I have, therefore, decided to expand this chronology with information, which are not connected with the Dutch East Indies Campaign only, but also includes other battlefields across the Pacific and Asia, which, that I have to admit, always attract my attention, and I always like to read books, documents or discussions about them.

By making this chronology, I was faced with several difficulties, one of them was lack of info. I don't posses many books with details about Philippines, Hong Kong or Malaya Campaigns (in fact none, which would directly describe the campaign itself), therefore, I was here entirely dependent on what I have found on the internet or was told by other people, contributors of this website (THANKS TO ALL); as far these campaigns are concerned. I have visited several pages, download couple of them, and used quite a few information for filling gaps on this chronology, especially for those campaigns I had very little info or knowledge about it.

I don't recall right now names of all webmasters whose websites I used as sources for this chronology, but still I would like to thank them all, including setting superb websites -- and if they ever visit this page let not hesitate to mail me, as I will be more than honoured to put their (your) name into Credits section or link the page.
