Dear David, The big brand was even
ENRON-lop sided culture/norms give lop sided results. Push to the whistle
blewers is nothing new, my reference to OLYMPICS is in the context of RESPECT. 1.
I have explained Electoral College/body in my
last mail. 2.
Yes EC members are to represent themselves but
why don’t we research that how come with 30 members support few get
elected whereas despite 60 members support one is not elected. Kindly refer the
contexts. 3.
We have started a debate, policy wud follow. My ENRON example shall
clarify that it’s better to correct things on time than to wait for
enron. I have not referred to ITU this time. J Regards and best wishes, Naresh Ajwani From: David

you mean by "electoral college".
1. When we have proportionate voting strengths to
the size of our members why can’t we have proportionate representation? Because, as has been pointed
out, the EC members (are supposed to) represent themselves, not their
organization, their country, their language, etc. If you believe they are
not representing themselves and are, instead, representing some specific
subset, then that would suggest the need of a recall, not necessarily of
restructuring representation.
Today
world’s biggest brand is the 5 circles of Olympics. I thought the world's biggest
brand was Walmart.
Never
Mind, If we can have NRO NC election on single vote per member basis, why
can’t we have the same for the EC election? As I understand it, NRO NC
members each represent their RIR.
1. When there is a fixed term for the ICANN
Director, why can’t we have the fixed term for the EC in APNIC? I would imagine if the APNIC
community agrees this is a good thing, you can. However, it isn't clear
to me what problem you're solving with term limits and there are definitely
non-trivial implications of term limits. Have you submitted a policy
proposal to impose term limits?
The
call is ours, should we have the similar brand value of Olympics or allow the
organisations like ITU to puncture us forever because of a few ? I'm not sure why you're
attempting to bring the ITU into this discussion. If there are issues
with the structure of APNIC, those should be addressed directly and discussion
on solutions should be examined for their merits and costs rather than raising
the spectre of an external party. Regards, -drc
