international seminar on sign language research

this is my back-to-back entry posts.i went to international seminar on sign language research held in Fac.of Language and LInguistics,Univ Malaya.The two days seminar was really a hit for me and i must say it enlightened me most!the topics and discussion is so fresh and invigorating and i got the direct access and answer from the very own experience of deaf people and researchers themselves.

as usual i took some pics.(somehow a bit jauh)

opening ceremony toh puan hjh aisyah ong,prof azirah n prof zubaidah,i dont know his name

the presenter from CHinese Univeristy of Hong Kong,Dr Felix Tze,on her research of deaf lingustics .
sort of longitudinal study.

dr liza martinez from deaf NGO in philipines

dr abdullah yusuff from inst.perguruan Kota bharu,one of the reknown
deaf expertise in malaysia

the last session : plenary @ Q&A session
mr abdullah rahim from UM,dr felix tse,Rev. charles dettmeier,prof Bell R.T,Prof Zubaidah Bell
and the interpreter ( i fogot his name)

i ended up asking 12 written questions and 2 oral questions.there was so much i want to know yet the time is soooo limited.ill take sign language course after this (for sure,got cert what!)

moral:its better to conduct a seminar in place like this rather than hotels,the fees are so cheap yet the knowledge is priceless!one thing:sponsorship helps the cut the cost of the kais pagi makan pagi grad stud that depends on allowances..hihihihiks
