Southeast Asia is a diverse region, which hosts a broad range of political systems, ecosystems, economies, religions, ethnicities and languages. This diversity has resulted in the need for development, which coexists with urbanization. Southeast Asian countries have rapidly transitioned from a largely rural to a largely urban society, which has led to a rapid expansion in urban lands. These countries have the potential to change their economies by ensuring greater urbanization and joining the ranks of wealthier nations in terms of livability and prosperity. This book studies and analyses the impact of urban-rural development in Southeast Asia. It presents this complex subject in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. This book will serve as a valuable source of reference for graduate and postgraduate students.
