Hi.
Good news coming from UNESCO - Bulgarian Irina Bokova is the next 
Director-General.
She ran an Internet campaign, as well, and if we want ISOC to enhance 
relations with UNESCO, I'd be happy to help.

Best,
Veni

PARIS - UNESCO says a career diplomat from Bulgaria has defeated a 
controversial Egyptian candidate to head the United Nations agency for 
culture and education.
The chairman of UNESCO's executive board says Bulgaria's ambassador to 
France, Irina Bokova, has beaten longtime Egyptian Culture Minister 
Farouk Hosny in secret balloting.
UNESCO's press office says Bokova won 31 to 27 Tuesday in a suspenseful 
fifth round.
