Editorial 

 

  

Volume 9 of the AsiaCALL OnLine Journal (ACOJ) marks a turning point in the life of the journal 

after a period of inactivity resulting from a re-structure of the AsiaCALL organisation. We look 

forward to renewing our mission of providing high quality research and other publications. We 

now have a new website (http://asiacall.info/acoj) and a new set of editorial policies to ensure 

publications of the highest quality. We also have instituted an Advisory Board for the Journal 

consisting of distinguished academics all with significant editorial experience. They will help guide 

the journal forward into the future. Appointed members of the Advisory Board are: 

 

 Associate Professor Dr. Saadiyah Darus, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia 

 Professor Dr. Kuo, Feng-Lan, National Changhua University of Education, Taiwan 

 Professor Dr. Wuri Soedjatmiko, Universitas Katolik Widya Mandala, Indonesia 

 Professor Emeritus Dr. Roland D. Sussex, OAM, University of Queensland, Australia 

 Associate Professor Dr. Chatchai Trakulrungsi, Rangsit University, Thailand 

 

Also on the Advisory Board are two ex-officio members: 

 Chair: Professor Dr. Andrew Lian, Suranaree University of Technology, Thailand; Ho 

Chi Minh City Open University, Vietnam; University of Canberra, Australia (as President 

of AsiaCALL) 

 Dr. Ania B. Lian, Charles Darwin University, Australia (as Chief Editor) 

 

Of course, we continue to have our Editorial Board which we look forward to enlarging. 

 

As of the date of writing of this editorial, the AsiaCALL OnLine Journal Volume 9, 2014 contains 

three research articles. This number will increase with time. Our policy is to welcome articles and 

other contributions at any time of the year. We will seek to publish them in the order that they are 

approved within eight weeks of submission subject, of course, to our editorial/reviewing policy. 

Please note that the AsiaCALL OnLine Journal does not charge a publication fee. 

 

Let me issue a very warm invitation to researchers and CALL enthusiasts everywhere to submit 

articles and other relevant contributions. I look forward to working with you in furthering the 

mission of all those with an interest in CALL and, of course, the interests of AsiaCALLers in 

particular.
