<p style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><span style="font-family:Arial">At this
conference, GLOCAFIL introduces a new trend of using one Filipino keyword that
will spell out the theme. <i>Kahusayan</i> (Excellence) is the choice for
this year. Considering the history
of the Filipino language and the various challenges that it faced from the time
the idea of a national language was conceived, there is no other objective more
applicable. If Filipino is to be
used in all fields and disciplines, it should be the quality at its best. This means that all practitioners,
users, teachers and students of the language are striving to find ways that
will showcase achieving the highest proficiency, the best performance in the
language, the best teaching methodology, the best assessment practices,
etc. Doing so means honoring
Filipino, both as a language and as an identity tool of the Filipino people.</span></p>
