From the Chairman
This is the third issue in the Statistical Briefs series published by the Malaysian
Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC). Statistical Briefs present
main findings of selected primary statistical surveys conducted by the MCMC
which are of direct interest to a broad cross section of the Malaysian public.
This issue features the main findings of the Hand Phone Users Survey 2005
(HPUS 2005). The HPUS 2005 is the second annual Hand Phone Users Survey
conducted by the MCMC to provide timely statistics for tracking trends in hand
phone usage in Malaysia.
The canvassing period of the survey extended from 9 August to 18 September
2005 from MCMC's CATI Centre and had a response rate of 79.0 %. A write-up
on MCMC’s CATI Centre is also included in this issue.
I would like to commend the Industry Development Division for the successful
conduct of the HPUS 2005.
A listing of all surveys published under the Statistical Briefs series can be found
in the last page.
Last but not least I would like to thank those who responded to the survey.
Without their cooperation, this survey would not have been possible.
Dato' V. Danapalan
