Cause of death data was collected by structured questionnaire using verbal autopsy (VA) technique and was classified based on ICD 9 and ICD 10. Results: The disease patterns of cause of death from 1992 to 2007 showed the non-communicable disease is increasing continuously while communicable disease (infectious, maternal and perinatal, nutritional deficiencies) is decreasing; however the burden of disease is still present on both groups of diseases.
