Abstract To transfer her knowledge base to the rest of the world, China, like many other non-English-speaking countries, has been publishing academic journals in English or printing abstracts in English for articles written in Chinese, hence people鈥?great concern about the editors鈥?English language proficiency. This paper reports on the findings of four projects commissioned by GAPP and offers reasons for the deficiency of English language capacity of Chinese editors of academic journals through a survey of the qualification of 518 English editors for 469 Chinese academic journals, and proposes suggestions to solve the problems identified.
