            3.  Result
                The implementation of MyCTP and development of MyIPCS will produce
            comprehensive new statistical information to the smallest geographical area
            which  will  become  a  basis  for  national  planning  and  development.  The
            transformation  will  initiate  the  development  of  register  based  statistics
            (administrative  data)  which  comprises  a  complete  living  quarters  and
            population database called MSAR and MSPR. The updated data, especially
            from MSAR and MSPR, can be shared in various other government agencies
            thus  eventually  improving  the  cooperation  among  other  government
            agencies. The development of MyIPCS will transform the statistical landscape
            of Malaysia from paper based to a digital platform which involves the process
            of  Preparatory  Work,  Enumeration,  Data  Processing,  Dissemination  and
            Evaluation  based  on  Principles  and  Recommendation  for  Population  and
            Housing  Census,  Revision  3.  This  modernisation  will  improve  the  delivery
            system to be more modern, dynamic and user friendly as well to promote the
            statistical  literacy  among  the  population.  The  information  obtained  from
            MyCensus of 2020 will be the basis of estimates and projections of Population,
            Living Quarters and Households which will be the population data inputs for
            developing the next key public policies. The use of the latest technology in
            MyCTP and MyIPCS is a long-term and value-for-money investment that is not
