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.
