APCCA Statistics

Correctional Statistics for Asia and the Pacific, 1994
(obtained for the 14th Asian and Pacific Conference of Correctional Administrators)

Prisoners in Asia and the Pacific, 1994

The Advisory Committee of the Asia and Pacific Conference of Correctional Administrators (APCCA), at a meeting held in Kuala Lumpur in August 1993, requested that the Australian Institute of Criminology (AlC) endeavour to collect and compile relevant correctional statistics from the region for distribution at the APCCA meetings.

Subsequently, the co-operation of all nations in the region was sought and a draft bulletin was prepared for the Hong Kong conference. This has been now extended with the addition of more data. The statistical tables included in this publication represent a summary of the information that was received. Unless otherwise indicated the data reflect the situation as at mid 1994.
