The line graph illustrates the proportion of the population living in urban areas in the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia from 1970 to 2040, with projections for the future. Each country is represented by a distinct line style and marker.
The Philippines is shown with a dashed line and square markers. It started at around 35% in 1970 and rose steadily, reaching approximately 70% by 2040. Malaysia, represented by a dotted line with circular markers, began at roughly 30% in 1970 and experienced a significant increase, ending at about 75% in 2040.
Thailand, indicated by a dashed line with asterisks, had the lowest starting point at around 15% in 1970. It grew gradually, reaching around 60% by 2040. Finally, Indonesia, depicted by a solid line with triangles, began just below 20% in 1970 and rose steadily to about 65% by 2040.
The x-axis shows the years, ranging from 1970 to 2040 in ten-year intervals, while the y-axis represents the percentage of urban population, scaling from 0% to 90%.
Overall, the graph demonstrates a clear upward trend in urbanization for all four countries, with Malaysia projected to have the highest percentage of urban residents by 2040, followed by the Philippines, Indonesia, and Thailand.
