Yangon, Myanmar September, 1998 1. Introduction

The 1997 Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES) was the second HIES to be conducted by the Central Statistical Organization (CSO) on a nation-wide scale. The first and foremost household expenditure survey was conducted by the CSO in I 989 on a nation-wide scale.

In the 1997 HIES, monthly household and yearly household incomes were collected ~ith breakdowns by type of income. Apart from the information on the household experiditure, information on the demographic characteristics, educational level, employment and employment status of the household members, housing conditions were also collected. Household expenditure was collected on several expenditure items in detail, which could be classified into two major groups: I. Food and Beverages 2. Non-food Items in Food and Beverages group were classified into 16 sub-groups and items in Non­ food group were classified into 17 sub-groups. List of these sub-groups is as shown in the . Appendix 1.1. The survey was designed to yield estimates at the Union, Urban and Rural levels, estimates at the State and Division levels, estimates for Yangon City and Mandalay City, estimates for other cities of States and Divisions and estimates at the selected townships level. The 1997 HIES covered 236 of the 322 townships and 45 townships were surveyed, comprising 36 sample townships and 9 additional townships.

I.I Objedives of the Survey The 1997 HIES was conducted to cover the whole of Myanmar with the following objectives: (l) To investigate into the changes in the level and patterns of consumption, spending and expenditures of households in accordance with the changing economy of Myanmar, (2) To assess the levels of living of the households, and (3) To be able to compute the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for all the cities and the. CPI which represents the whole country.

1.2 Historical Background Ernst Engel, a German statistician, was known to be the first to investigate into the relationship between consumption and income of families from the family budget data. Since that time, family budget data have been used not only to find out the income-consumption relations, but also the income elasticity of demand for any item of the family budget. The data have also been 2 used to find the percentage of income spent on food called the Engel ratio, as an indicator of level of living and the weights to be used in the construction of CPL Family budget surveys usually collected data on income, consumption and expenditure of families and were among the earliest surveys conducted in the developing countries. The Central Statistical and Economics Department conducted these surveys, later known. as the household expenditure surveys, in Myanmar as early as I 958. It was confined to Yangon City only. Since then, the household expenditure survey has been conducted 105 times till 1997. In some years, the survey was conducted in some townships including Yangon City sometimes.

2. Methodology

The 1997 HIES of Myanmar covered all States and Divisions but not all townships. The list of townships not included in the sampling frame is shown in Appendix 2.1. Survey sampling method was used to select sample townships, wards, villages and households.

The sampling frame was based on the list of townships, wards and village tracts for J 994 obtained from General Administration Department.

2.1 Sample Design The sample de.sign used was stratified three-stage random sampling design. (1) Stratification used was natural stratification. Yangon and Mandalay Divisions were each divided into 2 strata and the remaining divisions were formed into 12 strata totaling I 6 strata. Yangon Division was divided into 2 strata comprising townships in Yangon City and other townships. Mandalay Division was also divided into 2 strata comprising townships in Mandalay City and other townships. (2) First-stage sampling was based on townships. First-stage unit was a township and from the list of townships in each stratum, sample townships were selected by simple random sampling. Appendix 2.1.1 shows the number of townships, number of sample townships selected, predetermined additional townships and the number of townships to be surveyed in each stratum. The names of selected sample townships, additional townships and the names of townships to be surveyed in each stratum are shown in Appendix 2.1.2. (3) Second-stage sampling was based on wards and village tracts. Second-stage unit was a ward for the urban part of the sample township and a village tract for the rural part of the sample township. The sampling frame at this stage was prepared by listing all the wards in the urban part of the township to be surveyed an.d the village tracts in the rural 3

part of the township to be surveyed. 25% of the number of wards and 10% of the village tracts :were sampled by simple random sampling in each sample township .. (4) Third-stage sampling was based on households. Third-stage unit was a household and sample households were selected by simple random sampling from the list of households in each sample ward and in each sample village tract. The sampling frame at this stage was prepared by listing all households in each of the selected wards or village tracts.Appendix 2. 1.2 shows the number of sample urban households, sample rural households,and total sample households for each township to be surveyed in each State and Division. Appendix 2.1.3 shows the number of wards and village tracts, the number of sample wards and sample village tracts and the number of sample households for each township to be surveyed.

