A DESCRIPTION OF THE TRENDS IN THE GRAPH
www.website.com
The line graph shows the rate of urbanisation in two countries, namely Indonesia and South Korea, from the mid-1960s to 2009.
In the mid-1960s, the rate of urbanisation in Indonesia was about 17% followed by a slight increase of 3% in 1969. Then the rate remained stable at around 20% for a ten-year period from 1969 to 1979. In the next fifteen years, there was a steady rise in the rate of urbanisation in this country. From 1995 to 2009, Indonesia’s urbanisation rate increaded sharply, reaching over 50%.
South Korea’s urbanisation rate was about 30% in 1969, roughly 10% higher than that of Indonesia. The rate went up sharply throughout the next thirty-year period to about 82% in 2005, and then levelled off towards 2009.
In conclusion, it is clear that while noth countries experienced a growth in their urbanisation rate, in South Korea it almost doubled by the end of the period.
