Challenges in Speaking English in ASEAN

Abstract

Studies reveal that learning English by non-native individuals within any country across the globe increases the nature of problem-solving criteria adopted worldwide. People tend to adopt and embrace a new trajectory that can enhance efficiency in solving the problems that the designated group might face. Immigrants tend to meet a lot of issues within the nation. The leading cause of these problems is usually a result of the language barrier, which can be easily breached by introducing the English language within the region of ASEAN (Yi & Jang 2020). Proficiency in the language creates an atmosphere that is conducive for the aspect of solving the existing problems within the environment. The nature of problem-solving is sophisticated and crucial for the operations exhibited within ASEAN. This paper outlines the challenges faced by ASEANic people when speaking English.
