What is happening in the other parts of the globe demonstrates no differences from Bamgbose‘s observation, but in fact many have similarities with what is taking place in Thailand. The subtle form of language loss issue has become one of the major items on the national news and agenda in Thailand (กรุงเทพธุรกิจ, 2550; คมชัดลึก, 2550b) issues such as code-mixing between Thai and English and speaking Thai with English accents have become areas of concern. The government recently set up an agency to be in charge of the issue and to make sure that the Thai linguistic/cultural heritage will survive against the threat of English (คมชัดลึก, 2550a). However, this has not yet come to be the major focus of the ELT circle in the country.
