Hello everyone

From the ISOC Colombia Chapter we support the creation of this new chapter. The letter seems to have clear chapter objectives, and we think it is ready to be part of this community of ISOC's Chapter.

All the best

Dear Chapter Leaders,


Hope you are well.

We recently received the application to start an Internet Society Chapter in  Lao People's Democratic Republic (Laos). I have attached their application and kindly invite you to review it and share your comments by 2 April 2026.


If you know of any active Internet Society members in Laos who are interested in joining this initiative, please let me know via rajiyung at isoc.org<mailto:rajiyung at isoc.org> . I will happily connect them to the volunteers who submitted this application.


Your comments and input will help us make a final decision on this application and move to the next steps.


Thank you very much in advance for your feedback!
Kind regards,
Sohini
