Demographics and Ratio of Panel Composition

Vietnam is one of the most populous countries in the Asia Pacific region with an estimated population of nearly 95 million. Compared to the population composition, the ratio of panelists in the 40+ age range is small which may prove to be a challenge in collecting the data. Data collection and response rate for older panelists depend on the location and schedule.

Local Pro Tip

In Vietnam, there are many ways to address others and yourself. For example, Vietnamese words such as minh, toi, to, and tui all mean 'I' or 'me', but with different contexts. You will need to pay attention to age and gender to use the right word to address yourself and others.
