Notes

By the time this film was shot the war had been over for eight months. However, the destruction and economic dislocation caused by the war had led to a widespread food shortage. A Special Commissioner, Lord Killearn, was appointed to coordinate the South East Asian economy and food situation, and this conference forms part of the British response.
