*Dear Jeremy Malcolm,*

Please accept our best compliments on behalf of the Bangladesh NGOs Network
for Radio and Communication (BNNRC) Secretariat.



BNNRC actively works to improve recognition of the community electronic
media sector [Community Radio | Community TV | Community Film] & its work
in and involvement with the communities it seeks to serve. BNNRC represent
the community electronic media sector to Government, Industry, Regulatory
Bodies, Media, Academia and Development Partners from 2000. The BNNRC
provides leadership and support for rural initiators to facilitate
independent electronic community broadcasting services and to build and
strengthen rural communities.



BNNRC is in Special Consultative Status with the Economic and Social
Council of the United Nations & accredited with UN World Summit on the
Information Society. The BNNRC regularly organizes high profile national
events which showcase new developments in the electronic community media
sector and brings together a diverse audience from the Community,
Voluntary, Public and Private sectors.

In this backdrop, I would like to join the
WIPO Broadcasting Treaty matter.
Than you very much for your nice posting about
WIPO Broadcasting Treaty.

With Solidarity,


*Bazlu*
