I see myself primarily as a sociolinguist, but I also conduct research in applied linguistics, specifically, those that explore issues related to language minorities. My training in analysing linguistics issues in multilingual communities has been put to use in the fertile context of Singapore where bilingualism is a norm and multilingualism influences every aspect of the society. Hence, my research direction involves exploring language use and attitudes in this multilingual context and I believe that there are still many interesting questions to be explored. This research interest is in line with the division’s focus on multilingualism.
