The graph gives information about the percentage of the population if four different Asian countries living in cities between 1970 and 2020 with additional predictions for 2030 and 2040.

The line graph describes the changing

city

population

in four Asian countries in percentages from 1970 to 2020, with projections for 2030 and 2040.

Overall

, it can be seen that there has been a significant rise in the percentage of the

population

residing in cities in all four countries, and

this

increase is expected to continue into the future.

Malaysia

emerges as the frontrunner with the highest proportion of

city

residents compared to the others;

however

,

Thailand

has the lowest

population

. In 1970, the number of residents who lived in

Malaysia

and the Philippines stood at approximately 30% of the total

population

. By 2020,

Malaysia

had experienced substantial growth, reaching almost 80% of the total

population

,

while

the Philippines had fluctuated between 30% and 50%.

Thailand

had nearly 20% of its

population

in cities in 1970,

whereas

Indonesia had about 15%.

On the other hand

, Indonesia's

city

population

had grown rapidly, surpassing 50% by 2020;

in contrast

,

Thailand

had reached roughly 30%. Looking ahead, projections indicate that the

city

's

population

in all countries will show upward growth. By 2040, it is predicted that

Malaysia

will have the highest percentage of

city

residents at over four-fifths, followed by Indonesia at around two-thirds. The figures for the Philippines and

Thailand

are predicted to be more than half and half, respectively.
