Greetings

I would like to thank the NARALO leadership and membership for the
nomination ( put forward by Alfredo Calderon) for myself to serve once
again in the capacity of NARALO Secretariat.  I do accept the nomination
and the results due to acclaimation and will conduct to the best of my
ability the duties of the office and will work with our chair and community
to continue our mission.   It's important to acknowledge the massive
challenges that  Judith and Eduardo have faced for the past two years
trying to keep our ship sailing amidst the Covid 19 pandemic. Its impact
has seriously hurt the entire community that will take tremendous effort to
return some form of normal.

We only can look into 2022 and the plans in ICANN San Juan in March 2022
and making a strong impact which will include our NARALO General Assembly.
 If you recall the great success we had at our last event in New Orleans
and the 10th anniversary celebration in San Juan we can see great things
happening together.
As I continue to serve NOMCOM which goes into an intensive phase of deep
dives and interviews ( this has been most challenging as well)  I will hope
to get more involved in NARALO activities   once again after the ICANN
Nomcom selection process is over .

Thanks again for the support

Glenn
