The bar chart illustrates the expected and actual number of people living in three mega cities in the world in 1990 and 2000.
Overall, it was forecast in 1990 that the population of all these cities would grow significantly. However, the actual figure show less noticeable change. In reality, while Jakarta and São Paulo underwent a similar upward trend in their population, Shanghai saw a slight drop.
In 1990, Jakarta had 8 million inhabitants. This figure was predicted to nearly double after 10 years but actual number was 3 million lower than, which means this city continued to have the smallest population of the three. Likewise, the number of inhabitants in São Paulo in 2000 was 18 million – a considerable growth from 15 million in 1980, instead of rising to the predicted 24 million.
By contrast, Shanghai was home to approximately 13 million residents in 1990. Despite the projection of a 4 million rise, the figure declined by 1 million in 2000.
