The given line graph illustrates the rate of students between 18 and 25 years old studying in universities in four distinctive countries namely Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and Thailand from 1961 to 2011.
As is revealed from the line chart, it is obvious that the number of people aged 18 to 25 in universities in all four countries follows the upward trend though there were differences among them over the period of 50 years.
To be more specific, in 1961, the quantity of university students from 18 to 25 years old in Thailand was the highest with under 25%, tremendously higher than that in Malaysia, nearly 10% higher than Singapore. This figure then declined slightly by about 5% after 30 years before increasing dramatically and reach the highest point of almost 43% in 2011. Besides, the ratio of Singaporeans aged 18 to 25 studying in university experienced a double growth to 30% in 1971, from the initial figure of 15% in 1961 and then continue rose significantly by around 10% during the last 40 years of the period.
On the other hand, standing at 2 and 7%, the percentage of citizens aged 18 to 25 in universities in Malaysia and the Philippines witnessed a considerable rise to 15% in 1991, respectively. Finally, while the number of Malaysians from 18 to 25 years old going to the university leveled off at 15%, the figure for the Philippines saw a slight increase of approximately 5% throughout the last 20 years of the period shown in the graph.
