PREFACE
One of the principal objectives laid down by the First Party Congress of the Burma Socialist
Programme Party in 1971 June-July was to plan the national economy. As a result, the twenty-
year long term plan comprising of a series of five four-year plans was materialized.
Policies set forth in the man power sector of the twenty-year long term plan include among
other:
- Population censuses and labour force surveys to be taken regularly to determine the
country's labour force situation;
- Vital statistics system to be improved in order to facilitate population projections;
- Based on statistics compiled from censuses and surveys, a plan for the labour force to be
drawn up in conformity with economic plans, so that optimum use of the country's
labour force takes place.
Accordingly, the Government of the Socialist Republic of the Union of Burma conducted its
first post war nation wide census in 1973 and the second one in 1983. These two censuses taken
after independence, unlike the ones taken in the pre-war period, were organized not as a mere
government departmental activity, but as a mass movement.
The 1983 population census was conducted from 1 to 5 April. It was carried out successfully as
an important national undertaking under the leadership of the Burma Socialist Programme
Party, and under the supervision of the Peoples' Councils at different levels and with the active
participation of Lanzin Youth members, government employees, armed service personnel,
students, teachers and all the mass organization members. Thus, the 1983 census was the
outcome of the united effort of the entire people of Burma.
The census project has been implemented under the sponsorship of the Ministry of Home and
Religious Affairs. Census committees were formed at the Central, State, Division, Township,
Ward and village tract levels to organize and conduct the census operations. These committees
were responsible for the actual census taking. In addition, the Central Census Committee was
responsible for the data processing and publication of the census.
The 1993 census was the first national census using two different questionnaires; a short form
consisting of 7 social questions to be asked to 80 percent of the population and a long form
consisting of 18 social, economic and demographic questions for the remaining 20 percent on
sample basis.
The provisional results of this census based on manual counts wear published as an "Advance
release" in October 1983. The current publication is presented in two parts. Part One comprises
highlights of the main findings of the 1983 census, sample design, estimation of the sampling
errors and the results of the Post Enumeration Check (PEC). Part Two, comprised of 38 tables,
includes demographic and socioeconomic characteristics and the geographic distribution of
structures and households. I hope this publication will serve as a useful reference to
administrators, planners, research workers and the public.
The Post Enumeration Check (PEC), which is the first to be carried out in Burma, was
conducted on a sample basis exactly one year after the 1983 census. The PEC was conducted to
evaluate the completeness of the census coverage and the accuracy of its results. The PEC
shows that the coverage of households and persons in the census were 99.6 percent and 99.1
percent respectively.
I express my grateful thanks to all those who have contributed directly and indirectly to the
completion of this census on schedule. But it must be said that the largest part of the credit for
the success should go to the people of Burma themselves and next, to the devoted and hard
working enumerators, supervisors and the members of the census committees at different levels
in the states and divisions.
I would especially like to thank the Chairman and members of the Central Census Committee
and sub committees for their guidance, direction and contribution to this endevour. I would also
like to express my gratitude to the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), United
Nations Fund for Population Activities (UNFPA), U.S Agency For International Development
(USAID) and the Government of Norway for their generous assistance without which the issue
of this final printed publication would have been delayed.
Special acknowledgement goes to the various Government Ministries and Departments for their
actives cooperation and assistance; especially to the Ministry of Information and the Printing
and Publishing Corporation for the timely work done by them.
The officers and staff of the Immigration and Manpower Department offices in States and
Division worked whole heartedly and each of them gave his or her best in ensuring that the
census was carried out successfully. I place on record my deep sense of gratitude to all of then.
I would also like to thank the officers and staff of my own office who were involved in the
census project.
In particular, I must record my appreciation to the Census Department for the arduous task of
the scrutinization and compilation of the census data and the preparation of the analysis of the
census result. I am greatly indebted to the hard work of the officers and staff of the immigration
and Manpower Department Computation Center in brining out this publication in time.

Report
CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

1. The Socialist Republic of the Union of Burma, Located in South East Asia, Lies
between 9 H 32' N and 28 H 31' N Latitudes and 92 H10' E and 101 H 11' E longitudes with an area of
261227.8 square miles ( approximately 676577.5 square kilometers). It shares common borders
with Bangladesh and India in the west, China in the north and north-east, Laos and Thailand in
the east. The Bay of Bengal lies in the west and the Andaman sea in the south of the country.