2.2 Sample Size Determination Based on the results of 1989 Household Expenditure Survey, the number of households to be sampled in each township was determined as, n = [4 C.V2 (X)] I d2 * Deff, where n =the number of sample households. d =margin oferror=0.01 C.V (X) =coefficient of variation under consideration (from past data) Deff = the design effect = 1

2.3 Sample Townships and Households It was targeted that reliable estimates with precision measures for the Union as well as for the States and Divisions should be obtained from this survey. Thus, sample townships and sample households were selected by random sampling methods. The targeted structure of the sample was as follows: 1. Number of strata = 16 2. Number of predetermined townships =9

3. Number of random sample townships = 36 4. Number of random sample households per township = 550 5. Total number of random sample households = 19800 6. Number of random sample households in predetermined townships= 5670 7. Total sample households = 25470. 4

2.4. Estimation Procedure

For each item, estimates are found at the township level, State and Division level and Union

level. At each level, estimates for Urban and Rural are computed separately.

Let,

Y h i j k be the value ofy for household k, ward or village tract j, township i, stratum h .

y h ij = t y h ij k . k = 1.2 ...... ! h ij

I h ij = number of sample households in ward or village tract j, township i, stratum h.

L h ij = number of total households in ward or village tract j, township i, stratum h.

,m i I h i = L. I h ij ,j = L 2,...... 11 J

L h i = L L h ij ,j = 1, 2 ,: ...... ,M hi j

m hi = number of sample wards or village tracts, township i, stratum h.

M hi = total number of wards or village tracts, township i, stratum h.

L11=2:Lhi I

,h = 1, 2, ...... ,1 6 for Urban ,h = 1,2, ...... ,l 4 for Rural

n h = number of sample townships for stratum h.

N h = number of total townships for stratum h.

2.4.1 Weighting

At the township level, the weights assigned are:

M L h .. W 11 1' = h i X IJ m hi I h ij

W h i c u ) is the weight used for urban part of township i, stratum h.

W h i ( r ) is the weight used for rural part of township i, stratum h.

The weights are shown in Appendix 2.4 ·5

2.4.2 Survey Estimates At the township level, the estimates are:

Y hi(u) = W hi(u)L L: Yhijk(u) J= 1,2, .... ,m h,(u) j k

Y h i ( r) = W h i ( r) L: L: Y h ij k ( r) j= 1,2, .... ,m h,(r) J k

Y hi= Y hi(u)+Y hi(r)

Y hi(u)+ Y hi(r)

L hi(u) + L hi(r)

where Lh i (u) and Lh i (r) are the total numbers of households in the urban and rural

parts of township i, stratum h, respectively.

At the State and Division level, the estimates are:

I\ I\ N h ( u ) y h ( u ) = L: y h i ( u ) = 1,2, ..... ,nh(u) n h ( u )

I\ I\ N h ( r ) y h ( r ) = L: y h i ( r ) = 1,2, ..... ,nh(r) n h ( r )

I\ I\ I\ y h = y h ( u ) + y h ( r )

I\ I\ I\ y h ( u ) + y h ( r ) y h = L h ( u ) + L h ( r )

where Lh (u) and Lh (r) are the total numbers of households in the urban and rural parts of State and Division h, respectively. At the Union level, the estimates are:

I\ I\ y ( u) = L:Yh(u) h=l,2, .... ,16 h

I\ I\ y (r) = L: Y h (r) h = 1,2,. ... ,14 h I\ I\ y y =- L 6

2.4.3. Limitations of the Data The data users should bear in mind that the data presented in this report are the results of a sample survey and accordingly, subject to sampling variations, because observation is not made of the whole population. Survey estimates may also be subject to non-sampling errors such as deliberate under- or over- reporting of income and expenditures or reluctance on the part of respondents to state their true levels of income and spending.

3. Sample Survey Execution

The 1997 HIES was executed under the supervision of the HIES steering committee headed by Director General, C.S.O and the HIES working committee headed by Director (Statistics), C.S.O. The lists of members of the two committees are as shown in Appendix 3.1.

