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.
