This conference aims to examine public policies in the maintenance of group 
identity through language and culture, attitude of the minority in maintaining 
their own identity in the context of their adopted country, attitude of the
majority in accommodating the minorioty's cultural traits as part of the
overall identity and factors for and against assimilation or integration of
minority language and culture into the general policy.  The term 'culture'
is to be taken in the broadest sense, embracing both material and
non-material culture.
