Yulian Wang, the team leader of the Chinese L10n team, had this to say about the team's work:
"ProZ.com is a wonderful platform for language service professionals. Localizing it into Chinese may help native Chinese speakers understand it better, thus may expand their potential client resources. I am glad to be a part of the dedicated Chinese localization team."