2. Burma has a long tradition of censuses. The first population census, in its true sense,
was taken in 1872 for lower Burma, which was then under the British administration, followed
by another one in 1881. In 1886 the rest of the country was annexed by the British and a census
was taken for the first time for the whole country in 1891.Since then decennial censuses were
taken regularly up to 1941. The area covered by the prewar censuses varied from one census to
another as can be seen below:

Year Area covered Population Remarks

1872 88566 2747148 Lower Burma

1881 87220 3736771 Lower Burma

1931 233492 14667146

1941 261757 16823798

3. After independence in 1948, an attempt was made to take a census in three stages. The
first stage census was taken in 1953 and covered only 252 towns. The second stage census,
taken in 1954, covered 2143 village tracts in Burma Proper and 1016 village tracts in Kachin
State mostly adjoining the town area. The third stage planned to be taken in 1955 was
abandoned due to unsettled condition of the country.

4. The first nation wide census after independence was taken in 1973 as a national

undertaking. It was followed by the 1983 Census, the eighth nation wide census of Burma since

1891 and the second after independence.

5. At the fourth Party Congress, the Central Committee had recommended to formulate a

manpower project for the utilization of manpower. For implementing such a program, a nation-

wide census was essential. Hence, the 1983 census was conducted with the following

objectives:

(a) To obtain reliable population statistics needed for implementing economic and

social planning and administrative services for the country;

(b) To provide government institutions with important social, economic and

demographic information required to fulfill their respective functions;

(c) To make basic scientific analysis and research on the current state of population

such as size, composition, distribution, growth and changes;

(d) To provide a basic frame for future social, economic and other sample surveys.

6. Preparatory work such as preparation of area lists and census maps began as early as late

1980. In this census two different questionnaires, long and short, were designed so that

additional information on education, labour force and fertility be collected on a 20 percent

sample basics. The idea behind the preparation of two different questionnaires was to save time,

cost and labour and at the same time to collect wider information on social, economic and

demographic characteristics.

7. The enumeration of the census took place from 1 to 5 April 1983 on the de-jure basis.

Moving population, namely the homeless and the boat dwellers, were enumerated on the last

day of enumeration.
1-3

Enumeration teams were sent to hill tracts and remote areas, where communication was

difficult, prior to the census date. In cases where continuous traveling was necessary, extension

of the enumeration period beyond the scheduled date was allowed.

8. Under the provision of the Census Act of 1972, the government was vested with full

power to conduct the census and to appoint personnel and organizations at various

administrative levels. Using this power, the government appointed the Central Census

Committee with the Deputy Minister for Home and Religious Affairs as Chairman and the other

deputy ministers in the cabinet as members to conduct the 1983 census. Subsequently, Central

Census Committee formed Census Committees at State/Division, township, ward and village

tract levels. Census Committees at different administrative levels were given full responsibility

for enumeration supervision and control of the census work in their respective areas. The

Census Committees have the chairman and secretary of the People's Councils as chairman and

secretary of the committee respectively. The Immigration and Manpower Department of the

Ministry of Home and Religious Affairs was charged with the responsibility of taking the

census.

9. With the help of the Lanzin Youth Central Organization Committee, enumerators were

largely drawn from the Lanzin Youth members, high school and university students; school

teachers, some university students and other government employees were recruited as

supervisors. Armed Services and People's Police Force personnel also helped in the

enumeration field work.

10. Each enumerator was assigned to cover a census black (enumeration area) consisting of

250 to 400 persons and a supervisor was appointed for every five enumerators on the average.

About 170,000 enumerators and 34,000 supervisors were employed in the 1983 Census. They

all were given intensive training including practical work. A small honorarium was paid to

them.
1-4

11. A post Enumeration Check (PEC) Was conducted exactly one year after the census
enumeration, that is from 1 to 5 April 1984, to evaluate the completeness of the census
coverage and the accuracy of its results. Taking advantage of this second round of independent
enumeration, some questions relating to housing, fertility and mortality were added to the PEC
questionnaire.

12. Data processing of the census returns and publication of the results were done at the
office of the Census Division, immigration and Manpower Department. Some 500 temporary
staff were recruited and with their assistance, the filled-in questionnaires were manually edited
and coded. The information was then entered into two mini computers; each with one mega
byte of memory and 29 Visual Display Units (VDU). Captured data was then transfered to the
third and more powerful mini computer with two mega byte of main memory for machine
editing and tabulation. The mini computers, two model 6/48s and a 6/92 from Cii Honeywell
Bull, were donated by the United Nations; software packages for editing (CONCOR) and
tabulation (CENTS 4) were the courtesy of USAID and the U. S Bureau of the Census.

13. An Advance Release' of preliminary population counts was complied and published in
October 1983 which enabled the Government and the people to get hold of the manually
prepared summary data as quickly as possible while the detail data processing was still under
way.

