IMPLICATION FROM DEVELOPMENT AND EXPANSION OF THE CODES AND CLASSIFICATION


IMPLEMENTATION OF MSIC 2008 AND MCPA 2008 MSIC 2008 Rev 1.0 are finalised on August 2008,

the implementation process of MSIC 2008 involves: Providing training and exposure toward new codes for the

users Process of conversion of all system, time series data and

SIDAP frame. MSIC will be used in the Population and Housing Census

of Malaysia 2010. January 2010, all surveys carried out by DOSM will

be fully implement due to the interdependency between MSIC and MCPA, DOSM targeted to finalized the next version MCPA by June 2009


CHALLENGES AND ISSUES CONCERNING ISIC REV. 4 AND CPC 2.0 Revision of MSIC and MCPA should be concurrent

because of the interdependency, have to prioritize only one because of the scarcity of workload and time.

The use and conversion to new codes will affect time series data. publishing activities under manufacturing moved to services in

the ISIC Rev. 4 (Information and communication) The production of ice, including ice for food and non-food (e.g.

cooling) purposes has been classified under class 3530 - utility steam and air conditioning supply and not classified as manufacturing as in the ISIC Rev.3

Expansion and combination of ISIC codes The mapping process for these industries will be done manually

and very time consuming


CHALLENGES AND ISSUES CONCERNING ISIC REV. 4 AND CPC 2.0 In the process of developing the new MCPA, we found

that: For the CPC 2.0 code 63310 – Meal serving services with full

restaurant services, we suggest that for ”food preparation and related beverage service furnished in hotels or other lodging places” should come under the industry code 5510 – Short term accommodation. This is because most of the restaurants, coffee houses in hotels are usually owned by the hotel. When these restaurants came under a different industry code (5610), it will raise to inaccuracy of the data.

For the CPC Group 833 – Engineering services, we suggest that for specific engineering field, it should be classified separately and not under engineering services code 7110 – Architectural and engineering activities and related technical consultancy.


CONCLUSION

Will always update new codes along with international changes from time to time

Through the Inter-Agency Technical Committee (IATC) which comprise of representatives from a related government agencies, the coordination and monitoring of the implementation and use of standardized codes, classifications and definitions developed in the Department and Other Government Agencies (OGAs) can be done.
