[governance] IGF closing ceremony speech

[Mehrzad.azghandi]

Dear Milton, 

Thanks for sharing. I was really excited to hear the idea, which I believe will open new sights to the future of Internet society and Internet architecture. 
One of the main feature of globalization is the acceptance of diversity, as it is addressed by MS model in IGF discussions. So I think that Michael's and Mawaki's notes which point out obstacles for this idea, namely, the power, may lead us to a complementary idea, probably the formation of various and diverse cyber colonies or cyber civilizations( let me name them CCs!) ,who will be in dealing with each other; trying to be balanced and enriching their common capabilities; for instance by establishing their own cyber laws and cyber security systems, etc. 
Empowered CCs with common interests and common concerns, who desire to dominate their own Internet environment, based on to their culture, profession, religion, etc, and despite of their geographical location and nationalities may be the solution for the future of Cyberspace independency respecting the diversity. 
Any way, I believe you have started the brainstorm very well, and there are long way to reach an executable recipe. 

Too many dreamers should be joined for this ;)

Best regards
Mehrzad
