Question 54: What is the main type of fuel (energy) your household is using for cooking?
Cooking includes the cooking of rice, foods, and boiling of drinking water. The main type of fuel (energy) used for cooking is the one that the household used most for cooking in the last year (12 months prior to the census day).

Based on the answer of the respondent, the enumerator marks (x) in the appropriate small box. The fuel (energy) used for cooking comprises the following: electricity, kerosene, gas, wood, and others. In actual situations, there would be households who did not use any types of fuels to cook foods for long periods of time. They are used to eating at restaurants or canteens. In this case, the enumerator marks (x) in the small box next to code "7".
