Why You'll Need an Interpreter for Your Conference in Malaysia?
Discover whether hiring an interpreter is essential for your conference in Malaysia, considering the country's linguistic diversity and the needs of your attendees. Optimize communication and inclusivity for a successful event.
Are you considering organizing a conference in Malaysia? One of the first questions that may come to mind is whether you need an interpreter for your event, considering that English is widely spoken in the country. While it's true that English is a commonly used language in Malaysia, the need for an interpreter ultimately depends on various factors, including the demographics of your attendees, the complexity of the subject matter, and the level of language proficiency required for effective communication.
First and foremost, it's essential to recognize Malaysia's multicultural and multilingual society. While English serves as the primary language of business, education, and government, it coexists alongside Malay (Bahasa Malaysia), Chinese dialects (such as Mandarin and Cantonese), and Indian languages (such as Tamil and Hindi). Additionally, Malaysia is home to a significant expatriate population, with individuals from diverse linguistic backgrounds residing and working in the country.
In light of this linguistic diversity, the decision to hire an interpreter in Malaysia for your conference should be guided by the needs and preferences of your attendees. If your event attracts participants from various linguistic backgrounds or if the content of your conference requires specialized terminology or technical jargon, having an interpreter can enhance comprehension and ensure that all attendees can fully engage with the presentations and discussions.
Furthermore, an interpreter can facilitate seamless communication and bridge any language barriers that may arise during Q&A sessions, panel discussions, or networking opportunities. By providing interpretation services, you demonstrate inclusivity and accommodation for attendees who may not be fluent in English or who prefer to receive information in their native language.
Moreover, even for participants who are proficient in English, having the option of interpretation can still be beneficial, especially if the conference covers complex or nuanced topics where precise understanding is crucial. By offering interpretation services, you ensure that all attendees have equal access to information and can fully participate in the conference proceedings.
Ultimately, while English proficiency is widespread in Malaysia, the decision to hire an interpreter for your conference should be based on the specific needs and demographics of your audience, as well as the nature of the content being presented. By carefully considering these factors, you can ensure that your conference is accessible, engaging, and inclusive for all attendees, regardless of their linguistic background or proficiency.

Writing Professionalism: Responding to Criticism Effectively
Struggling to respond to criticism when working with clients? These tips can help you evaluate criticism and respond effectively and professionally.
Responding to criticism effectively can be challenging when dealing with clients, but these tips can help you assess and answer criticism in a professional manner.
Focus on the Objective
Make sure you are clear on the objective of the project as a whole and its individual components. If you’ve missed the objective in some way, the adjustments the client is asking for may be needed to more…
By the way, when I say that I really do believe that we will make it, I am 100% saying that as someone who has been following good news extensively + basically daily for over two years now, and has come to that conclusion slowly and deliberately, based on extensive available evidence. It's not a platitude. I genuinely do mean it, and I could write you a whole dissertation on all the reasons why.
(you know. if I had the time and an in-progress doctorate. rip.)
In case you haven't heard last December AEW filmed one of their shows in Oklahoma. On this show AEW star Nyla Rose had a squash match honestly the same type of squash match she's had dozens of times now.
And before I go any further into what happened as a result I just want to point out that Nyla Rose has an online merch store with plenty of awesome designs. I personally love the cereal box design myself! https://www.prowrestlingtees.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=+Nyla+rose
It turns out that the Oklahoma Athletic Commission has a snitch line in case YOU catch a transgender individual living their life within the confines of the state.
What did this result in? Well it resulted in AEW being issued a warning at the January board meeting that if they let it happen again there would be 'punitive damages'.
Here's a quick little video snippet from a wrestling news site in the UK talking about it. (Spoilers they do reveal that professional wrestling isn't actually real.) https://youtu.be/kPsyIQpRXyI?si=t1F-MWa0ziai3W-m&t=448
Also for all you TERFs, and transphobes going on about how it's enough of a sport. You need to research all the times where it's legally been deemed a performance and not a competition. I'll start you off with the easiest most well known one; New Jersey State Senate 1989. That was the case that proved globally that wrestling was rigged, fake, etc. I know that many of you are allergic to facts but if there are some that do want to know you can start your search.
Anyhow, though I shouldn't be I am surprised that a governmental agency believes professional wrestling is.
🍁 There is positive and challenging traits in every planet no matter if it’s a benefic or malefic planet. Malefic planets just happen to have MORE challenging traits than the benefic planets
🍁 Pluto/Scorpio/8th house placements can show where we have the most control over how others view/perceive us and 10th house placements can show where we don’t
🍁 People with Mars in the 11th house can manifest things very quickly. This is because Mars rules over speed/desires and the 11th house rules over manifesting
🍁 Neptune can show what addictions we have and Pluto can show our obsessions -> addictions based on Neptune
🍁 Pluto can represent toxicity but people always get it twisted and think that means Scorpio placements are toxic which is untrue. Astrology is a polarity and you can take on positive and challenging traits. Not every Scorpio will take on the trait of being toxic especially if there’s a lot of positive aspects to your Pluto or Scorpio placements
🍁 The 4th and 5th house can tell about your favorite holidays. This is because the 4th house rules over traditions and the 5th house rules over festivities
🍁 Having your 5th house ruler in the 9th house can indicate talent in photography
🍁 If you have a Synastry aspect with benefic planets but it happens to be a square/opposite aspect it will still bring challenges regardless. This doesn’t mean it’s inherently negative though as challenges can of course be worked through and bring a positive outcome through effort
🍁 Your Saturn in somebody’s 2nd house in Synastry can indicate you having a trauma bond with the 2nd house person
🍁 Pluto in the 7th house in Composite Charts (if this specific challenging trait is taken on) can indicate you both love the toxicity in your relationship and are addicted to the pain because it’s a constant roller coaster and thrill for you both. Kind of similar to a Nate and Maddy from Euphoria type vibe
How to Hold Yourself Accountable as a Professional Writer
Okay maybe you’re not self-employed or professional yet and writing definitely isn’t bringing in the big bucks, but you’d like it to some day, and you’re working right now on making that a reality. This post is for you, because the best time to practice getting into a healthy writing habit and holding yourself accountable to writing for that future where it’s your full time gig is now—before it’s essential to do so.
