Notes In 2003, just thirty-nine per cent of percent of Asia's population had settled in urban areas, well below the global average of forty-eight percent. Asia's urban population is projected to rise to 2.61 billion by 2030, thus increasing the rate of urbanisation in the region to fifty-five per cent (United Nations 2004 United Nations. 2004. World urbanization prospects: the 2003 revision Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division, New York [Google Scholar], pp. 2-3)