14. The first publication ever to come out of the 1983 Census with computer tabulated
results, a special volume for 'Rangoon City', was released in January 1986.It was followed by a
volume for 'Rangoon Division' in May 1986. Current volume for the whole 'Union' is the third
of the series of planned publications. Similar publications for the remaining seven states and six
divisions will soon follow.

15. Of the 38 tables contained in this volume, 11 tables were compiled from the short

questionnaires and 25 tables from the long questionnaires. Tables 2 and 3 were manually

compiled from the structure listings.

CHAPTER II

EXPLANATIONS AND DEFINITIONS

Explanations

1. As mentioned earlier, in 1983 Population Census, two different questionnaires, short


and long, were used. A list of the census blocks (enumeration areas) was used as a sampling
frame and a one stage stratified, replicated, systematic sampling method was adopted. The
Total area of the country was divided into 14 strata and 10 replicates in each stratum for sample
selection. Sample selection was designed in such a way as to represent urban and rural areas
separately.

2. The total population count is based on the sum of the short and long forms. Education,
economic and fertility characteristics covered by the long form are weighted to match the total
population count based on urban/rural areas, sex and age (14 categories).

3. The questionnaires were designed in a pre-coded form to facilitate manual processing


and data entry. The short form covered 7 questions as listed below:

(a) Name

(b) Relationship to head of household

(c) Sex

(d) Age

(e) Marital Status

(f) Race, and

(g) Religion.

4. Besides these 7 questions, the long form covered 11 additional questions on socio-
economic and fertility characteristic. The additional questions in the long form are listed below:
1-6

(a) School attendance

(b) Highest standard passed

(c) Literacy

(d) Occupation

(e) Industry

(f) Employment status

(g) Reason for not working

(h) Working during last 12 months

(i) Children ever born alive

(j) Children still living, and

(k) Date of birth of last child.

5. The time reference for economic characteristics was 2 weeks preceding the census date.
However, the question on working during the last 12 months was asked to study seasonal
variation in labour force participation.

6. The methods and concepts used in the 1983 Census were almost identical to those which
were used in the 1973 Census with the exception of the collection of the economic
characteristics. In the 1983 Census, in choosing the principal occupation of a respondent with
dual occupations, the time criterion was used instead of the income criterion used in the 1973
Census.

CHAPTER III

ANALYSIS

Coverage

1. The Socialist Republic of the Union of Burma covers 261227. 848 square miles

(676577.5 sq.km) and consists of 7 States and 7 Divisions.Under 14 States and Division there

are 314 townships. Again under 314 townships there are288 towns, 2190 wards and 13756

village tracts. Wards in case of urban and village tracts in case of rural are the lowest

administrative levels. In carrying out the field enumeration in 1983, all the 2190 wards of 288

towns, representing total urban area, were fully covers. Out of the total of 13756 village tracts,

12814 were completely covered, 112 were partially covered and 830 were uncovered for

security reasons. Total enumerated population represents 96.6 percent of total population.

Detailed statement of coverage by individual State and Division is shown in Table A-1.

Total Population

2. According to the final results, the total population of the Socialist Republic of the Union

of Burma is 35307913 (including estimated population of 1183005 persons for the areas

restricted for security reasons). There are 17518255 males and 17789658 females. in the

advance release publication, the total population was shown as 35313905. The difference being

5592 persons, i.e. 0.02 percent, is negligible. of the total population, urban population

represents 24.0 percent in 1983 as against 23.6 percent in 1973.

Completeness

3. The 1984 post enumeration Check indicates that the 1983 Census for the country

covered 99.6 percent of households and 99.1 percent of total population.

** Some wards and village tracts listed as 'Enumerated' cannot be included in the computer

tabulation since they have no inhabitants, but at the same time are still classified as

administered areas and included in this table. The result is a discrepancy between the above

table and Table 4 on page 2-19, in respect to the number of wards and village tracts.

Household

12. Of the total of 6.5 million households, 95.7 percent are family households and the
remaining 4.3 percent are non-family households. Average size of household is 5.2 persons for
union, urban and rural which is slightly higher than 5.0 persons as existed in 1973. Kachin state
with the average of 5.8 persons per household has the highest average household size and Shan
state with 5.7 shows the second highest. Irrawaddy Division has the lowest household size of
4.8 persons. In general, States have larger average household size compared to Divisions with
the exception of Sagaing Division. Classification of household heads by type of household and
sex shows an excess of male heads over female heads. Classification of household population
by relation to head of household and marital status shows that 91.6 percent of male heads are
married while widowed and divorced constitute 79.2 percent among female heads. Percentage
distribution of households by household size and type of household is presented in Table A-4.