3.1. Preparation Preparations were started as early as August 1997. Sample design and questionnaire design were selected and approved by the two committees. Questionnaires, terms and definitions and the forms to be used in the survey work are shown in Appendixes 3 .1.1 and 3. 1.2. 107 Staff Officers and Deputy Statisticians of C.S.O were assigned as field supervisors to supervise the field operations in each township. The training of these supervisors, divided into two groups, was given at the C.S.O in Yangon from 27 October 1997 to 30 October 1997. The training consisted of discussion on- (a) Objectives of the survey (b) Sampling method (c) Role of the township supervisors (d) Forms to be used at the township level (e) Selection of sample wards, village tracts and households (f) Terms and facts in the questionnaires (g) Procedures for filling up the questionnaire forms. A pilot survey of 125 households to test the design of the questionnaires, to access operational procedures and the ability of the supervisors was carried out at the Bogyoke Village in the Thanlyin township of Yangon Division by the C.S.O staff assigned to supervise township level field work on 2 November 1997. Based on the returns of this pilot survey,necessary amendments were made in the questionnaires and the C.S.O staff members involved in the pilot survey was again given clarifications and discussions on their works. 7

3.2 Field Operation A total of 853 persons, including l 07 staff members of CSO as field supervisors and 746 locally recruited enumerators participated in the field operation.

3.2.1 Recruitment of Enumerators Officials from CSO carried out the recruitment and training of enumerators at each township of their assignment. It took about four days, starting from I 2 November 1997 to I 5 November 1997 for the recruitment and training of enumerators. Altogether 746 temporary enumerators From NGOs were selected and appointed to carry out survey operations for nineteen days, from 12 November to 30 November 1997.

3.2.2 Compilation of List of Households At the selected wards and village tracts, lists of household were compiled for the sample selection with the cooperation of township, ward, village tract Peace and Development Councils (PDCs), and Township Immigration and Manpower Department.

3.2.3 Training of Enumerators Training of the locally recruited enumerators was carried out at each selected township in mid November 1997 before the fieldwork. Th~ training program included discussion on- ( a) objectives of the survey, (b) interviewing and filling up of the questionnaire forms, (c) social dealing with the sample households, (d) miscellaneous topics A pilot survey to demonstrate them how to carry out the fieldwork was also included in the training program. The enumerators had to conduct the pilot survey under the supervision of the field supervisors from CSO.

3.2.4. Field Work. The enumeration started on 18 November 1997 and ended on 27 November 1997. Prepared questionnaire forms were used to collect data from the sample households. Enumerators interviewed each sample household to obtain the information. An enumerator had to interview 38 sample households on the average and a field supervisor had to supervise the enumeration of 238 sample households on the average. An enumerator had to conduct three to four interviews a day and a field supervisor had to supervise the interview of 20 to 25 sample households a day. It took about one and half-hours to complete an interview on the average. Additional sample households already selected before the fieldwork replaced missing sample households. 8

3.2.5. Checking, Editing and Coding of the Forms The field supervisors and the enumerators undertook the checking, editing and coding of the filled up questionnaire forms after the interviews were completed. It took about three days, starting from 28 November 1997 to 30 November 1997. Although, checking and editing of the filled up forms was carried out everyday after the interviews, the overall editing, call-backs and coding of the edited forms were done during those three days. The completed forms were brought back to CSO after 30 November 1997 and manual editing and coding of the remaining forms continued till they were ready for data entry. Manual data verification and data validation by computer were done thoroughly before the computer did any tabulation.

3.2.6. Closing of Field Work After the completion of the survey fieldwork, the enumerators were honored with 'Certificates' and labour charges at the ceremony sponsored by the township PDCs. The survey would not have been successfully completed without the cooperation of the respective PDCs. They have helped in arranging training halls, temporary survey offices, transportation to the wards and village tracts, and boarding houses for some of the HIES field supervisors from CSO. The logistical support of the township responsible persons greatly contributes to the successful completion of the 199.7 HIES. In addition to this, inspection tours to the States and Divisions, surveyed townships in November, 1997 by the supervisory committee members comprising the Director General, Deputy Director General, Directors, Deputy Directors and Assistant Directors of CSO also made it possible to conduct the HIES, smoothly and efficiently till the time of its completion.

3.3. Data Processing The Computer Division of CSO processed the collected data on demographic, social, income, consumption and expenditure of sample households. Data entry was completely carried out by using IBM compatible microcomputers. IBM compatible microcomputers as well as IBM 4381 mainframe computer did data processing. IMPS and Database software packages were used for tabulation. Manual editing of data, data entry and data processing by electronic computers started since December 1997. Preliminary Statistical tables were produced since May 1998. The tables comprise : 1. Percentage Distribution of Households by Size 2. Average Monthly Household Income by Source 3. Percentage Distribution of Households by Monthly Income Class 4. Monthly Household Expenditure by Expenditure Group 9

5. Percentage Distribution of Households by Monthly Expenditure Class

3.4. Coverage Sample households were selected from all townships except those at the remote and not easily accessible border areas. The list of townships not included in the HIES is shown in Appendix 2.1. The sample townships were selected from 236 townships which is 73.3 % of the total townships in Myanmar. All households were included in the sampling frame. Persons living in collective living quarters like religious buildings, hospitals and dispensaries, schools, educational buildings, hotels and restaurants, inns, boarding houses, hostels, prisons, orphanages, homes for the aged were not included in the HIES.

