Abstract

This article describes the multilingual landscape aspect of the Isan Culture Maintenance and Revitalization Programme (ICMRP), a 500,000-euro, four-year European Union co-sponsored cultural maintenance and revival project focusing on the Thai Lao, Thailand’s largest ethnic minority community, in four municipalities in Northeast Thailand. The article begins by situating the multilingual landscape of the ICMRP within a holistic project, including manufacturing ‘ethnic’ student and municipal uniforms, teaching Isan as a mother tongue, recording a multimedia cultural archive, and designing and installing multilingual signage. It then argues the ICMRP’s multilingual landscape should be understood within a framework involving geosemiotics, the linguistic landscape, and language policy and planning. The ICMRP’s multilingual landscape contributes to the standardisation of a Thai Lao alphabet and spelling. It also seeks to officialise Thai Lao, through official signage, and thereby promote Thai Lao’s revival, as part of meeting Thailand’s human rights obligations as well as ASEAN community building.

城市景观的影响:艾桑文化维护和振兴计划的各个方面
本文描述了Isan文化维护和振兴计划(ICMRP)的多语言景观方面,这是一个50万欧元,为期四年的欧盟共同赞助的文化维护和复兴项目,重点关注泰国东北部四个城市中泰国最大的少数民族社区Thai Lao。本文首先将ICMRP的多语言景观置于一个整体项目中,包括制造“民族”学生和市政制服,以母语教授伊斯坦语,记录多媒体文化档案,以及设计和安装多语言标志。然后,它认为ICMRP的多语言景观应该在一个涉及地理符号学、语言景观、语言政策和规划的框架内理解。ICMRP的多语种格局有助于泰、寮语字母和拼写的标准化。它还寻求通过官方标志使泰语正式化,从而促进泰语的复兴,作为履行泰国人权义务和东盟共同体建设的一部分。
