Since the war Australia has become increasingly involved in the economie and political affairs of South-East Asia through both the Colombo Plan and the South-East Asia Treaty Organization. [...]Australians are becoming more interested in the peoples of the area, especially as there are now hundreds of young Asians studying at Australian schools and universities. Among these are H. Feith (Political Science), who submitted a Master of Arts thesis in 1954 on the "Political Developments in Indonesia in the Period of the Wilopo Cabinet, April 1952January 1953", and who is proceeding this year to America where he will work in the Southeast Asia Program, Department of Far Eastern Studies, Cornell University, on a doctoral dissertation about the first Indonesian elections 4 ; D. W. Fryer (Geography), who is writing a school textbook on Indonesia and has in preparation articles entitled "The Indonesian Sugar Industry", "Economie Problems in the 'Daerah Istimewa' of Jogjakarta", and "Indonesian Disunity and its Economie Consequences"; and P. Brett (Law), who made an extended survey of Brunei in 1956 at the invitation of the British Government to prpar a land code, a draft of which has now been completed 5. Because of the reasons enumerated in the opening paragraph of this report, ther has been a natural preoccupation with Indonesian political problems, and this has produced a certain prejudice against the more traditional linguistic and indological studies which have developed in the Netherlands.