4. Discussion on Results

Information on some of the demographic, social and economic aspects of sample households was collected in the HIES (1997). Preliminary statistical tables include information on size of household, monthly household income and monthly household expenditure.

4.1.Size of Household

4.1.1.Average Household Size

From ~he results in HIES (1997), based on 25470 sample households, the estimated average size of household for the Union is 5.25. This is comparable to 5.2, which is the average size of household obtained in 1983 census of Myanmar. The estimated average household size is 5.22 for the Urban Myanmar and it is 5.32 for the Rural Myanmar. Rural Myanmar average household size is slightly greater than the average household size for Urban Myanmar. The findings are similar to those in 1983 Census of Myanmar. Table 4.1.15 shows the average household size for the States and Divisions. It also shows the average household size separately for the Urban and Rural Myanmar. The average household sizes of most of the States and Division are larger than the average household size of the Union, except in Rakhine State, Bago, Mandalay, Yangon and Ayeyarwady Divisions. Bago Division has the smallest average household size and Kachin State has the largest average household size among the States and Divisions. 10

For the Urban Myanmar, average household size is 5.22. The average household sizes of most of the Urban States and Divisions are larger than the average household size of Urban Myanmar, except in Sagaing, Bago, Mandalay, Yangon and Ayeyarwady Divisions. Urban Kachin State has the largest average household size and Urban Mandalay Division has the smallest average household size among the States and Divisions. For the Rural Myanmar, average household size is 5.32. Here too, the average household sizes of most of the Rural States and Divisions are larger than the average household size of the

Rural Myanmar, except in Kayin and Rakhine ~tates, Yangon and Bago Divisions. Rural Chin State has the largest average household size and Rural Bago Division has the smallest household size among the States and Divisions. Mandalay City has the average household size of 4.89 and Yangon City has the average household size of 5.16.

4.1.2. Percentage Distribution of Households by Household Size Tables 4.1, 4.1.1 to 4.1.14 show the percentage distributions of households by household size for the Union, States and Divisions. The distributions are also shown separately for the Urban and Rural Myanmar, Urban and Rural States and Divisions. The percentage distribution of household sizes is shown in the last columns of Tables 4.1 to 4.1 14 for the Union, States and Divisions as a whole. Highest percentages of households in the Union, Bago Division, Ayeyarwady Division and Mon State have the household size of 4 persons.

2 Monthly Household Income Mean monthly household income is estimated as 10122.98 kyats for the Union, 13005.76

1ats for the Urban Myanmar and 8905.65 kyats for the Rural Myamnar. This implies that timated mean monthly household income of Urban Myanmar is 1.46 times that of Rural yanmar. Median monthly household income is estimated as 6966.15 kyats for the Union, 7369.58 ·ats for the Urban Myanmar and 6604.60 kyats for the Rural Myanmar. This means that half of e households have the monthly household income to be less than 6966.15 kyqts for the Union, to less than 7369.58 kyats for the Urbari Myanmar and to be less than 6604.60 kyats for the Rural yanmar. It also implies that, estimated median monthly household income of Urban Myanmar is 12 times that of Rural Myanmar. Mean monthly household incomes and median monthly household incomes for the Union, ·ban Myanmar and Rural Myanmar, .overall States and Divisions, Urban and Rural States and visions are shown in Tables 4.2.1.15, 4.2.1.17. 13

4.3.Monthly Household Expenditure In the HIES (1997), household expenditure was collected on 32 main groups. Ten groups referred to the consumption of these items during the day before the day the household was interviewed. Two items referred to the consumption of these items during 7 days before the day the household was interviewed. Six items referred to the consumption of these items during the 30 days before the day the household was interviewed. One item referred to the consumption of this item during 30 days or during 12 months before the day the household was interviewed. Thirteen items referred to the consumption of these items during 12 months before the day the household was interviewed. Table 4.3.1 and 4.3.1.1 to 4.3.1.14 show the average expenditure of households on these items, grouped into 2 main groups of- (1) Food and beverages, (2) Non-food Under food and beverages, there are 16 items. There are 17 items under non-food.

