[Chapter-delegates] A huge day for Internet in Tunisia

[Norbert Klein]

Dear Khaled,

I am happy to join in the words of Alejandro - and for me as for many
others the present situation is related to our experiences during one
preparatory meeting and one of the two WSIS events in your country,
which - at that time - had also provided some insight into the problems
which, hopefully, are now changing towards a better future.
