All Partnership with -OECD, with the US, with EU - are fine.

My question however is specific

What is the problem with the IGC asking for a global institutional 
framework for developing Internet related public policies that includes 
all countries, and their stakeholders, of a similar kind that that OECD/ 
CoE already has?

This question is especially to seen in the context of the fact that IGC 
members have enthusiastically supported and engaged with the mentioned 
OECD framework.

Why is the need of participation of developing countries, with their all 
stakeholders, not considered relevant or important. That is the simple 
thing that I am seeking with my EC related proposal.
