<br>
G. Additional Information<br>
Our early interest in ISOC was encouraged and supported during INET KL, and we now have good momentum present within Malaysia to take this chapter forward. We also a put together a multi-stakeholder group, representative of all sectors, as evidenced in our group of founding members.<br>
<br>
I am also personally involved with the Malaysian IPv6 Forum as the Co-Chair, amongst other things. We also have linkages with other ICT groups (e.g. contacts at PIKOM, IPv6 Working Group and etc) which will help us ensure that ISOC Malaysia remains a multi-stakeholder group with wide outreach.<br>
<br>
IPv6 education and training, security awareness are some of the activities that we will engage in as a chapter.<br>
