cakephp change language on fly

My site is in 2 languages (english and italian)

My SiteMessagesController.php controller code:

public function index() {
    $this->SiteMessage->locale = 'it';
    $this->SiteMessage->recursive = 0;
    $this->set('siteMessages', $this->paginate());
}

Above code shows all messages in italian language from database. If I comment the 1st line of code, then it will show messages in english.

If I go with this in whole site, I have to write $this->SiteMessage->locale = 'it'; line before $this->ModelName->find(); in each action of each controller.

Is there any way to set $locale to 'it' for each model?

If you're asking what I think you're asking, this will do:

Configure::write('Config.language', 'ita');

If you put this somewhere like your AppController::beforeFilter() it should work for the entire app, not individual models or queries. See book on I18n and L10n for more info.
