> Dear All IGC Members, Good morning from Pakistan,

> election of IGC Coordinator, even she had support from Ms Ginger and her
> name was also announced as candidate list.

> I hereby accept this nomination and I will try my best to meet your
> expectations, if I am elected.
>
> DISCLOSURE:
> Although I believe that there is no limitation under the IGC CS Charter as
> a requisite criterion for the candidate of coordinator election to disclose
> his/her funding relationship, however, for transparency purpose, I would
> like disclose that I have never obtained any kind of local or foreign
> funding for my initiatives which includes Linguistic Internet Council, Urdu
> Internet Society, Internet Governance Forum of Pakistan, and to lead
> working groups of Websphere User Group, Tivoli User Group, Rational User
> Group, Technology Foresight Project of ICT for Sustainable Development
> (National & Provincial Committees), organizing BIRDS Pakistan as a think
> tank for innovative research, Activities related to MDG Forum 2010,
> Promoting Information Security Professionals of Pakistan, Development of

> Workshop at APrIGF 2003 at Seoul. I have no funding source or do not charge
> any membership fee.
>
> However, I got ICANN’s fellowship to attend ICANN’s 36th Seoul Meeting in
> 2009 which mechanism is obvious for most of the IGC members. I also have
> avail support from International Islamic University, Islamabad to host IGF
> remote hubs in 2011 & 2012. Similarly I also have avail support from
> APrIGF to host IGF-PAK workshop at APrIGF 2003 at Seoul.

> Dear IGC members,
> I would like to nominate Imran Ahmed Shah for the position as
> Co-cordinator. I feel very honoured that Ginger should have nominated me,
> and I am very grateful to all those who have given me their support, but I