4.3.1. Average Monthly Household Expenditure (Total) Mean monthly household expenditure (Total) is estimated as 13784.51 kyats for the Union, 15266.42 kyats for the Urban Myanmar, 13091.16 kyats for the Rural Myanmar. It shows that mean monthly household expenditure of Rural Myanmar is less than the mean monthly household expenditure of Urban Myanmar by 2175.26 kyats. Table 4.3.1.15 shows the average monthly household expenditure for the States and Divisions. Median monthly household expenditure is estimated as 13549.52 kyats for the Union, 13672.85 kyats for the Urban Myanmar and 13499.80 kyats for the Rural Myanmar. This means that half of the households have the monthly expenditure to be less than 13549.52 kyats for the Union, to be less than 13672.85 kyats for the Urban Myanmar and to be less than 13499.80 kyats for the Rural Myanmar. Thus, median monthly household expenditure for Urban Myanmar is only slightly larger than that of Rural Myanmar. Tanintharyi Division has the highest monthly household expenditure among the States and ·Divisions with 19294.50 kyats, followed by Shan State with 16649.91 kyats and Kachin State with 16368.98 kyats.

Table 4.3.1.16 shows the ranking of States and Divisions by monthly household expenditure. Average monthly household expenditure of Mandalay City is 18273.60 kyats and average monthly household expenditure of Yangon City is 16234.81 kyats.

4.3.2.Monthly Household Expenditure on Food and Beverages Monthly household expenditure on food and beverages is estimated as 9779.45 kyats for the Union, 10419.99 kyats for the Urban Myanmar and 9479.30 kyats for the Rural Myanmar. Monthly household expenditure on food and beverages for the Union is 71 % of the total monthly household expenditure for the Union. The percentages are 68% for the Urban Myanmar and 72% for the Rural Myanmar. This shows that rural households in Myanmar spend more on food and beverages compared to urban households in Myanmar. For the Union, monthly household expenditure on rice and cereals is 20% of the monthly household expenditure, being the highest percentage among the 16 items under food and beverages. The two next highest items are cooking oil and fats with 9% and meat with 7%. For the Urban Myanmar, monthly household expenditure on rice and cereals is I 6% of the monthly household expenditure, being the highest percentage among the 16 items under food and beverages. The two next highest items are meat with 9% and cooking oil and fats with 8%. For the Rural Myanmar, monthly household expenditure on rice and cereals is 22% of the monthly household expenditure, being the highest percentage among the 16 items under food and beverages. The two next highest items are cooking ciil and fats with I 0% and meat with 7%. Households in Rural Myanmar spend more than the households in Urban Myanmar on such items as, rice and other cereals, pulses, ngapi and nganpyaye, vegetables, cooking oil and fats, spices and condiments, beverages, sugar and other food. On such items as meat, eggs, fish and crustacea (fresh), fish and crustacea (dried), fruits, milk and milk products, other miscellaneous food and food taken outside home, households in Urban Myanmar spend more than the households in Rural Myanmar. Of the monthly household expenditures on food and beverages spent by States and Divisions, Tanintharyi Division has the highest monthly household expenditure on food and beverages with 13099.47 kyats, followed by.Shan State with 12144.78 kyats and Kachin State with 11849.72 kyats.

Of the monthly household expenditures on food and beverages spent by Rural States and Divisions, Tanintharyi Division has the highest monthly household expenditure on food and beverages with 12849.61 kyats, followed by Shan State with 11846.52 kyats and Kachin State with 11264.22 kyats. Table 4.3.2 shows the monthly household expenditure on food and beverages. Table 4.3.2.1 shows the ranking of States and Divisions in decreasing order of monthly household expenditure on food and beverages. Monthly household expenditure on food and beverages of Mandalay City is 12700.56 kyats and monthly household expenditure on food and beverages of Yangon City is I 0417. 19 kyats.

