To this end, it had consistently emphasized the linguistic rights of hearing-impaired people through multiple channels, including an emergency chairperson statement in February to promote hearing-impaired people's right to language, education, and of access to information; recommendation in April to three major broadcasting companies to provide sign language interpretation during their prime time news; and opinion expressed in September on the need to provide sign language interpretation for the televised announcements of the Blue House to guarantee the right of access to information for hearing-impaired people. These efforts helped raise public interest and change public perception of sign language as an official language.
