The conference aims to promote translation and interpretation as an emerging field in Thailand, and to encourage an exchange of ideas among translation and interpretation scholars as well as practitioners from across the world. Papers are invited on all aspects of translation and interpretation. Twenty-first century Thailand sees a growing need for translation as a result of globalization and the advent of cyberspace. The Free Trade Agreement between Asian countries to be signed in 2010 will likely increase trade activities, but this may be hampered by communication breakdowns stemming from differences in linguistic and cultural background. Translators and interpreters therefore play an important role in intercultural communication and in fostering good relations between peoples. With Translation Studies a relatively new field in Thailand, the conference will serve as a forum for an exchange of ideas among scholars, translators and interpreters from across the globe. 2nd Call For Papers Papers may be submitted via e-mail to icti_thailandchula.ac.th and cc to Dr. Tongtip Poonlarp (tongtiphotmail.com) by 1 June 2010.
