In my opinion the BCEC has provided the At-large community with a well
balanced slate of candidates from the SoI's received that does NOT need
modifications or additions at all; and so I  propose we make none, nor
support any, names petitioned by any other RALO.

That said I would like to formally thank our Regional representatives Ellen
and Siranush on the BCEC for their excellent work and on the outcome of
course.

Finally I would like to formally go on the record as giving my
congratulations and support to one of the slated candidates (and yes I am
unashamedly being biased here) Rinalia Abdul Rahim, who of course is not
only the only AP based candidate and the only woman, but who has (as we all
should know) been a strong, deeply involved and committed representative
for our Region, and for the interests of At-Large in particular, as she has
served as our Regional Nomcom appointed ALAC member and additionally in the
ALAC executive now Leadership Team (ALT)  for the last few years... I
believe that she should be our RALO's primarily supported candidate for
selection by At-Large for ICANN Board Seat #15 and call on others in our
Region to join me in this.
