The 2025 Census collects 3 groups of information: the current status of agricultural , forestry and fishery production; the current status of rural areas; information on rural residents. The survey subjects include: workers participating in NNFS activities; households participate in NNFS activities; farms, enterprises, cooperatives participate in NNFS activities; Commune People's Committees. The 2025 Census will simultaneously implement 2 methods of information collection: direct interviews (using electronic survey forms - CAPI and paper survey forms) and indirect information collection (using electronic survey forms - Webform) from the survey units.
In Can Tho City, the survey and information collection for the 2025 Census were conducted in 3,234 areas; including 708 urban areas and 2,526 rural areas. The city mobilized 3,525 investigators to collect information and 322 team leaders for this survey. In order to ensure the quality of information collection, the City Statistics Office selected investigators and supervisors who were experienced in statistical surveys, had a high sense of responsibility, and were knowledgeable about the area. Along with that, professional training was carefully prepared, with focused and key training content. Propaganda work was also focused on so that the subjects of the survey clearly understood the purpose and significance of the survey as well as fulfilled their obligations to provide accurate, complete, and timely information to the investigators. Depending on each locality, propaganda work is applied appropriately through forms such as posting content related to the 2025 Census on the website of the City Statistics Office; hanging/pasting billboards and posters in public places, gates of commune and ward People's Committees; groundswell loudspeakers, etc.
Determination to win
The 2025 Census takes place at a special time, when the whole country is promoting the implementation of administrative boundary arrangement and the conversion of the 2-level local government model, so it also faces many difficulties. The change of administrative boundaries and the arrangement of the apparatus affects the work of perfecting the census steering committees at all levels. The forces participating in supervision and investigation at the district and commune levels also have many changes, especially when the time of the census coincides with the period when new administrative units begin to operate. The statistical sector at all levels has been proactive and flexibly adapted to the major changes of the country in the context of implementing administrative boundary arrangement and the conversion of the 2-level local government model to ensure continuous and uninterrupted implementation of the 2025 Census.
Thanks to the thorough and thoughtful preparation as well as the smooth coordination of the Statistics Department, in recent days, the work of collecting information for the 2025 Census in the city has been quite smooth.
