Re: [APAC-Discuss] [At-Large] ICANN68 to be a virtual meeting
by Suhaidi Hassan April 10, 2020

April 10, 2020

Dear Maureen and all, On behalf of the ICANN68 host committee, I respect and understand this decision, although (and, honestly) it's a difficult one for us to accept. We understand the decision was ultimately made that prioritises the health and safety of our ICANN community, the international guests travelling to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and, most importantly, mitigates the risk of spreading the Covid-19. Our sympathies at this time are with those affected by Covid-19 all around the world. We hope ICANN would consider Kuala Lumpur again as host of ICANN meeting in the future. Thank you, Kind regards, Suhaidi Hassan ISOC Malaysia Chapter
