  • Hybridity in Singaporean Cinema: Othering the Self Through Diaspora and Language Policies in Ilo Ilo and Letters from the South
    FM4204: Time, Space and the Visceral in South East Asian Cinema Hybridity in Singaporean Cinema: Othering the Self through Diaspora and Language Policies in Ilo Ilo and Letters from the South Student Name: Amanda Curdt-Christiansen Matriculation Number: 140008304 Module Tutor: Dr Philippa Lovatt Date: 21/05/18 Word Count: 3849 FM4204 140008304 爸妈不在家/Ilo Ilo is a Singaporean film directed by Anthony Chen and released in 2013. It recounts the unanticipated development of a relationship between a Filipina woman, Teresa, and a Chinese-Singaporean boy, Jiale, whom she is employed to look after. The story unfurls against the backdrop of the Asian financial crisis of 1997, showcasing the struggle of a very young country in maintaining its core values, its independence, and its dignity in the face of economic disaster. 南方来信/Letters from the South is comprised of six short films from Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Myanmar, released in 2013. Of these, I will be focusing on Sun Koh’s film, Singapore Panda, which examines tensions between national and cultural identity in the Chinese diaspora in Singapore. This essay will aim to explicate how diasporic communities maintain (or fail to maintain) their cultural identity in Singaporean cinema. Using Ilo Ilo and Singapore Panda as a starting point, I will unpack how divergent cultural backgrounds colour the style of popular Singaporean films, particularly in their treatment of space. I will begin by providing a contextualisation of the films in terms of the Singaporean political climate: language policy, post-colonial policy, and how these contribute to conflict between the nation and the self.

  • Intra and Intersentential Code-Switching Phenomena in Modern Malay Songs
    3L: The Southeast Asian Journal of English Language Studies – Vol 24(3): 184 – 205 http://doi.org/10.17576/3L-2018-2403-14 Intra and Intersentential Code-switching Phenomena in Modern Malay Songs WAN NUR SYAZA SAHIRA WAN RUSLI Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia AZIANURA HANI SHAARI Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia SITI ZAIDAH ZAINUDDIN Department of English Language, Faculty of Languages and Linguistics University Malaya [email protected] NG LAY SHI Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia AIZAN SOFIA AMIN Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia ABSTRACT Code-switching has been used in many languages by many different groups of people or speech communities, but little is known about how and why they are used as communicative strategies in modern song lyrics. This paper aims to explore and describe the recent phenomenon of English code-switching in modern Malay songs. 25 modern Malay songs were selected and analysed using Content Analysis. The analysis was made based on Poplack’ Theory as well as the functions of code-switching proposed by Appel and Musyken. Two types of code- switching commonly used in modern Malay songs were discovered. They were intrasentential and intersentential code-switching. The classification of the functions of code-switching was then made based on the six functions of code-switching, which are referential, directive, expressive, phatic, metalinguistic, and poetic. The findings of this research also indicate other functions of code-switching that demonstrate bilingual creativity among songwriters in Malaysia. In conclusion, the findings of this study indicated that code switching in Modern Malay songs is not just a random switch from one code to another but carries certain social functions that emphasize on the establishment of people’s intimacy, solidarity and local identity.

  • Global Cities, Local Knowledge
    Formatting and Change in East Asian Television Industries: Media Globalization and Regional Dynamics Lim, Wei Ling Tania Patricia BSocSc (Hons), MSc (Media & Comms) Creative Industries Research and Applications Centre Queensland University of Technology Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2005 Keywords Circuit of cultural production, East Asian popular culture, Television industries, Field of broadcasting, Formatting, Local knowledge, Media capitals, Neo-networks, Regional dynamics, TV Formats, martial arts dramas, teenage idol soap operas, game-shows. ii Abstract Television is increasingly both global and local. Those television industries discussed in this thesis transact in an extensive neo-network of flows in talents, financing, and the latest forms of popular culture. These cities attempt to become media capitals but their status waxes and wanes, depending on their success in exporting their Asian media productions. What do marital arts dramas, interactive game-shows, children’s animation and teenage idol soap operas from East Asian television industries have in common? Through the systematic use of TV formatting strategies, these television genres have become the focus for indigenous cultural entrepreneurs located in the East Asian cities of Hong Kong, Singapore and Taipei to turn their local TV programmes into tradable culture. This thesis is a re-consideration of the impact of media globalisation on Asian television that re-imagines a new global media order. It suggests that there is a growing shift in perception and trade among once-peripheral television industries that they may be slowly de-centring Hollywood’s dominance by inserting East Asian popular entertainment into familiar formats or cultural spaces through embracing global yet local cultures of production.
