The successful planning and implementation of the census activities, followed by the timely release of the provisional results in August 2014 and now the main results in May 2015, is a clear testimony of the Government’s resolve to publish all information collected from respondents in accordance with the Population and Housing Census Law No. 19 of 2013. It is my hope that the main census results will be interpreted correctly and will effectively inform the planning and decision-making processes in our quest for national development. The census structures put in place, including the Central Census Commission, Census Committees and Offices at all administrative levels and the International Technical Advisory Board (ITAB), a group of 15 experts from different countries and institutions involved in censuses and statistics internationally, provided the requisite administrative and technical inputs for the implementation of the census.

The Registration will be valid from August 5, 2018 until August 5, 2020. Mann Yadanarpon Airlines’ Chairman said, “Safety is irrefutably paramount to an airline, therefore we are rigorous especially towards areas that impact on safety directly.

I appreciate the contributions from my fellow employees in upholding the safety standards of our airline, through Mann Yadanarpon Airlines Safety Management System (SMS) and Quality Management System (QMS), and uphold safety as the utmost priority at all times,” he added. “I congratulate Mann Yadanarpon Airlines on the renewal of its IOSA certification. Safety is the number one priority of our industry.” The IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA) programme was introduced in 2003 and is an internationally recognized and accepted evaluation system designed to access the operational management and control systems of an airline, which occurs every two years once the airline successfully completes the first audit.

The successful planning and implementation of the census activities, followed by the timely release of the provisional results in August 2014 and now the main results in May 2015, is a clear testimony of the Government’s resolve to publish all information collected from respondents in accordance with the Population and Housing Census Law No. 19 of 2013. It is now my hope that the main results both Union and each of the State and Region reports will be interpreted correctly and will effectively inform the planning and decision-making processes in our quest for national and sub-national development. The census structures put in place, including the Central Census Commission, Census Committees and officers at the State/Region, District and Township levels and the International Technical Advisory Board (ITAB), a group of 15 experts from different countries and institutions involved in censuses and statistics internationally, provided the requisite administrative and technical inputs for the implementation of the census.
