 Annual
Core Indicators (last update: 21 April 2009).The online
database contains time series data for
selected indicators covering a wide range
of issues in relation to the secretariat's
work: demography, migration, education,
health, poverty, gender, employment, economy,
government finance, employment, transport,
and environment.
Among other indicators, this database
contains data published in the Statistical
Yearbook for Asia and the Pacific 2008.
The time series are generally longer and
more complete in the database. Because
of different presentation requirements,
the indicator names in the database and
the Yearbook may be slightly different.
