Standards and Linguistic Realities of English in the Malaysian Workplace

Abstract

When researching into the word ‘standards’, I typed in the search term ‘standards’ in the computer at the university library and when the ‘enter’ key was pressed, I obtained the following impressive list: It is obvious from the above listing that standards are an essential component and permeate every aspect of our lives. They provide a point of reference so that one journeys through life with a clear and purposeful sense of direction. Without standards in all these fields, there would be no benchmark to measure against — no yardstick to compare levels of achievement or required sets of criteria. Unfortunately in the long list of items, there was no listing for the category ‘standards and language’.
