| Notes:The data referring to 'Labour'
and those in Tables 25-4, 25-5 and 25-6 are provided by Employment Survey.
Since the population estimates, |
| which serve as the base for statistical inference in the Employment
Survey, have been adjusted after
Census 2001, the resulting indicators for |
| the previous periods before 2001 were thus revised accordingly. |
| Because there are no data
available on the revenue and expenditure of autonomous bodies in the specific
accounts of 2003, the total revenue |
| and the total expenditure of 2003 are not directly comparable with
those of 2002. Figures of 2003 are subject to revisions as more data |
| become available. |
| Pataca (MOP) is the legal
tender in the Macao Special Administrative Region, as stated in "The
Basic Law of the Macao Special |
| Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China". |
| Excluding the units that
had been sold. |
| Excluding students in
special education. The number of students of year n refer to the students at
the end of academic year n/n+1. |