1. It will never be easy
It’s easy to think that maintaining a schedule or habit for writing would be easy if only it was your full-time gig and all you needed to do. While it might be easier than trying to cram in writing between classes or jobs, it will never be easy. You’re always going to have multiple things going on, there’s always going to be something you could be or need to be doing other than writing. Developing good habits right now, when it is really hard, is going to set you up far better than just waiting for it to get easy before you fully commit to it.
2. Set a schedule that actually works for you
I did a whole post on making a writing schedule you can actually manage and maintain here:
But the TL;DR is that in order to keep to a schedule, you have to make sure it’s attainable. Fit when you write around your other life schedule. For example, if you’re really not a morning person, planning on waking up at 5am every morning to write for a couple hours is probably not something you’ll be able to maintain. But setting aside an hour before bed may be more manageable for you.
3. Form a habit
To train your brain to make your writing schedule a habit you’ll actually stick to, you should make it into a routine. Similar to how you have a bedtime routine that sets you up to feel sleepy at night, a routine that sets you up for writing will make it harder to turn away from your manuscript, and help inspire a productive writing block.
You can create a writing playlist with songs that inspire your project you listen to whenever you begin writing, make a tea or other drink to sip on while you write, grab a snack, share your schedule with a writing buddy and write together, put together a document of inspiring quotes, photos, or other muses you can read, or really anything that gets you into the writing mood. By following this routine every time you set up to write, you’ll train your brain to get into a mindset that will make it easier to stick to your writing block.
4. Reward yourself
Brains love doing things for a reward. Maybe after a productive writing block you can spend some time doing something else you love, like watching an episode of your favourite show, lighting a candle, taking a bath, or having a glass of wine, I don’t know, anything that would give your brain the happy juice in response to your good work.
5. Set deadlines and goals
Writing consistently is basically the majority of the battle. I don’t typically worry about word count, but I do know that it can be helpful for others to set wordcount goals and deadlines to ensure productivity. If that sounds like you, make sure your goals are actionable while also being attainable. “Finish novel” isn’t a great goal, but “write 2000 words per week for three months” could be helpful if you know that 2000 words is attainable for you.
Same as before, you can also set rewards for when you reach your goals. I have a big tattoo upcoming if I complete my goal for the year.
The last tip I have for this point is to try to find an accountabili-buddy to hold you to your goals and deadlines if you think that would be helpful for you. As a professional writer, you may be held accountable by an editor or agent, so practicing through asking a buddy to help you set deadlines and deliverables will help prepare you for writing towards a date.
The TL;DR is find out what works for you and practice doing it consistently! Anything else I missed?
I say this in the kindest way possible, but I think this style of prose is more appropriate for a personal account rather than an update account. I have no idea who's being talked about half the time. 🥲
I have a CRYSTAL CLEAR vision of postcanon chillaios political marriage fic where dozens of suitors are vying for Laios's slightly sticky hand & he is. oblivious. Which almost causes a major diplomatic incident. Someone (Kabru) tries to delicately explain that he should probably take a spouse already and Laios is like. Oh cool. Chilchuck? Wanna get married? And Chilchuck who had resigned to let the weird Thing he had for his old coworker die quietly has to fucking deal with THIS now.
Criticism can be hard to take, but it can also be a great avenue for learning and growing. Learn more about how to use criticism to develop your skills and grow your business.
Handling criticism is challenging no matter the situation, but it can be especially difficult when coming from a client. Dealing with feedback and suggestions from clients can be viewed as a great opportunity to grow and improve.
Growing through Criticism
Criticism helps uncover blind spots. Habits become deeply ingrained over time and are often hard to change. An outside perspective shows…
As a Gévaudan Lycan, June’s design is supposed to give off an unknowable and melancholy energy.
Gévaudan Lycans are mimics, and their emotions alter their form, especially if they have little to no control of themselves when they shift.
The way June was changed into a lycan and her experience during first shift were extremely traumatic, and over time, her lycan form reflected her feelings of loss and self-loathing. She fronts as this charming and confident woman, while holding back her deeper emotions that eventually leached into the form that reflects her true self.
Fear, sadness, loss, and rage all mixed into this one entity she cannot control. Once a month, she's forced into facing all of those emotions, reliving that trauma again and again for nearly 30 years.
Non-ADHD and non-autistic disabled people whose only idea of ADHD and autistic people is shaped by media depictions of a nerdy white boy or a quirky goth girl with low support needs: "Yeah ADHD and autism are destigmatized and we should ignore people with ADHD and autism in favor of real disabilities. I am very smart and progressive."
Lateral prejudice towards other disabled people will get us nowhere.
