Papers presented at ISMIL are concerned with the Malay/Indonesian

Malayic languages.  Papers may be in any of the subfields of
linguistics, and may represent variegated approaches and diverse
theoretical persuasions. Presentations at ISMIL are delivered in
English, as is befitting an international symposium.
