Identification of an enumerator
The Statistics and Census Service (DSEC) will conduct the Pilot Survey of the 2016 Population By-census from 11 to 25 August for a period of 15 days, in order to test the various operational aspects of the 2016 Population By-census. The Pilot Survey covers some 2,200 housing units in the districts of Doca do Lamau and Fai Chi Kei. All selected housing units would have received a notification letter from DSEC prior to the start of the Survey. The Population By-census is a large-scale household sample survey conducted in between two population censuses, which aims to collect up-to-date information for updating the population statistics of Macao and for keeping track of population changes. To facilitate smooth operation of the Pilot Survey, DSEC officials visited the Macau General Union of the Neighborhood Associations (UGAMM) and the Property Management Business Association Macao early this month, to introduce the Pilot Survey and listen to the comments and suggestions of the associations. All enumerators, wearing a yellow Pilot Survey uniform and carrying a valid Enumerator Identity Card and a Pilot Survey satchel, will visit the selected housing units to collect data during the Pilot Survey period. Households may choose to complete the e-Questionnaire available at the 2016 Population By-census webpage (www.dsec.gov.mo/Intercensos2016) between 11 and 21 August. All personal and household data collected will be kept in strict confidence and used solely for statistical purposes. DSEC calls for the support of the public to provide accurate information. To verify the identity of an enumerator or make an appointment for interview, please call the Pilot Survey Hotline at 8809 8809.
