APIA Membership and KL meeting
Apologies if you receive several posting of this mesage.
This is to invite you to join the Asia & Pacific Internet Association,
which was formed on the 1st May 1997.
APIA is an industry trade association for Internet-related service providers.
APIA was formed to discuss regional issues that other Internet bodies do not
cover, such as bilateral agreements and settlements, the regional backbone,
roaming, quality of service, electronic commerce standards, certification
authority and regulatory matters i.e. many of the industry issues that a
single provider cannot handle. It will also collect useful industry statistics
for its members and make regulatory and other industry databases available to
members. Since its founding, APIA has forged ties with the APNIC, CIX, ISOC, ITU,
WTO, PECC and APEC. APIA hopes to be a channel for a voice for the industry in
this region.
For more information regarding APIA and APIA membership, please check the APIA website
at http://www.apia.org. Interested and want an application form, please send e-mail to
apia-inquiry at apia dot org or laina at getit dot org
PLEASE NOTE that founding member applications will close on the 28th June 1997.
PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT there will be a lunch reception at the Legend Hotel on the
24th June at 12noon on the 9th floor of the Legend Hotel followed by an open general
meeting at 2-3.30pm. After the coffee break at 4.15 there will be a members only
meeting to discuss the strategic plan and adminsitrative matters.
Please support this effort to give the Internet industry in this region a voice and a
provide a useful resource for industry.
