The only way I know to deal with this issue is through the A2A Friends feature. Try to make friends with successful SFI affiliates from other countries. Then work out a partnership with them. Perhaps they can communicate with your affiliates on your behalf.
When possible, reassign that affiliate to someone who can speak your language and theirs. That way you can effectively notify your affiliate that they are receiving a new team member.
