The provided illustration of the line graph does delineate some information about the percentage of the number of residents living in cities in four distinct Asian countries, such as the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailaind, and Indonesia over the period of 50 years, from 1970 to 2020, with projections for 2030 and 2040.
A glance at the graph reveals that all the figures increased in population except for the Philippines, which fluctuated throughout the time.
It is conspicuous that Malaysia have witnessed a dramatic increase of approximately 45 percent, from 1970 to 2020, and this tendency will have been preserved by the end of 2040, reaching nearly 80 percent. Moreover, the number of city dwellers in Thailand and Indonesia intersected in 2000, after which Thailand have reached a platue, while Indonesia have grown significantly by about 20 percent, and both of the figures will have been rising almost by the same value by 2040. Furthermore, the Philippines saw some ups and downs, climbing and then plunging to 50 and 40 percent respectively; however, the predictions show that the figure will notice an upward trend by around 1.5 times.
