Interviewer instructions

Year and month of birth. Use provided codes for month. Year should be recorded with 4-digits. If the respondent only knows the Burmese calendar, you will record the Burmese month and year under those columns. Leave the columns for the western month and year blank, during the interview- you will do the conversion upon returning from the field as to avoid any hurried miscalculations.
