Press Release Summary: Translation company Lingo24 is pleased to find its online
petition to support Iraqi interpreters contributed to the success of the cause.

Press Release Body:



Lingo24 welcomes the decision of the British government to offer aid and the
possibility to relocate for its Iraqi interpreters and translators who risked their
lives and those of their families working for the British troops.

The initiator of an online petition to support Iraqi translators, Lingo24 managed to
generate awareness and response from inside the translation industry, thus
contributing to the cause of the Iraqi interpreters and translators. Many people in
the industry showed their support to Lingo24's initiative, as well as several
professional forums and translation portals.

"We were so happy and thankful to see our friends and colleagues in the industry
responding to the call and supporting the online petition", says company founder and
managing director Christian Arno. "Let's just hope the resolution will be finalized
properly, offering aid to all the Iraqi interpreters and translators, not just to a
selected few", he adds.

Translation company Lingo24 is pleased to see its efforts contributed to making a
difference and is expressing hope that the resolution will provide assistance to all
the Iraqi interpreters and translators who helped and continue to help the British
troops.
