THE national census takes place once every 10 years and records both Malaysians and foreigners living in the country. However, it does not just calculate total population, density and distribution. In fact, the data collected in the census will be vital in the drafting of national policies for the next decade and more.
The ongoing Malaysia Population and Housing Census (Census 2020) is a valuable opportunity for the public to directly participate in national policymaking. Census 2020 collects information on age, gender, labour force, Internet penetration, availability of public facilities and recreational areas, transportation, connectivity, efficiency of sanitation services, and much other information to determine the distribution of government allocations.
