     A spokesman for the Census and Statistics Department said today (December 4), "The 2021 Population Census will be conducted from June to August next year. The competitions aim to raise public awareness of the 2021 Population Census and to encourage the use of online questionnaires."
 
     There are two divisions for the Poster Design Competition (Junior Primary and Senior Primary) and two divisions for the Mobile Messaging Application Sticker Design Competition (Junior Secondary and Senior Secondary). Entrants may enter as an individual or as part of a team.
