In recent years, ASEAN English accent has increasingly attracted people’s attention thanks to the closer communications and exchanges in the fields of politics, economy, culture and education between China and ASEAN countries.

By analyzing ASEAN English phonetic varieties, the report is intended to find out effective ways to overcome interpreting obstacles posed by the accent.At last, the report comes to conclusions as follows:First, sufficient preparation is crucial to deal with complex and changing situation in interpreting process. Second, interpreter’s attitude is subject to be neutral and is not supposed to involve personal quotient because of being employed by one party.
