"This new and expanded edition features numerous updates of the research data and information to reflect current ELT policies in the various East Asian countries and includes two new chapters, one on Mongolia and the other on Hong Kong SAR." "All the contributors are "insiders" in the sense that they are resident in the respective countries or have worked there for a long time: they know the local languages and are able to provide a localised perspective on the different facets of ELT in their respective education systems as well as the challenges facing English teachers there."--BOOK JACKET.
