Following the earthquake in central Myanmar, the Chinese Embassy in Myanmar announced that it has been using a Chinese-Myanmar-English translation system built on the DeepSeek platform to support relief efforts.
This system was developed in just seven hours by a language service team formed by the Secretariat of the National Language Service Corps of China and Beijing Language and Culture University. So far, more than 700 people in Myanmar have used the platform to facilitate communication during the emergency.
The National Language Service Corps of China is a public-service alliance established under the guidance of institutions such as the Ministry of Education, the National Language Commission, and the Ministry of Emergency Management. Its mission is to provide language support in public emergencies and other key national tasks, helping to overcome communication barriers.
The use of this language technology in international disaster relief highlights the unique value of language services in contributing to the building of a community with a shared future for humanity.
