I think it is Japan because it is known as the LAND OF THE RISING SUN!

New Zealand is definately the place it all begins - Fiji changed there Daylight Savings to be the first place to see in the Millenium but history will always record NZ as having that honour. If you were to try and celebrate as many New Years as possible you would have to fly fast - but in reality your best bet would be celebrate here for a good few hors then catch some sleep on a flight to Hawaii where they really know how to party and do it all over again
