“…Another finding is that the tourism signposts (n = 55), which were placed by an official agency in 2010, were in four languages: Chinese (on top), followed by Portuguese, English and Japanese, the latter because of the importance of Japanese tourists as a target group. Yan (2019) confirmed that Portuguese evoked authenticity and was used for reasons of heritage tourism. The signs could be rather varied, some were older and had Portuguese on top followed by Chinese, while others had Chinese, Portuguese and English.…”

“…In addition, numerous scholars choose distinct research sites, ranging from cyberspace, rural places, minority area, border cities to metropolis and more. Even though Yan (2019) examines the language choices in the linguistic landscape of Macao's heritage tourism and gaming tourism and Chanda et al (2018) conducts the linguistic landscape at Pabna in Bangladesh, revealing the influence of colonial language in Pabna area, few researchers have focused on the language choices in cultural heritage sites and tourist spots. Different from the scholars listed above, this article tends to explore the LL of cultural heritage sites at Dhaka and the tourism scenic spots at Cox's Bazar in Bangladesh, aiming to investigate the intersection of language practices and ideologies in terms of socio-political, economic, and cultural facets.…”

Language choices in colonized societies are shaped by a combination of local, national, and global forces as well as historical, political, religious and economic factors. This is particularly true in Dhaka and Cox's Bazar. Adopting an ethnography, this study attempts to investigate the intersection of language practices and ideologies by examining the language use and language choices displayed in cultural heritage sites and tourism scenic spots both in public and private multilingual signs. Data are collected through linguistic signs represented at the two places and individual interviews with local people. Findings indicate that multidimensionality marks the linguistic landscape in Bangladesh. The sociopolitical dimension signifies the officially laid-down monolingual Bangla-oriented policies, which accentuate compulsory use of the national language Bangla standing for Bangladeshi nationalism and identity. English as a post-colonial reproducer of linguistic hegemony is presented in various aspects in Bangladesh. The economic dimension is manifested in the prominent use of Chinese as a newly emerging foreign language and the employment of Arabic, which is a symbol of Bangladeshi main religion Islam. The study provides a new context for understanding Bangladesh's multilingual practices and its language planning and management in the context of globalization.

“…Pariwisata menjadi salah satu sektor ekonomi berkontribusi signifikan pada perekonomian global dan menjadi hal yang sering diperdebatkan dan diteliti (Brauer et al, 2019;Perles-Ribes et al, 2017;Ruhanen et al, 2019;Tang & Tan, 2018;Yung & Khoo-Lattimore, 2019). Kajian terkait pariwisata dan linguistik akhir-akhir ini telah banyak diteliti oleh para peneliti, diantaranya Manaliyo (2009) yang mengkaji keterkaitan antara multibahasa dengan aktivitas pariwisata di Cape Town, Arfika Selatan; Wu et al (2019) yang mengkaji kerangka pariwisata berkelanjutan berbasis preferensi linguistik; Pratiwi (2019) menganalisis linguistik dan kepariwisataan di Provinsi Bali, Indonesia; dan Yan (2019) mengkaji pemilihan bahasa wisatawan di destinasi Macao, Hongkong. Pentingnya pemilihan dan penggunaan bahasa pada aktivitas pariwisata menjadi suatu hal yang wajib diimplementasikan oleh pengelola destinasi pariwisata, terutama pengelola daya tarik wisata (Cameron, 2000;Cohen & Cooper, 1986;Duchêne, 2009).…”
