Thank you to everyone who participated in the fith ENUS conference!
Terima kasih banyak atas kehadiran anda!

In the past, four International Conferences for East Nusantara Linguistics have been held; three in Leiden (1998, 2001, 2005), and one at the Australian National University in Canberra (2000). With this fifth conference the location moves to Indonesia, and more specifically to the East Nusantara region. Also, the focus of the conference has been expanded to include language, culture, tourism, and economic development. The conference will be hosted by Universitas Nusa Cendana (UNDANA), with the support of Prof. Dr. Frans Umbu Datta, Rektor.

The aim of this conference is to bring together linguists, anthropologists, ethnographers, musicologists, and others who work in the east Nusantara region to share the results of their research with each other. The East Nusantara region includes eastern Indonesia and Timor L'este, and Austronesian as well as non-Austronesian languages.

The conference will be held at the UNDANA Language Center (Pusat Bahasa) on the Penfui campus and at the conference hotels. The language of the conference is Indonesia and English. Papers may be presented in either language. No translation services will be provided.
