[governance] ICC selects the civil society invitees to High Level Leaders Meeting

[Suresh Ramasubramanian]

That is a considerable misstatement of what ISOC has been doing for the last several years though i guess you have a different perception of this issue. 

Anyway as Chaitanya says the organizers don't rule out other participation and there is no decision making anywhere on the agenda as far as i can see.

If you thought it was bad enough when ISOC decided that the "technical and academic communities" really only meant "technical community", then you're going to love this.

Look at Sardjoeni Moedjiono's statement to the Virtual MAG meeting on Tuesday about the planned High Level Leaders Meeting (HLLM) in Bali, in which he says:

> For the time being, I have received already the list of name, position, organization, contact number, and location/email address of around 40 CEOs of various Internet Business/Civil Society organizations to joint the HLLM, proposed and sent by ICC Basis officials (Ms. Ayesha Hassan and her staffs).


Yes, the International Chamber of Commerce will be selecting the civil society organisations to join the HLLM.  I can only assume that next year, the organisers will be asking the Civil Society Internet Governance Caucus to select the members of the private sector to be invited to the next high level meeting.
