Hello all, How is everything going? This is Pavan Budhrani, Secretariat of APRALO and wanted to contact you about several APRALO issues. The first one was about the APRALO Brochure. Recently we have agreed to do one APRALO brochure, in that, one page will be about the testimonials from ALS’es around the Asia Pacific region. Thus, we would like all ALS’es if you would be kind enough to send us a picture of yourself and some lines about your ALS, and also why it is worthwhile to participate in APRALO. It would be great exposure because we plan to distribute these out during ICANN meetings, other external meetings and even online. This is an example of the brochure done by the Latin America region. http://www.atlarge.icann.org/announcements/announcement-01mar10-2-en.htm The Second part is that we are now in process of doing a global ALS Survey along with other regional officers and the ALAC. It is a simple form with some multiple choice questions. The main areas to be covered there are about your relationship with the ccTLD in your region and also some other housekeeping items like which communication channel works better and so on. This would be useful information for us to engage more often. There would be in total 3 parts to the survey and the links will be sent across next week. Really look forward to your prompt reply. Please reply back to me and CC the chair and vice chair who are CC-ed in this email, thanks again Pavan Budhrani Communications Manager, DotAsia Organisation
