Linguistic composition Language patterns in Southeast Asia are highly complex and are rooted in four major language families: Sino-Tibetan, Tai, Austro-Asiatic, and Austronesian (Malayo-Polynesian). Languages derived from the Sino-Tibetan group are found largely in Myanmar, while forms of the Tai group are spoken in Thailand and Laos. Austro-Asiatic languages are spoken in Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam. The languages of Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines are rooted in an Austronesian and Polynesian stock. Despite this broad generalization, it must be noted that innumerable separate languages as well as dialects are used in the region. This linguistic diversity is especially conspicuous in fragmented areas such as the Philippines and Indonesia and in highland and remote areas on the mainland, and it has been a retarding factor in national integration and development. Notable in this regard is Myanmar. Dominant languages do exist in most of the nations. Burmese and Thai are spoken by large groups of people in Myanmar and Thailand, respectively. Similarly, Khmer is the primary language in Cambodia, as is Vietnamese in Vietnam. Within the Philippines, Pilipino (Filipino) and English are the official languages, but Tagalog and Visayan also are important. Malay and Indonesian are, respectively, the official languages of Malaysia and Indonesia; these languages are quite similar and are mutually intelligible. Indonesian is a good example of a true national language and is spoken widely across the archipelago. Thus, unlike in Myanmar, language actually has been a unifying element in the country. Numerous languages also have been introduced into the region by immigrant populations. Perhaps most significant are the variety of dialects spoken by the Chinese communities in many Southeast Asian countries. The most commonly used are Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka, and Teochew, reflecting the southern Chinese coastal origins of many of the immigrants. The largest concentration of Chinese speakers is in Singapore, where they constitute the majority population. Concentrations of ethnic Chinese also live in most of the larger urban areas of the region. Indian immigrants also are numerous and are associated with the economic development of several Southeast Asian nations. Their role as labourers on the rubber plantations of Malaysia is well known, and Tamil and Hindi speakers form significant minorities in the country. Indian communities also are scattered throughout the region and are especially conspicuous in Singapore and Myanmar.