Persons in and not in labour force

20. In 1983 census, persons on leave were treated as employed. So persons in labour

force consists of only two categories: employed persons and those seeking work. Total

persons in labour force is composed of 98.4 percent employed and 1.6 percent seeking

work. Proportion of persons seeking work in age group 15-19 is 3.9 percent which is

the highest among all age groups. The proportion of persons seeking work in urban

being 3.7 percent is higher than rural which has only 1.0 percent.

21. Persons not in Labour Force includes all persons 10 years of age and over except those

who are employed or seeking work. Of the total persons not in labour force, persons doing

housework with 32.2 percent constitute the largest proportion followed by students with 27.8

percent. Unemployed seasonal workers constitute 11.7 percent. The percentage distribution of

population 10 years of age and over in and not in Labour Force by Age and Reason for not

Working is presented in Table A-11.

Fertility
25. In the 1983 Census, two types of information on fertility were collected: lifetime

fertility and current fertility. The number of children ever born were asked for the lifetime

fertility. The date of birth of last child was asked to obtain the current fertility. For the sake of

simplicity in field instructions, these fertility related questions were asked to all ever-married

women. But tabulation was done only for ever-married women 15 years of age and over.

26. The number of children ever born to a particular woman is an aggregate measure of her

lifetime fertility experience up to the moment the data was collected. From this information, we

obtain the average parity of the women by age groups.

27. "Date of birth of last child" collected were converted to "births" in the 12 months

preceding the census date. This indirect method to get the births was employed because the

direct question on it might result in reporting errors from the misperception of the length of the

reference period.

28. From these information, some direct measures of fertility were calculated and

presented in Table A-16 and illustrated in Figure 9.

CHAPTER IV
ASSESSMENT OF QUALITY OF CENSUS DATA

1. A population census is a large scale and complex operation; so far countries throughout

the world have not found a method to conduct an error free census. It is accepted that there will

always be some kind of errors in the census data to a certain extent. If the errors are within

reasonable limits the data are valuable, so there is a need to evaluate the magnitude of the errors

to throw light on the quality of the census data.

2. There are two types of errors, namely the sampling error and the non-sampling error.

Sampling error occurs when observations are made on a sample basis. All estimates based on

the 20 percent enumeration of the 1983 census were subject to sampling error. The non-

sampling errors are essentially human errors that occur at the time of

enumeration or during the processing of the raw data. The sampling and non-sampling error

estimation procedures are described in the subsequent paragraphs.

Sample Design

3. The 1983 Census was the first nation wide censes to adopt the sampling technique to

collect population data using two different questionnaires; a short form consisting of 7

questions to be asked to 80 percent of the population and a long form consisting of 18 questions

for the remaining 20 percent on a sample basis.

4. The sampling technique was adopted because it has general advantages over the

traditional full enumeration. It is cheaper, makes possible the selections of better quality

enumerators for the sample blocks, improved training, supervision and control over the field

staff and reduces the number of staff and time required for data processing.
1-40

5. To select the 20 percent sample blocks, a one-stage stratified, replicated, systematic

sampling method was adopted in order to meet the following requirements:

(a) to compute the estimates of the population parameters and their standard errors for

each state and divisions efficiently;

(b) to minimize certain administrative efforts.

6. Firstly, in order to satisfy the above requirement (a), the whole country was stratified

into fourteen states and divisions. Secondly, within each state and division, the census blocks

were stratified into either urban or rural grouping. Finally, within each urban and rural

grouping, the blocks were further stratified geographically into townships. This provides a good

distribution of the sample over the various geographical areas of the country.

7. Thus, for each state and division there was a list of census blocks which were ordered as

mentioned above. Ten sub-samples (replicates) of about equal size from urban block list and ten

sub-samples from the rural block list were selected systematically. The use of replication in the

design was to simplify the computation of sampling errors of the estimates and to facilitate the

selection of samples for subsequent surveys.

Estimation Procedures

8. A ratio estimation method was adopted to estimate the population parameters on the

basis of information obtained from 20 percent sample. Ratio estimates were computed

separately for each state and division. This method was adopted because of the following

advantage:

(a) it removes any inconsistency between the estimates based on a simple and the

complete headcounts for basic characteristics such as age and sex;

(b) it produces more precise estimates by utilising information obtained from the

complete count.
1-41

9. The ratio estimation process involved the assignment of integral weights to the sample

records. Separate ratio estimates were prepared for 14 age groups and sex in each state and

division. The weights for the ratio adjustments are usually non- integral and if straightly applied

would lead to non- integral counts in the results. In practice, integral weights are used for

blowing-up purposes. For example, if the ratio for a group was 4.2, one-fifth of the persons

(selected at random) within the group were assigned a weight of 5, and the remaining four-fifth

a weight of 4. The use of such a combination of integral weights rather than a single fractional

weight was adopted to avoid the complications involved in rounding in the final data.

