March 2015 Editorial

摘要

Welcome to the first issue of the Statistical Journal of the IAOS in 2015. In this issue, we'll cover an interview with the Director of the Lesotho Bureau of Statistics, introduce a special section on local area data as well as other interesting topics. As usual, Kirsten West, as the IAOS Statistical Journal Interview Editor, asked the questions and edited what you have in this Issue. This time she was assisted by Dr. Muriel Dow, pictured on the left above. Dr. Dow is a Resident Technical Advisor at IHM - the Institute of Health Measurement Lesotho. Dr. Dow is also the Africa Editor for our IAOS Statistical Journal.
