[Chapter-delegates] UN request for info on ISOC steps toward enhanced cooperation

[Kabani]

Greetings, Bill,

Thank you for sharing the info, we just want to say that ISOC is doing a
perfect jobs, as fellow of IGF with United Nations I have seen that ISOC
have contribute a lot to IG process, in public policy, suggestion here is
that now ISOC should recommend the IGF to include academics institutions,
business, civil society and donor government to ensure that Foreign Director
Investment are made in the area Internet as Interest is the key to Knowledge
Economy and Government member of UN must take measure to include this in
Public Policy at Large to end poverty and have sustainable development
through Internet.

Best Regards


Asif Kabani
Director, Public Policy and ICT, ISD-RC, Geneva
Vice President, ISOC, Pakistan
