Description

The rate of urbanisation will accelerate in the years ahead.

The massive influx of people to cities will result in the demand for more services, expending more resources and generating more waste.

The forces of globalisation and better connectivity will hasten this urbanisation process.

Although the developed and developing countries in East Asia are at different stages of development, they have to grapple with the common challenge of improving the quality of life for urban residents and making cities liveable.

This book brings together a collection of articles that traces the process of urbanisation in selected countries in East Asia, including the achievements and challenges encountered.

It seeks to promote the sharing of best practices and experiences that can be a reference for governments and relevant stakeholders to facilitate the process of urbanisation that brings about the greatest benefits to residents and lessens the negative impact on the environment.
