'This special issue of Asiatic, themed Digital Trends in Language and Literature : Asia and the 21st century, was born in the context of International Conference on Language and Literature 2020 (ICLL 2020) organised at International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM)on 15-17January 2020. The conference was a collaboration between IIUM and Western Sydney University (WSU), Australia, and was also supported by Jinan University, Guangzhou, China. The event attracted a total of one hundred regular paper submissions, focusing on numerous contemporary and emerging topics related to language and literary digitalisation in Asia. The conference was held, fortunately, just before the COVID-19 pandemic struck the world. From that time until the publication of this issue, the world has undergone a sweeping digital transformation in the way people and institutions interact and operate in their daily lives. In a way, the theme of the conference in January 2020 serves as a harbinger of the shift to online and digital platforms, which are becoming progressively normalised in the wake of the COVID-19 viral attack worldwide.'
