Call for nominations to the APNIC Executive Council
_______________________________________________________________________


Three positions on the APNIC Executive Council (EC) will be opened for
election at APNIC 29 in Kuala Lumpur on Friday, 5 March 2010. The
Executive Council represents the APNIC Membership and acts in the best
interests of the organization.

The Members whose positions are up for re-election are:

    - Akinori Maemura
    - Che-Hoo Cheng
    - Ma Yan

These three Members were all elected at APNIC 25 in Taipei, Taiwan on
Friday, 29 February 2008.

Nominations are due by the close of business on Wednesday, 17 February
2010 at the latest (17:30 UTC 10, Brisbane time). Nominees do not have
to be representatives of APNIC Members, but only APNIC Members may
nominate and vote for candidates.

Nominations must be made using the online nomination form, which is
available now:

    http://meetings.apnic.net/29/whats-on/elections/nominate

If you are unable to vote online or attend APNIC 29, you can still make
your vote count by appointing a proxy to represent you at the meeting.

For more information on nominations received, proxy registration,
current EC Members, and the role of the EC, please refer to:

Online voting will be available for this election via the MyAPNIC web
site and will open soon after the nomination period closes.

Nominees should note that positions on the APNIC EC are currently
voluntary and that APNIC may not be able to reimburse EC Members all
expenses associated with EC duties. Where possible, however, APNIC will
reimburse actual expenses for attendance at APNIC meetings, providing
that these fall within budget and cash flow constraints. If you have
any questions, please contact the APNIC Secretariat at:
