Despite this, efforts to implement multilingualism, advocated by language educators and policy makers, have been marred by political and religious affiliations. Drawing on two decades of field research, this timely analysis of language variation in Malaysia is an important contribution to the understanding not only of linguistic pluralism in the country, but also of the Indian Diaspora, and of the effects of language change on urban migrant populations. The research presented here will be of interest to scholars of Southeast Asian and South Asian Studies. 410 0$aIIAS publications series.$pEdited volumes ;$v5. 517 3 $aNational language planning and language shifts in Malaysian minority communities 606 $aLanguage planning$zMalaysia 607 $aMalaysia$xLanguages 610 $ataal 610 $alanguage 610 $aBengali language 610 $aBidayuh 610 $aKuching 610 $aMalay language 610 $aMalays (ethnic group) 610 $aMalaysia 610 $aMalaysian language 610 $aSarawak 610 $aSindhis 610 $aTamil language 615 0$aLanguage planning 676 $a499.2 700 $aMukherjee$b Dipika$4edt$01333082 702 $aMukherjee$b Dipika$f1965- 702 $aDavid$b Maya Khemlani 712 02$aInternational Institute for Asian Studies. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910141301803321 996 $aNational language planning & language shifts in Malaysian minority communities$93041567 997 $aUNINA
