Canada is currently playing a key role in the Colombo Plan as a nation materially helping to rebuild the shattered economies of south-east Asian countries. With $25.4 millions earmarked this year for Capital Assistance projects, Canadian financing and know-how have figured in such developments as new hydro plants for India, irrigation and land drainage in Ceylon, manufacturing plants for Pakistan. In the 4 years since the Plan's inception, Canada's dollar contributions have totalled $102 million. Under the Technical Co-operation program, 75 globe trotting men and women from south-east Asia are presently in Canada receiving training in agriculture, science, medicine and industry. 260 trainees have already carried back important technical knowledge to be applied in solving the problems of their nations.
