</span></div><br>Dear Vlada,<br><br><br>While
as a general policy I do not like commenting on rumours, I am very
aware that there have been some rumours flying around that the IGF in
Bali has been cancelled.<br><br>However, neither the IGF Secretariat nor
UNDESA in New York have received any official notification of such.
We are in contact with the Indonesian authorities discussing all the
aspects related to hosting 2013, and we will let you know as soon as any
significant development occurs.<br><br><br>Best regards,<br><br>Chengetai <br clear="all"><div>______________________<br>Mwendwa Kivuva<br><a href="http://twitter.com/lordmwesh" target="_blank">twitter.com/lordmwesh</a><br>
