[lac-discuss-en] Nomination of the LACRALO representative to the ALAC

[Lance Hinds]

Dear All,


Let me first sincerely thank Jose Arce for nominating me and my friend
Antonio Media Gomez for supporting this nomination. After some deep
reflection and soul searching however I wish to advise Staff and the
membership that I will not seek election as LACRALO's representative to the
ALAC.


I believe firmly that if a process for nomination and election has been
established it should be followed. The fact it can be upturned because
persons did not participate in a timely manner is something I continue to
find deeply distressing. I am also not prepared to be accused further of a
conflict of interest because I engage in a business activity for my
livelihood that has nothing to do with my long term interest and commitment
to this RALO.


I have seen the requirements for being an ALAC representative and know I
meet and indeed exceed those requirements. I have demonstrated that I have
collaborated to my at-large colleagues regardless of location or language.
I still feel, however, that the rollout of this process, was in the end, a
subversion of the very democratic process we have committed to uphold in
LACRALO and ICANN as a whole.


I am now convinced that the Caribbean Constituency face and will continue,
an extraordinary challenge in being selected for regional service. Someone
else may be willing to fight this fight. I however cannot summon the energy
to contest in an election that I have already won. I wish all the
candidates in this election the very best as they seek to represent “LA
RALO”.



My very best regards



Lance Hinds
