What are the three main sources of demographic data mentioned in the script?

The three main sources of demographic data mentioned are census, survey, and registration.

What is the difference between de jure and de facto population concepts in the context of a census?

De jure population includes all residents within a geographical area, while de facto population includes those present at the time of enumeration. In Indonesia, the concept of de facto population is used, which includes anyone who intends to stay for at least six months.

What are the methods used for conducting a census in Indonesia?

The methods used for conducting a census in Indonesia include canvassing and interviewing, self-enumeration where individuals fill out their own forms, and a combination system using civil registration data as a basis.

How often is the census conducted in Indonesia?

The census in Indonesia is conducted every 10 years, with the most recent one being in 2020.

What are the challenges faced during the implementation of the 2020 census in Indonesia?

Challenges faced during the 2020 census in Indonesia included the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to budget cuts and changes in management practices, as well as non-response from some residents who refused to be interviewed or could not be located.

What is the significance of vital registration in demographic data?

Vital registration is significant as it provides continuous records of vital events such as births, deaths, and marriages. It is a crucial source of demographic data for understanding population changes.

How does the coverage of the census in Indonesia define 'usual residence'?

In the context of the Indonesian census, 'usual residence' is defined as a place where a person usually resides or intends to reside for at least six months.

What is the difference between a census and a survey in terms of data collection?

A census collects data from every individual within a population at a specific time, while a survey collects data from a sample of the population. Surveys are generally less expensive and can provide more detailed information but come with a sampling error.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of using a census, survey, and registration for demographic data collection?

A census provides a complete picture of the population at a specific time but is costly and time-consuming. A survey is cheaper and quicker but may not cover the entire population and has sampling errors. Registration provides continuous data but may have coverage and non-sampling errors depending on the effectiveness of the registration system.