4.3.3.Monthly Household Expenditure on Non-food It is estimated that monthly household expenditure on non-food is 4005.06 kyats for the Union as whole, 4846.43 kyats for the Urban Myanmar and 3611.86 kyats for the Rural Myanmar. Estimated monthly household expenditure on non-food for the Union, as a whole is 29% of the estimated total monthly household expenditure for the Union as a whole. The percentage is 32% for the Urban Myanmar and 28% for the Rural Myanmar. Thus, Rural Myanmar spends more than Urban Myanmar on food and beverages, but Urban Myanmar spends more than Rural Myanmar on non-food which reflects the true consumption patterns of urban and rural households. All of the percentages of monthly household expenditure on each of the non-food items are less than 5%, the highest being the percentage of monthly household expenditure spent on fuel and light. The percentage is 4.80% for the Union, 4.82% for the Urban Myanmar and 4.87% for the Rural Myanmar. The two items .with the next highest percentages are charity and ceremonials, clothing and apparel. The percentage of monthly household expenditure on charity and ceremonials is 3.74% for the Union as a whole, 3.84% for Urban Myanmar and 3.67% for Rural Myanmar. The percentage of monthly household expenditure on clothing and apparel is 3.31 % for the Union, 3.41 % for the Urban Myanmar and 3.14% for the Rural Myanmar. Monthly household expenditure for educational purposes in 1.43 % of total monthly household expenditure for the Union, 1.9 % for Urban Myanmar and 1.06 % for Rural Myanmar. Thus as a percent of total monthly household expenditure, Urban Myanmar households spend 0.84 % more on education than Rural Myanmar households. Household expenditure for educational purposes is 289.91 kyats for Urban Myanmar and 139.43 kyats for Rural Myanmar. This implies that expenditure for educational purposes of households in Urban Mynamar is twice that of the households in Rural Myanmar. Monthly household expenditure on medical care as a percent of total monthly household expenditure is 1.81 % for the Union, 1.68 % for Urban Myanmar and 1.80 % for Rural Myanmar. Household expenditure on medical care is 256.02 Kyats for Urban Myanmar and 235.20 kyats for 20

Rural Myanmar. Thus, households m Urban Myanmar spend only slightly .more than the households in Rural Myanmar on medical care. Monthly household expenditure for recreation is pretty low, 0.3 I % for Union, 0.33 % for the Urban Myanmar, 0.30 % for the Rural Myanmar. As is expected, Urban Myanmar households spend more on recreation than Rural Myanmar households. Monthly household expenditures for journey travelling expenses is also low, 0.68 % for the Union, 0.79 % for Urban Myanmar and 0.64 % for the Rural Myanmar. As is expected, Urban Myanmar households spend more on journey travelling expenses than Rural Myanmar households. It is interesting to note that expenditure on charity and ceremonials as a percent of total household expenditure is comparatively high. It is second to the expenditure on fuel and light and much more than expenditure on medical care and education as a percentage of total monthly expenditure. Among the non-food items, monthly household expenditures on such items as travelling expenses, journey travelling expenses, clothing and apparel, personal use good, cleansing and toilet, house rent and repairs, stationary and school supplies, education, recreation, charity and ceremonials for Urban Myanmar are higher than the respective monthly household expenditures for Rural Myanmar. For such items as tobacco, fuel and light, crockeries, other household goods, furniture, medical care and other expenses, Rural Myanmar households are found to spend more than Urban Myanmar households. For the monthly household expenditure on non-food of the households of States and Divisions, Tanintharyi Division has the highest monthly household expenditure with 6195.03 kyats, followed by Yangon Division with 5400.44 kyats and Kachin State with 4519.26 kyats.

6. Comments and Conclusion

HIES (I 997) was carried out with a relatively short period of six months preparation time. But CSO was able to use the well-trained staff to conduct the survey nation wide, except in a few inaccessible townships. Although some townships have to be left out from the sampling frame, the survey was designed to represent the sample population and also to enable to find estimates at the Union level, State and Division level, Township level, including Rural and Urban at each level. Besides the random sampling of townships, based on which the estimates were calculated, some townships of interest were also surveyed to be able to calculate estimates for those special townships. Minimum number of sample townships was used within the capacity of staff strength of CSO, but was enough to find estimates. For simplicity and due to lack of necessary data, simple random sampling was used at each stage of the three-stage sampling. If time permits and if the necessary data could have been available, more suitable sample design could be used. Except the outcome of some unexpected results, the survey results support the well­ accepted cases. It sheds light on the situation of States and Divisions, Rural and Urban. The peculiar fact of getting household income to be less than household expenditure in some previous economic surveys of Myanmar households has to be faced in this survey too. This may be either due to the wnderreporting of the household income by the respondents and overreporting of the household expenditure by the respondents, not reporting the extra income or due to actual overspending of the households. Except this unavoidable and some irregularities in the survey results, the survey results seem to shed light on household expenditure patterns and also yield valuable information for the computation of living cost based on CPI for the whole of Myanmar as well as by region and key city.
