Plenary sessions

The program features two exciting plenary sessions.

Plenary session I is a timely methodological discussion. It emphasizes future directions for linguistic fieldwork amidst the rapidly changing political, economic, and social circumstances in Southeast Asia, particularly how the approaching ASEAN integration could impact the linguistic diversity and linguistic fieldwork in this region.

Plenary session II is a long-awaited revisit to the issue of deeper genetic relationships in Southeast Asia. Focusing on Austro-Tai and STAN hypotheses, this special panel brings together experts representing the linguistic phyla of SEA as well as outsider perspectives. It aims to access past research and addresses prospects on the diachronic relationship among the SEA language families and between them and language families farther afield.
