Dear Ashirwad, Your nomination is recorded. Thank you. Kind Regards, Yeşim Sağlam From: Ashirwad Tripathy <ashirwadtripathy(a)gmail.com> Date: 18 April 2025 Friday at 09:21 To: APAC-Discuss <apac-discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org> Cc: ICANN At-Large Staff <staff(a)atlarge.icann.org> Subject: [Ext] 2025 At Large Leadership Call nomination (Justine Chew) Hi colleagues, I would like to nominate Justine Chew for the APRALO ALAC position as she has been very active in APRALO and Atlarge policy work. I have seen her work hard in CPWG and other working groups. I had a chance to work with her closely in the APRALO CIP small team and her hold on policy work and documentation was instrumental in the working group. I am sure her nomination will come a long way for the APAC community.

ALAC Position
by Neli odishvili April 15, 2025

April 15, 2025

Greetings, In response to Charles' email, I’d also note that Shah Zahidur Rahman appears to be a respectful candidate for the ALAC position. With over 15 years in the Internet industry and experience across government, private, and non-profit sectors, he brings a well-rounded perspective to digital governance. His current role as Chief Digital and Innovation Officer, along with his active involvement in ICANN and regional initiatives like APSIG, reflects his ongoing commitment to DNS abuse policy, cybersecurity, data governance, and digital rights. His background suggests he could add valuable insights to the committee. Sincerely, Neli
