Singaporeans: who are are you?

The Census of Population 2010 starts today, the fifth census conducted since Singapore’s independence.

Census 2010 will adopt a register-based approach, with the Singapore Department of Statistics sending out notification letters to the selected households from March to June 2010. Detailed information will be collected from some 200,000 households while broad characteristics of the population will be obtained from administrative records. Information to be collected relate to demographic profile, economic status, education and transportation, and other data.

Chief Statistician, Ms Wong Wee Kim, said, "The Census of Population is the largest national statistical exercise conducted in Singapore. It collects a wide range of information on population and households. Statistics compiled from Census will serve as key inputs for policy planning and programme formulation by the public sector agencies for the population and the community. We would greatly appreciate the cooperation of the households in providing information requested for in Census 2010."

The selected households can choose to submit their Census 2010 returns either online or through the toll-free Census 2010 Hotline or via face-to-face interview. Responses from households will be kept in confidence in accordance with the Statistics Act.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
