Early submission procedure:

Abstracts may be submitted right away, or at any time before
the 15 May deadline.

Persons submitting their abstracts early will be notified
immediately whether their paper has been accepted for
presentation at the symposium, and, in case of acceptance,
will immediately be sent an official letter of invitation.
(The early submission procedure is designed to make it easier
for some participants to apply for funding and leave.)

###

Papers to be presented at the symposium should be concerned
with the Malay / Indonesian language in ANY of its varieties.
In addition to the standardized versions of Bahasa Melayu and
Bahasa Indonesia, papers are particularly welcome dealing
with non-canonical varieties such as Peranakan Malay, Bazaar
Malay, and regional dialects of Malay and Indonesian.  Papers
may be in any of the subfields of linguistics, and may
represent variegated approaches and diverse theoretical
persuasions. Presentations at the symposium will be delivered
in English.
