Discovery Channel (Asia) Highlights
Endangered Languages Around The World (Vignette)
In response to the statement made by linguists
attending the International Linguistics Congress
in Quebec in 1992 - urging UNESCO to do
something for the endangered and dying languages
in the world - UNESCO adopted at its conference
in November 1993 the 'Endangered Languages
Project' including the 'Red Book of Endangered
Languages'. Several efforts have been carried
out elsewhere in the world and finally it come
to Sabah, Malaysia. A Discovery Network Asia
team from Singapore came in October 2002 to
document one of the identified endangered
languages, i.e, the Kadazan/Dusun language. The
team, led by producer Ida Tan, was brought to
visit centers that teach the Kadazandusun
language. The 60-second vignette is going to be
aired on 21 February 2003 in conjunction with
the International Mother Language Day (IMLD) as
declared by UNESCO and will be celebrated for
