Continuous digital transformation to ensure quality data for policy making: Centre

New Delhi: The Centre on Saturday said it is committed to completing the digital transformation process to ensure timely and quality data is consistently available for policy making, on way to becoming Viksit Bharat by 2047. This digital transformation represents unwavering commitment to making official statistics more timely, reliable, and accessible in line with the needs of a data-driven New India. 'Our goal is to empower every citizen, researcher, and policymaker with quality data that drives informed decision-making and supports India's ambitious development goals by 2047,' said Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation in a statement. The National Statistical Office (NSO), under the ministry, has significantly advanced its comprehensive digital transformation journey over the past year. Building on the foundational launch of the eSankhyiki portal on National Statistics Day on June 29, 2024, the momentum has continued with the successful deployment of a more than a dozen new digital modules, portals, and websites, marking a pivotal first phase that prioritised data dissemination and data collection being the pubic facing services of the ministry. The past year has witnessed the launch of several key digital assets that enhance transparency and improve data accessibility for researchers, policymakers, and the public. Prominent among these developments are the DI Lab (Data Innovation Lab), OCMS, Metadata portals, and new dedicated websites for the National Statistical System Training Academy (NSSTA) and the National Statistical Commission (NSC). Additionally, NSO has introduced public-facing dashboards for critical statistical domains including the Social Statistics Division (SSD), Annual Survey of Industries (ASI), Economic Census (EC), and National Sample Survey (NSS) as part of eSankhyiki portal, providing stakeholders with real-time access to India's official statistics. With these additions, this portal has more than 135 million records. Demonstrating its commitment to innovation and future-readiness, the ministry has identified seven key use cases for integrating emerging technologies into its statistical operations. With the expansion of its digital ecosystem, the ministry has also placed the highest priority on securing its national data assets.

Man Asks If RM5,000 Is Enough To Survive In KL As A Single Person

Subscribe to our FREE In the 2023 Economic Census conducted by the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM), the state of Kuala Lumpur receives the highest average monthly salary compared to the other states. However, this does not mean all city workers are high earning individuals. In Kuala Lumpur, workers generally earn an average monthly salary of RM4,196 while those in Selangor gets an average of RM3,563 monthly and RM3,496 monthly in Penang. There have been many questions regarding salaries online and recently, a Threads user Luqie Digital Diaries asked whether RM5,000 is enough for someone in their 20s living alone in the city. Luqie shared that he does digital marketing and earns around RM1,800 plus in the first week of March. He could only shop with what's leftover in his TnG account. Netizens weigh in As always, the answer lies in several factors, such as the individual's cost of living, like their house rent, lifestyle expenditure, and more. Netizens believe RM5,000 for a single person living alone is more than enough for living day-to-day but it may not be enough for comfortable living without worries. READ MORE: This is proven by another user who earns RM2,800 a month and lives alone in Bangsar without financial support from parents. The person shared they could save RM2,000 a month and the room rental is only RM300. The remainder is used to buy food and other essential needs. Many agreed that it's possible to live within their means with RM5,000 as a single person if they can find cheap rental and forgo a luxurious lifestyle. However, the same amount of salary will not be enough for those supporting their family with children. This is despite living modestly and not being addicted to materialism. Another person in their 20s who still lives with her parents in Kuala Lumpur admitted that RM7,000 was not enough for her due to her love for high-end items. She reiterated that everyone has different needs and wants. READ MORE: Unfortunately, some admitted they found it hard to downgrade their lifestyle after having a taste of it. This led to another user reminding everyone not to upgrade their lifestyle too quickly because the exciting lifestyle could soon outpace their increased earnings. TLDR: A high pay without proper budgeting and discipline will still see you living poorly. READ MORE: Share your thoughts with us via TRP's .
