Residents will be asked to provide basic information, including their name, gender, age, education level, as well as details about their employment, marital status, family births and deaths, and child welfare.
The population panel surveys, an effort to strengthen population statistics work and dynamic monitoring, constitute a critical supplement to population sample surveys in non-census years.
