Statement by Dato' Sri Dr. Noorul Ainur Mohd Nur representative of Malaysia at the 47th session of the Commission on Population and Development on agenda 4:general debate on national experience in population matters: assessment of the status of implementation of the programme of action of the international conference on population and development, New York, 8 April 2014. |
| Abstract |
Malaysia shares the view that the current state of the world’s population is one of unprecedented diversity and change, reflected in new patterns of fertility, mortality, migration, urbanisation and ageing. The continuation and consequences of these population trends will present both opportunities and challenges for the formulation and implementation of the post-2015 development agenda and for the achievement of all internationally agreed development goals. |
