Dear all,
First, I would like to congratulate Holly on continuing her APRALO chairship. Second, as current vice chair of APRALO filling her previous remaining term, let me share my thoughts on why I stand for this after my six month test drive.
My test drive with APRALO has not been smooth one but quite positive at the end. Still learning the norms and culture here cultivated for the last ten years.
I, on the other hand, have been associated with civil society working on Internet Governance issues, which I believe can be helpful to APRALO. Starting with NCDNHC/DNSO council member (1999~2002), I have travelled with various constituencies in ICANN including from ccTLD constituency to ccNSO (FYI. My first professional job in this community was APTLD secretariat), UN WSIS CS Internet Governance Caucus (2003~ ), UN IGF MAG (2008~2012), and chair of Local program committee of 2013 APrIGF in Korea (2013).
I also serve on the various local committees related with ISOC-KR
rejuvenation coordinator, 2013 WTPF preparatory one, 2013 Cyber Space Conference planning one, and 2014 ITU plennipotentiary meeting planning etc.
Based on my IG experiences and responsibilites at Korea Internet
Governance community, I will be happy to bridge APRALO and Korea Internet community down the road including the upcoming APrIGF in Korea.
I understand we have excellent vice chair candidates for this round,
which is quite exciting development itself for APRALO. Taking this opportunity, let me also support their candidature.
Hope we can have a great journey with all together!
