Perubahan penduduk Wilayah Metropolitan Lanjutan Klang-Langat, Malaysia, 1957-2000

Population of the Klang-Langat Extended Metropolitan Region (EMR) is changing very rapidly. The dynamics of the EMR population may be explained in several ways including its pattern of distribution, ethnic composition, rate of growth and levels of urbanisation of settlements in the peri-urban areas....

High rates of natural increase and in-migration among the Malays to the EMR particularly the fringe areas, have contributed significantly to the process of urbanisation and rapid growth of small urban centres in the outer zones of the region. It is also found that the rate of growth of population in the core area of the EMR is on the downwards trend. In contrast the rate of growth of population in the fringe areas of the region is steadily increasing. The findings tend to support the view that expansion of an EMR occurs via the process of urbanisation of people living in the fringe zones driven by the development of manufacturing and service activities in the area.
