The census guy came at 9 pm - although he did come at 5.30 and i was at work. Don't think the objective is for population but more for the status/standard of living of residents - they can easily get the population since each resident has a identity card.
I did not get any form but he directly punched in my data from my/wife's id into his digi pad. Questions asked -
How many bedrooms and bathrooms.
Internet.
Computer - which was on the coffee table infront of him.
Most probably the QSA will utilise this data to tabulate number of individuals staying in 2 bedroom apts, internet usage and ownership of laptop/computer - basically the standard of living of the residents of Qatar.
I signed directly on the digi pad once he keyed in my data together with telephone number.
I didn't like the fact that the data was in arabic and i had to sign on that. Another thing is that the guy didn't understand a word of english - to my luck my arabic dictionary went missing. Lastly, I wouldn't like it if he came when my wife wd be alone - my watchman did accompany him so that is a saving fact.
