The line graph illustrates the proportions of urban residents in four Asian nations from 1970 to 2020 and future projections for the periods between 2030 and 2040.
Looking from an overall perspective, it is readily apparent that the figures for populations in all countries will witness upward trends. Malaysia had and is predicted to have the most urban citizens throughout the years in question, with the exception of isolated periods between 1970 and 1990.
The figure for individuals living in urban areas in the Philippines was most significant around 32% in 1970, followed closely by Malaysia at precisely 30%. Over the next twenty years, both figures rose and switched positions, with the Philippines reaching nearly 50% and Malaysia roughly 45% in 1990. From 1990 to 2010, Malaysia’s proportion surged and surpassed the Philippines’ to become the highest figure at approximately 75%, whereas the latter declined gradually to 43%. The data related to urban residency in Malaysia is expected to continue its growth to end at over 80%, while the Philippines will recover to finish at above 60%.
The percentage of people residing in urban areas in Indonesia was recorded as the lowest figure at 14%, trailing behind Thailand at almost 20%. Both proportions experienced upward trajectories, accounting for the same percentage of about 28% in 2000. Thailand’s figure thereafter plateaued until 2020 before climbing to 47% in the final year. Similarly, Indonesia’s figure will skyrocket to end at slightly over 50%.
