The 1st International Conference on Modern Languages and Applied Linguistics (ICMAL) 2021 was organised on 14 and 15 September 2021 by Akademi Pengajian Bahasa (APB), Univer- siti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Cawangan Pulau Pinang. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, this is the first ICMAL organised virtually via Microsoft Team. The theme of the conference was “Revolutionising Language Education in the New Norm”. ICMAL was previously known as the Malaysian International Conference on Academic Strategies in English Language Teaching (MyCASELT) and International Conference on Issues in Language Teaching and Learning among Non-Native Speakers (ILANNS). The co-organisers of ICMAL 2021 were Universitas Tanjungpura, Indonesia and Goethe University of Frankfurt, Germany. The previous five MyCASELT, organised by APB, UITM Shah Alam, were successfully carried out in 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012, and 2017. Subsequently, UiTM Shah Alam decided to provide equal opportunity to other branch campuses to organise the conference via turn-taking. Thus, in 2019, the 6th MyCASELT was organised for the first time by the APB branch campus; UiTM Cawangan Sabah. Meanwhile, the past four ILANNS were organised in 2005, 2009, 2014, and 2018 respectively.
