[governance] Let's meet in Bali!

[Qusai AlShatti]

Dear All:
We look forward to have an IGC caucus meeting in Bali. This is the only
opportunity for us to see each other in person. I hope it will not take
place at end of the last day since I (like many of my colleagues ) will be
leaving the same day.

Best Regards,
 Qusai AlShatti
