder if they would not be better on their own and out from under the eye of American spy satellites. Thailand's ongoing civil war is also proving problematic as Sphere military aid is the only thing preventing the rebels from overtaking the whole country. A proposal to cut off Hong Kong from its major source of fresh water, a reverseos osmosis plant located in China, would be jeopardized by any lack of Sphere unity, and Japan will not act unless it can get everyone on board.

In Georgetown KY, the Toyota corporation decides to give enough funding to the school system to permit them to run to Sphere standards, including the teaching of Japanese as the secondary language.
