“Sama Na, Census Na!” Three-Part Series Opening Billboard.

As the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) continues to conduct its nationwide count and data gathering through the 2020 Census of Population and Housing (2020 CPH), the final episode of the 3-Part TV Special entitled “Sama Na, Census Na” will be aired this Sunday, 27 September 2020 at PTV-4 from 11am to 12pm (with simultaneous livestream on Facebook at www.facebook.com/PTVph/, and Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7MVpSkkfs1ys7RT_8s06sQ).

In the past two episodes of “Sama Na, Census Na”, the program aimed at showing the work done by PSA in encouraging everyone to take part in the 2020 CPH in the month of September.

Hosted by former Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) Deputy Administrator Arnell Ignacio, he continues to educate the people on various interesting topics regarding the 2020 Census of Population and Housing.

On the third episode, government officials of towns, cities, and regions in the country show support to the 2020 CPH campaign from their respective areas. We will also learn the stories of the “heroes in action” of the 2020 CPH enumerator, visiting every nook and cranny of the country to get everyone counted. More questions about the benefits of the 2020 CPH will also be answered by Mr. Joseph P. Cajita, Chief of the Population and Housing Census Division of PSA. More influencers that helped promote the 2020 Census of Population and Housing in their respective social media accounts, will also be featured. A short feature is also included for updates on the Philippine Identification System (Philsys).

Aside from the informative and entertaining topics, televiewers also get to learn fun facts, and behind the scenes cuts of the 2020 CPH campaign, like the guesting of the WeIRD Band, who performed the 2020 CPH theme song on the Wish 107.5 FM Bus, the very first FM station-on-wheels in the country.

Find all of these and more this Sunday … in “Sama Na, Census Na!”
