The country’s first digital Census is due to begin this week and will conclude at the end of February. The nationwide population count will be conducted through telephone, digital computer-assisted counting and physical door-to-door visits.

Technical Glitch for online registration re mobile no. If they can't get it right people (like me) are going to give up. What's the point anyway - we have wide open borders.....

How acurate will this count be? There are undocumented foreign citizens, possible double count with people on job migratory residence. The proposed multi input system might also result in some double count.
