7. International standardization policies
Starting from the local names policy:
| 1) the source country decides on a conversion system from one script to another, or | the source country might not have the means to produce a standard |
| 2) the receiver country decides, or | there are more than 160 receiver countries and we do not want 160 versions of each geographical name |
| 3) both source country and receiver countries try to work out one joint standard for each writing system | cooperation of source country and receiver countries might work out best |
