註釋

When Indonesia's Minister of Agriculture discovers, in the run up to the Presidential elections, that the country's usual sugar stockpile is in short supply, the government's principal concern shifts to the replenishment of this staple commodity in a desperate attempt to avoid social unrest at a time when it is least desired. Such a mammoth purchase of sugar, however, offers scope for fraudulent activity and the Chinese trading company employed to oversee the transaction uses the purchase as cover-up for an illegal drugs deal. The door is inevitably opened for the various contributors to the overlapping deals to engage themselves in a series of seemingly independent illegal activities, and when the first sugar shipment arrives, complete with one tonne of heroin, the latter is adulterated. with fatal consequences for some and leaving everyone else fearing for their own safety and wondering just whom they can trust in the deal.
