Weighting
Since the sampling weight is counteractive to the percentage sample from the frame, and as this ratio differs from the percentage sample for the population in the reference period, the weight was therefore adjusted to show the number of population in mid-2006. The weight was also adjusted to make the distribution of people in the sample by region, type, and age identical to this distribution in the 2007 census. Finally, the weight was adjusted to compensate for incomplete cases that might occur during data collection.
