Hello there, I am Toan – one of the newest additions to the Localization Project Managers (LPM) team in Hansem Vietnam. Unlike my colleagues, I am the only one with a technical background – a total “tech nerd”. I am a graduate engineer from Da Nang University…
When it comes to translation services, there has long been an argument over whether Machine Translation can replace (or outsmart) Manual (human) Translation someday.
