Abstract
Most countries in the Asia-Pacific region have experienced a rapid decline in mortality accompanied by a decline in fertility during the past three decades. Thus, in quite a few of those countries, there has been a change in the population structure resulting in a substantial increase in the number and proportion of the aged population.
