Dear Izumi,<br><br>I suggest to use keep instead of improve at the end of the intervention. To say otherwise, will suggest there has been already and undue influence, which nobody should say, unless proof can be provided.<br>

Here is my crude draft statement/comment for tomorrow's CSTD consultation<br>
meeting, in addition to the questionnaire already submitted, and I plan to<br>
distribute the copies there.<br>
<br>
Below is sort of sketchy draft of points I propose.<br>
<br>
----<br>
As the addition to the answer to the questionnaire:<br>
<br>
IGC would like to emphasize the importance of keeping and enhancing<br>
the secretariat functions of the past five years as follows:<br>
<br>
Keep the Multi-stakeholder approach in line with Tunis agenda for all<br>
exercises of IGF,<br>
- In the organizing of the IGF meeting, MAG and Consultation meetings,<br>
- pay attention to the balance of all stakeholders<br>
<br>
Keep the open and inclusive approach:<br>
- Receive and encourage the participation from all stakeholders from<br>
all different<br>
parts of the world, gender balance, youth, giving no privileges to<br>
any particular group or stakeholders.<br>
<br>
- Give equal weight to all stakeholders (when making operational<br>
decisions) – governments, private sector,<br>
civil society, technical and academic communities, and IGOs.<br>
<br>
Keep all meetings open and transparent – full use of webcast, audio,<br>
video and transcripts<br>
and other online tools in IGF meeting as well as all consultation<br>
and MAG meetings.<br>
<br>
Keep (enhance?) its independence from the influence of financial donors.<br>
<br>
Please add your comments and suggestions,<br>
<br>
