South and East Asian countries such as Thailand, Burma, Malaysia, Vietnam, India, Ceylon (Sri Lanka), Indonesia, East Pakistan, the Philippines, all gained exposure to US goods (merchandise) and services via the transiting US Navy and US Air Force as bases and visits were established. US bases occurred in the Philippines, South Vietnam, Thailand, and (un-official bases in Lao's and Cambodia), with temporary stays/visits in Indonesia and Ceylon (Sri Lanka). This exposure to US presence, would lay the FOUNDATION for future world trade and economic growth in industry, technology, world travel, and agricultural advancements.
