日前，我校名誉教授、泰国诗琳通公主给我校发来校庆贺信。贺信译文和和英文全文如下：

尊敬的崔希亮教授：

欣悉北京语言大学将在今年9月举行建校50周年校庆。借此机会，我谨对北京语言大学所取得的成绩和进步表示祝贺。

我由衷地感谢您于2012年5月17日发来的9月校庆邀请函。我希望能出席此次盛会，但是由于日程的安排，十分遗憾不能出席此次活动。

自1962年建校以来，北京语言大学向世界推广汉语和中国文化，在国际上享有盛誉。由于在世界传播中国人民的知识和智慧所起的重要作用，促进各国人民的理解和友谊，建设和平与和谐共存的世界，学校获得了“小联合国”的美誉。

值得高兴的是北京语言大学与我国许多大学在教育领域有很多合作，例如法政大学、易三仓大学和易三仓商业学院等。这类合作促进了泰国教育的发展，同时，也必将进一步加强中泰两国自古至今的友好关系。我坚信，中泰友谊将会在未来继续发展与长存。

再次衷心感谢您对我的热情邀请。尽管我无法出席此次校庆活动，我愿意向北京语言大学和全体教职员工表达我最诚挚的祝福，祝事业繁荣兴旺、蒸蒸日上。

您诚挚的，

诗琳通公主

Dear Prof. Cui Xiliang,

It gives me the great pleasure to learn that BLCU is going to celebrate its 50th anniversary in this coming September. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate BLCU on its great success and progress.

I also thank you sincerely for your thoughtful invitation extended to me in your letter of May 17, 2012 to participate in the celebration to be held in September. Although I would like very much to be part of this auspicious occasion, I greatly regret that I cannot possibly accept to come because of my tight schedule.

Since its establishment in l962, BLCU has accumulated its reputation for promoting the Chinese language and cultural heritage to the world until now it is known worldwide. The institute has earned the epithet “Little United Nations" for its important role in disseminating the knowledge and wisdom of the Chinese people internationally which create good understanding and friendship among the peoples of the world, leading to the peaceful and harmonious co-existence.

I am very much pleased that we have some educational cooperation between our universities, for example, BLCU and Thammasat, Assumption universities and Assumption Commercial College. This sort of collaboration helps enhance the progress of the education in Thailand. Moreover, it certainly plays a part in strengthening the cordial relationship our two countries have enjoyed since the ancient time down to the present day. Such friendly ties, I believe, will be long-lived and continue far on the path to the future.

Prof. Xiliang, I truly appreciate your kind consideration towards me. Although I am unable to be present at the celebration, I would like to offer BLCU and its faculty my best wishes for their ceaseless prosperity and advance in years to come.

Sincerely,

Sirindhorn

(Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn)
