POISAWAN
Poisawan's a huge slum constructed in the ruins of a fort in the Waiyip district of Lanshiang, China. It's the place Alpha Team led by Chris infiltrated in pursuit of a B.O.W. with a stealth capability.
In the British colonial era of the early 1900s, the military and government of the Qing Dynasty that governed around Poisawan were removed, and it became a virtually lawless area with no oversight. Afterwards, refugees from all over built more temporary shelters one after another. The unplanned enlargement produced a unique and complicated environment similar to a maze.
Just after the terror attack, it seems half the inhabitants of Poisawan immediately took shelter, but the whereabouts of the remaining half are unknown. Since none of them had family registers, the numbers are uncertain, but a note was found that provides a clue as to what happened to the missing residents.
It appears to be something written several days before the bioterrorism occurred.

"A very beautiful woman called Wong or something came to Poisawan. I went there just out of curiosity with a glimmer of hope and found they were appealing for help in some sort of new drug experiments, and was told they were assembling healthy young men. I asked how much the pay would be and they said it was quite a sum of money, enough to last a year easy. I dunno what sort of drug it is, but for that much money it's not a bad deal.
That reminds me, I'd heard rumors there was a woman going around experimenting with drugs and passing around compensation, but I wonder if that's this Wong. Though I'm a little scared of medical experiments, the pay's enticing. I think I'll take Wong up on her offer."

ポイサワン
ポイサワンは、中国・ランシャンのワイイプ地区内にある、城砦の跡地に建造された巨大なスラム街である。クリス率いるアルファチームが、ステルス性能を持つB.O.W.を追って潜入した場所。
1900年代前半のイギリスの植民地時代にポイサワン周辺を統治していた清国の軍や政庁が排除され、事実上、管理者のいない無法地帯となった。その後、各地から流民が次々とバラックを増設。無計画な増設は、迷路のように複雑な独特の環境を生み出した。
テロ直後、ポイサワンの住民のうち半数は速やかに避難したようだが、残り半数の行方が分かっていない。戸籍がない者たちばかりだったのでその数は定かではないが、行方不明の住人たちがどうなったか、その手がかりとなるメモが見つかっている。
バイオテロが発生する数日前に書かれたものらしい。

「ウォンとかいう、ずいぶんと綺麗な女がポイサワンにやって来た。若くて健康な男を集めている、というので、興味本位と淡い期待を持って行ってみたら、何やら新薬の実験に協力して欲しいとか呼びかけていた。報酬ははずむというので金額を聞いてみたら、確かに軽く一年は楽して過ごせるくらいの結構な額だ。どんな薬かは知らないが、これだけの金をもらえるんなら悪い話じゃない。
そう言えば、スラムに住んでる金のない連中に声をかけて、報酬を渡して薬の実験をして回ってる女がいると噂に聞いたが、このウォンがそれか。薬の実験ってんでちょっと怖いのはあるが、報酬は魅力的だ。俺は、ウォンの話に乗ってみようと思う」

BOSAWAN
Bosawan is a shantytown district located in the Chinese city of Waiyip built around the remains of a ruined fortress. Chris Redfield and Alpha Team chase a B.O.W. with a highly developed camouflage ability to this area.
In the early twentieth century, the area was a base of operations for British colonialism. The Emperor of China was able to rally the surrounding peoples to extirpate the British from their land. Following British abandonment, the areas of Bosawan lapsed into a lawless zone. With no one in control, people started building dwellings haphazardly, until they piled up into the current labyrinthine mess the district is today.
After the terrorist attack, half of the residents in the area were able to evacuate, but the whereabouts of the rest are unknown. However, a memo was found giving hints as to what may have happened to them. It was supposedly written several days before the attack.

A beautiful woman named Wong showed up in Poisawan recently.
She said she was looking for young, healthy men, so I approached her with interest. It seems that she had been asking around for people like myself who would be interested in participating in testing new medications. The amount of money she was offering is enough to live simply off of for a year. I don't know what kind of medicine they're testing, but you can't beat that price.
Testing new medicine sounds a little scary, but I can't help but think about that money. I think I'll take Wong up on her offer.
