project to 2040.

Overall

, it is obvious there is an upward trend among countries over the period, with Malaysia reporting the leading figure over most of the period. Notably, Indonesian citizens witnessed significant growth in comparison with the remaining countries. Looking at the given graph for more detail, one can see that the rate of Philipines residents was just over 30%, which is ranked in the leading, as opposed to Thailand's figure, at about 15% in 1970. The figure of Thailand remained stable, at about 30%, during 30 years before a significant growth is predicted to end at about 50% in 2040. A fluctuation period was witnessed in the Philippines and in 2040 the proportion of citizens will be approximately 55%. In terms of Malaysia and Indonesia, the figures for the two nations were precisely 30% and only 12%, respectively, in 1970.
