Australia's most respected demographic expert, Charles Price, has published his projections: "the year 2020 would see some 2.7 million persons of unmixed Asian origin and about 3.9 million persons of part Asian ancestry; a Total Descent figure of 6.6 million persons of whole or part Asian origin; that is, 26.7% of the total Australian population" (16). So, it is expected that in just over 20 years, over a quarter of Australia's population will be of Asian origin!!!
