[governance] Bangladesh Govt blocks YouTube

[Kabani]

Dear All,

Firstly, thank to my friends, Faisal, Imran and other from different part
of the world to hight this important issues of Internet Governance. Since
most of us are already  busy with Civil Society and Govt to find a way out
of this mess in our countries, created by the Video on Youtube.

Submitted here is requested that we theIGC form a Committee that will
develop a draft statement and will share with the community and will make
it final and disseminate will all the stakeholders, Corp, and Govt,
including youtube, FB, UN, Etc.

This is a turning point in the History of Man kind that a mass media
(internet) is used to create a situation that is creating conflicts among
regions, culture, nations. It is reported now that several people are
killed, loss of public and private, and Strike and street protest have
started in many countries, due to this video upload, These type of Videos
if not stop now will lead to extremism and then Wars in the history of
Mankind. Facts are available in history in Past.

Please we the IGC community of multi culture and multistakeholder  must
take note of this event of publication of video, and try to keep the
internet open and free to everyone. A strong statement of IGC is must.



Sincerely

Asif Kabani
