>> 3. Previous attendee at IGF at a global or regional level.

>> We recommend the following 10 names as the new representatives for civil

>> 1. Sunil Abraham (India)
>> 2. Renata Avila (Guatemala)
>> 3. Oh Byoungil (South Korea)
>> 4. John Dada (Nigeria)

>> 6. Stuart Hamilton (United Kingdom)
>> 7. Lea Kaspar (Croatia).
>> 8. Jak SM Kee (Malaysia).
>> 9. Ephraim Percy Kenyanito (Kenya)
>> 10. Virginia Paque (Venezuela)
>> We also considered the remaining representatives whose three year terms have
>> not expired, and we conclude that the only civil society person whose term
>> has not expired is Fatima Cambronero (Argentina), We consider Fatima to be an
>> excellent representative, and have no hesitation in supporting the
>> continuation of her term of engagement. Accordingly, we also endorse the
>> continued involvement of Fatima Cambronero (Argentina) as the only remaining
>> civil society representative carried forward to 2015 MAG. In doing so we note
>> that there are no other continuing members of MAG who are civil society
>> representatives.
>> In addition to the above names, the CSCG has considered a wide range of very

>> recommendations. We are very thankful for all the applicants, despite their
>> making our job much harder, and will advise the Secretariat that, should IGF
