The National Translation Committee (NTC) was formed by the Ministry of Communications and Information (MCI) on 1 March 2014, to oversee short-term and long-term plans to enhance whole-of-government translation capabilities and see to improvements across the industry. It is a collaborative effort involving the public, private and people sectors to address translation-related issues.
The NTC is made up of members from the media, academia, the translation industry, as well as government representatives. The committee is chaired by Mr Tan Kiat How, Minister of State for Ministry of Communications and Information, and Ministry of National Development.
The NTC also works alongside three Resource Panels (RP), namely the Chinese RP, Malay RP and Tamil RP. The resource panels will provide expert advice on specific translation problems.
