Abstract: Tracking cause of death statistics is crucial to monitoring the health of the people. It is also important for the calculation of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators such as 3.4.1 (Mortality rates attributed to cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes or chronic respiratory disease), 3.4.2 (Suicide mortality rate), 3.6.1 (Death rate due to road traffic injuries), 3.9.1(Mortality rate attributed to household and ambient air pollution), 3.9.2 (Mortality rate attributed to unsafe water, unsafe sanitation, and lack of hygiene) and 3.9.3 (Mortality rate attributed to unintentional poisoning). However, the quality of cause of death statistics in Asia is often insufficient.
