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.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:107%;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><br></span></p>

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.

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”.<span> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:107%;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span><br></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:107%;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span><br></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:107%;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span>My very best regards</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:107%;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span><br></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:107%;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span><br></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:107%;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span>Lance Hinds </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:9.5pt;line-height:107%;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial"><span>Devnet Guyana</span></span></p><span><font color="#888888"><div><br></div>-- <br><div>Lance Hinds <br>Chief Technology Officer<br>BrainStreet Group<br>287 'C' Albert St. <br>Georgetown Guyana <br><br> <br><br><br>This message contains information that may be privileged and/or confidential and is the property of BrainStreet Technologies or BrainStreet Learning.