10. Within each strata, the formulae for the estimation of variance is as follows:

10

Var (X) =
(1-f) c

---------------
X 2
(Xi - -------)
(c-1) i=1 c
where:
Xi = the 'blown-up ' estimate of a total for the i th replicate
10
X = Xi i.e summed over all ten replicates
i=1
c = 10 (the number of replicates)

f = the sampling fraction

11. Table A-18 gives the sample, estimates, standard errors and the 95 percent confident

interval estimates for some selected variables.

Post Enumeration Check (PEC)


12. In executing a large scale data collection operation like a census there will be errors of
coverage. Some of these errors will be positive and tend to overcount the population. Others
will be negative in nature and tend to undercount the population. It is usual to follow up a
census with post enumeration checks to evaluate the completeness of the census coverage and
the accuracy of its results.
13. For the 1983 Census, the PEC was planned and carried out as an integral part of the
exercises. The specific objectives of the PEC are as follows:
(a) to estimate the completeness and accuracy of the 1983 Census, that is, to estimate the
non-sampling errors which occur at the time of census enumeration;
(b) to gain experience in conducting a sample survey;
(c) to specify problem areas in conducting the PEC and to indicate improved procedures
for future data collection activities.
14. The 1984 Burmese PEC was the first to be carried out in Burma; PEC re-enumeration
took place exactly 1 year after the 1983 Census on a dejure basis. Its reference date was 31
March 1984. The questionnaire consisted of 5 basic questions, which are name, relationship to
head of household, sex, age and marital status; an advantage was taken to incorporate some
additional topics of interest in the questionnaire. The topics chosen were place of birth and
place of residence. Information on birth and deaths, in-movers and out-movers were also
collected in order to facilitate the PEC study.
15. The 1984 PEC did not cover the full 1983 Census population, as the PEC sampling
frame excluded institutional and moving population as will as the population from the remote
and difficult to access areas. Exclusions were made because the cost of conducting the PEC in
those areas would have been disproportionate to the population residing there. Areas covered in
the PEC are as follows:
Area 1983 Census 1984 PEC
Union 100 87.7%
Urban 100 93.1%
Rural 100 85.6%

16. The sample for the PEC consisted of 450 census blocks. These were selected in two
phases. In the first phase, 412 census blocks were selected. The selection procedure involved
classifying the census blocks of the PEC sampling frame into urban and rural strata. Replicated
systematic sampling method was then used to select 256 rural blocks (in 8 sample replicates)
and 156 urban blocks (in 6 sample replicates). Among urban blocks, 38 were from Rangoon
city and 118 from other urban areas.
17. In the second phase, 39 additional blocks were selected from the Rangoon city in order
to estimate the completeness of that area separately. These blocks were randomly assigned to
the 6 urban replicates. As a result, the PEC sample was distributed across three strata as
follows:
1-45

Strata No. of sample replicates census blocks


Rangoon city 6 77
Other urban 6 117
Rural areas 8 256
Total 450

18. The matching operation was accomplished manually in two phases; household matching
and person matching. Within each of the 450 sample blocks, household matching was
accomplished by comparing the 1983 Census and the PEC questionnaires. For a matched
household, the information obtained from the PEC was subsequently matched with the
information obtained from the census on a person to person basis to measure the extent of
discrepancies between the two sets of results. The number of unmatched households and
persons, that is, those who were enumerated in the PEC but not in the census, gave an
indication of the under coverage of households and persons respectively. The matchings were
done at the Immigration and Manpower Department headquarters.
19. The results of the PEC showed that coverage for the union of Burma was 99.1
percent and those for the Union urban and the Union rural were 98.7 percent and 99.2
percent respectively. These results show that there were no significant differences between the
data from the census and the PEC. Therefore, no adjustment of the census data was made on the
basis of the findings of the PEC.
20. For assessing reliability of the data collected in respect of the age items, the completed
pairs of census and PEC questionnaires of the 97569 matched persons were compared. It shows
that 95.6 percent have the same age (taking the different reporting periods into consideration).
For urban areas, out of 26894 matched persons, 94.8 percent also have the same age. For the
rural areas, 96.0 percent of 48378 matched persons have the same age. Table A-19 shows the
comparison of age, reporting between the 1983 census and the PEC by five year age groups.
