Abstract: The eleventh annual meeting of the Consultative Committee of the Colombo Plan for Cooperative Economic Development in South and Southeast Asia was held in Jogjakarta, Indonesia, November 11–14, 1959. Besides adopting its eighth annual report, the Committee approved the inclusion of Singapore as a full member and decided to continue the Colombo Plan for another five years from 1961, the date it was scheduled to end, with the understanding that the 1964 meeting of the Consultative Committee would consider a further extension. A communiqu'e issued at the close of the meeting noted evidence of the quickening pace of economic activity, recovery in agricultural production in many countries in the area, and growth in real per capita income. In addition, the Committee observed that the large increase in population was one of the most pressing problems faced by the area and committed itself to seek more information on this problem for inclusion in subsequent reports.
