Dear Randy,

by 'members' do you mean existing members of apnic?  if so, i am in a
small economy with only two apnic members.  can we meet for tea and
decide that we're an nir?

I do mean existing members of APNIC in that country. For the benefit of your question, in the first version of my proposal I have mentioned a minimum members criteria for recognizing NIR in a country. However, since the proposal had too many components, I have omitted the same. Preferred situation would be that there are certain minimum members under each category in that country before applying for NIR.

majority of what?  the apnic members in the economy?  but above you said
it had to be unanimous.

Yes, APNIC members in that economy. "Majority" refers to majority of votes being polled towards "Yes" which should define that the members in that economy are agreeing to that particular agency to be the NIR in that economy.

hi kusumba,

  

1) If there is an unanimous consensus amongst the members within a
country that a specific agency is forming an NIR, I guess even if voting
process has to still go thru, the agency would get required consensus in
any case.

2) If the agency can campaign for their NIR proposal within that country
and reach majority, that situation also will not be a problem.

apologies, but i am still confused.  and if i can not see it simply,
it's hard to help explain it to the apnic policy community.
