[APAC-Discuss] APRALO Showcase Call for Participation

Wed Mar 30 02:25:01 UTC 2011

Thank you, Charles.

I had made very clear, when accepting the temporary caretaker role at APRALO
Extraordinary Meeting in Brussels June 2010, that I shall hand over the job
immediately after a new Chair was elected. I was only tasked to complete the
remaining term of the ex-Chair who was elected in March 2009. I shall keep
my promise strictly that I will NOT run for another term.

I sincerely wish a new leader would be selected as early as possible. This
is a public call for interest to this important public service opportunity
in APRALO.
