Abstract :
This year’s issue - Volume 15 2009 - marks a new beginning for the 3L Journal, as it is now an electronic journal, or e-journal, on an open access platform, available for all who are interested in the pursuit and development of English Language Studies. Being marketed as the South East Asian Journal of English Language Studies, it focuses on broad issues in English language in the region but welcomes voices and viewpoints from other parts of the world as well. It is our hope that the journal provides an avenue for writers from this region to publish their work and to subsequently serve as a repository of academic research and articles from the South East Asian Region.Volume 15 sees 7 articles drawn from various areas of English Language Studies coming together in an interesting and eclectic mix of research and points of view. The articles in this volume explore the shared voices in different domains of discourse; culture and public spheres.
