The 2024 Census of Population and Community-Based Monitoring System (POPCEN-CBMS) commenced its data collection operation on the 15th of July. The Philippine Statistics Authority, through the Pangasinan Provincial Statistical Office, has established a strong partnership with the Provincial Government Office and Local Government Units particularly the Barangays. The PGO and LGUs showed their support and participation by hanging the official 2024 POPCEN-CBMS streamers in strategic areas across towns and cities of the province. This is to promote people’s awareness and to ensure a very high participation rate that will lead to the success of these two integrated major activities.
