Biografi/ Biography :
Chong Shin berkelulusan Sarjana muda dalam bidang Psikologi dan Linguistik; Sarjana dan Doktor Falsafah dalam bidang linguistik (kesemuanya di UKM). Bidang kepakaran beliau ialah dialektologi dan sosiolinguistik dengan berfokus kepada wilayah Borneo (iaitu Sarawak, Kalimantan Timur dan Barat). Selain itu, beliau juga terlibat dengan penelitian bahasa di Semenanjung dan Indonesia Timur. Sejak 2000, iaitu ketika bertugas sebagai Pembantu Penyelidik hingga sebagai seorang Felo Penyelidik di ATMA, beliau telah melaksanakan berbagai projek kajian linguistik di kawasan-kawasan ini. Antara dialek yang dikaji termasuklah bahasa Suhaid, kelompok dialek Melayu Borneo Barat, Penan, Bidayuhik, Tamanik dan banyak lagi. Antara teori berkaitan bidang dialektologi yang pernah dikemukakan oleh beliau ialah teori “Bahasa Iban sebagai sejenis bahasa Koine di Sarawak”. Dalam bidang sosiolinguistik, sedar akan bahasa minoriti peribumi tempatan kian terancam kerana faktor modernisasi dan urbanisasi, beliau mula tertumpu kepada penelitian yang bertujuan mengenalpasti tahap kelangsungan bahasa dan dialek minoriti. Kesemua hasil kajian di lapangan ini telah diterbitkan baik dalam bentuk makalah ilmiah mahupun buku. Memandangkan di Alam Melayu terdapat bahasa minoriti yang memang sudah hampir pupus, beliau mula berfokus kepada usaha revitalisasi bahasa. Dalam hal ini, sebuah projek antarabangsa dari Toyota Foundation telah diperoleh dan dilaksanakan ke atas bahasa Melanau di Mukah (Sarawak), bahasa Desa (Sintang, Kalimantan Barat) dan bahasa Sepa (Maluku, Indonesia Timur). Selain berkecimpung dalam bidang penyelidikan ilmiah, beliau juga agak lama menjawat jawatan sebagai Ketua Jaminan Kualiti di ATMA, dari 2008 hingga 2021 dan kerap menyumbang khidmat sebagai juru audit dalaman UKM, penilai luar program pengajian dan juruaudit akreditasi MQA (COPPA).
Chong Shin holds a Bachelor`s degree in Psychology and Linguistics, a Master`s degree, and a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Linguistics (all from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia - UKM). His areas of expertise are dialectology and sociolinguistics, with a focus on the Borneo region (specifically Sarawak, East Kalimantan, and West Kalimantan). Additionally, he is involved in language documentation projects across Peninsular Malaysia and Eastern Indonesia. Since 2000 - beginning as a Research Assistant and currently serving as a Research Fellow at ATMA (Institute of the Malay World and Civilization) - he has conducted numerous linguistic research projects in these regions. Among the dialects he has studied are Suhaid, Western Borneo Malay dialect groups, Penan, Bidayuhic, Tamanic, and many others. One of his notable contributions to dialectology is the theory of "Iban as a Koine Language in Sarawak." In sociolinguistics, recognizing that indigenous minority languages are increasingly threatened by modernization and urbanization, he has focused on research aimed at assessing the vitality levels of minority languages and dialects. All findings from these field studies have been published as academic papers and books. Given that several minority languages in the Malay Archipelago are nearing extinction, he has shifted focus to language revitalization efforts. In this regard, he secured and implemented an international project funded by the Toyota Foundation, targeting the Melanau language in Mukah (Sarawak), the Desa language in Sintang (West Kalimantan), and the Sepa language in Maluku (Eastern Indonesia). Beyond academic research, he served as Head of Quality Assurance at ATMA from 2008 to 2021 and frequently contributes as an internal auditor for UKM, an external academic program evaluator, and an accreditation auditor for MQA (COPPA).
