Dear Michael,

I cataloged your thesis and submitted a proposal to the Library of
Congress for a new subject heading for "Moklen language". It was made
official in September 2003. See: http://authorities.loc.gov/

HEADING: Moklen language
Used For/See From: Chau pok language
Search Also Under: Malayan languages Thailand Languages
Found In: Work cat.: Larish, M.D. The position of Moken and Moklen
within the Austronesian language family, 1999 (Moklen; spoken by Moklen
in S. Thailand; distinct from Moken; related to Austronesian langs.)
Dalby, D. Linguasphere register of the world's languages and speech
communities, 2000 (Moklen, lang. spoken in S. Thailand)
Ethnologue, July 24, 2003 (Moklen lang. spoken on the west coast of
Thailand;
alternatively called: Chau pok;
considered a western Austronesian lang.) Ruhlen world lang. (Moklen)
Not Found In: Curr. trends ling.; Voegelin lang.

In July 2003 I also submitted proposals to create specific Library of
Congress classification numbers for the Moken and Moklen languages
under the Austronesian languages. These are still pending. I'll keep
you posted.

Aloha,

 Aloha, UH-Manoa Folks:

      Somebody please steal my doctoral dissertation, read it, and give
me some feedback!  It concerns the Moken and Moklen of Burma and
Thailand: linguistic descriptions, ethnographic matters, and historical
comparative work.  Since I finished it in 1999, I have gotten almost no
feedback from graduate students or other scholars.
