Whereas your latest call is for individual organisations to put themselves forward to do so. Hence why Ian may have been taken a bit by surprise.<br><br>It is not impossible to conceive that this is the right approach, because that is how CSISAC came together in pretty short order, from the organisations that signed the Seoul Declaration. But different from the approach taken so far, and probably needs more discussion first. There's no harm in that discussion taking place here, but to manage expectations, it might have been premature to call for individual organisations to join?<br><br>Just my thoughts... <o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>-- <o:p></o:p></p><p><b><span style='font-size:9.0pt'>Dr Jeremy Malcolm<br>Senior Policy Officer<br>Consumers International | the global campaigning voice for consumers</span></b><span style='font-size:9.0pt'><br>Office for Asia-Pacific and the Middle East<br>Lot 5-1 Wisma WIM, 7 Jalan Abang Haji Openg, TTDI, 60000 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia<br>Tel: +60 3 7726 1599<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-size:9.0pt'>Explore our new Resource Zone - the global consumer movement knowledge hub | <a href="http://www.consumersinternational.org/news-and-media/resource-zone">http://www.consumersinternational.org/news-and-media/resource-zone</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-size:9.0pt'>@Consumers_Int | <a href="http://www.consumersinternational.org">www.consumersinternational.org</a> | <a href="http://www.facebook.com/consumersinternational">www.facebook.com/consumersinternational</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-size:8.0pt;color:#999999'>Read our <a href="http://www.consumersinternational.org/email-confidentiality" target="_blank">email confidentiality notice</a>.
