Welcome Messages

Dear colleague,

On behalf of the 2020 International Conference on Southeast Asian Studies (2020 ICSEAS), we would like to thank you very much for submitting your abstracts. From 2017, ICSEAS has been organized by the Department of Southeast Asian Studies, Wenzao Ursuline University of Languages in Kaohsiung City, Taiwan. We have built a wonderful platform for scholars, researchers specializing in Southeast Asia studies in the past three years.

Although we have to make a difficult and tough decision to cancel the 2020 ICSEAS scheduled for October 22-24, due to the challenge of the Covid-19 epidemic since January, we are still searching the possibility to continue the academic connection. For this reason, we decide to hold a one-day conference “2020 Wenzao Ursuline International Conference on Southeast Asian Studies for Junior Researchers” to invite junior researchers who are already in Taiwan to present papers or to be the moderators.

Also we are going to invite the graduate students of Southeast Asian Studies from Wenzao University, National Kaohsiung Normal University and National Chi Nan University to build graduate panels and promote the academic exchanges.
