Chun-Li: [reporting on GNT World News] This is Chung-Li Zang with GNT News. A.N. forces are consolidating their hold on Shadaloo City today after a night of skirmishing that secured this key Southeast Asian port. But these soldiers aren't celebrating just yet. They know that defeating the ragtag city militia is one thing. Defeating the heavily-armed forces of General M. Bison is quite another. The Allied Nations forces know that they are dealing with a power-mad dictator, a dictator whose drug money has equipped his army with high-tech weaponry which some intelligence experts fear is equal to anything in the industrialized world. It's been only twenty-four hours since this dangerous and unpredictable warlord seized sixty-three Allied Nations relief workers from a village north of here. This self-styled general's ransom demands? An astonishing twenty billion dollars! Meanwhile, the location of the sixty-three hostages remains unknown. Of the fifteen Allied Nations troops assigned to guard the missing relief workers, twelve are confirmed dead and three are missing. Their whereabouts? Also unknown.
