Understanding how informal businesses function and why they prefer to remain unregistered could help implement changes in government - business relationships. Informal Surveys are usually conducted at the same time with Enterprise Surveys. v01 Myanmar National The whole population, or universe of the study, is the non-agricultural economy. It comprises: all manufacturing sectors according to the group classification of ISIC Revision 3.1: (group D), construction sector (group F), services sector (groups G and H), and transport, storage, and communications sector (group I). Note that this definition excludes the following sectors: financial intermediation (group J), real estate and renting activities (group K, except sub-sector 72, IT, which was added to the population under study), and all public or utilities-sectors. Sample survey data [ssd] SRG Bangladesh Limited Myanmar Marketing Research & Development Ltd (MMRD) The Informal Survey was conducted simultaneously with Myanmar Enterprise Survey 2014. During the blocks enumeration, information was collected on the registration status of the businesses. Businesses were considered informal if they were NOT registered with either 1) DICA, 2) Directorate of Industrial Supervision and Inspection of the Ministry of Industry, or 3) City Development Committees or Department of Development Affairs. Face-to-face [f2f] Private contractors conduct the Enterprise Surveys on behalf of the World Bank. Due to sensitive survey questions addressing business-government relations and corruption-related topics, private contractors are preferred over any government agency or an organization/institution associated with government, and are hired by the World Bank to collect the data. Data entry and quality controls are implemented by the contractor and data is delivered to the World Bank in batches (typically 10%, 50% and 100%). These data deliveries are checked for logical consistency, out of range values, skip patterns, and duplicate entries. Problems are flagged by the World Bank and corrected by the implementing contractor through data checks, callbacks, and revisiting establishments. The user of the data acknowledges that the original collector of the data, the authorized distributor of the data, and the relevant funding agency bear no responsibility for use of the data or for interpretations or inferences based upon such uses.
