Demographic information is an important source to the administrators and planners in determining the living status of the population in a particular area. This information act as a guideline in determining the planning priority that need to be implemented for that area. However the main problem frequently faced by the administrators and planners in most developing countries like Malaysia is the difficulty in getting a complete and up-to-date information. The most effective effort to overcome the problem is by developing a database system which enable a complete and up-to-date demographic information based on the division of area (for example, administrative border) being kept and accessed.
