Hey there all,

I have spoken to Mr. Sodhi off-list and asked him a couple of things and told him a few others, and it seems as though he has never attended an APNIC meeting.

Now while this is not a requirement, it certainly speaks to anyones suitability for a position on the EC.

I am concerned by his comments on his election profile @�http://meetings.apnic.net/33/elections/dr-js-sodhi where his motivation is to 'represent India in the APNIC Executive Council'.

Unfortunately that is not what serving on the EC is all about. �It is about serving all 50+ economies in the region and not just representing the interests of your home economy. �Indeed if you home economy goes against the overall community, then you should be looking out for everyone - not your home country.

This goes for everyone, not�Mr.�Sodhi. �It also goes for the other candidates: Prof Yan (China), Mr Akinori (Japan) and Mr Cheng (Hong Kong) - all three who I know value the overall community above their own home country interests.

Serving on the EC is something someone should aspire to after a reasonable number of years serving and participating in the APNIC community in different capacities including Policy, partaking in SIGs, getting to know people - basically contributing to the APNIC community in some way.

I am not singling out�Mr.�Sodhi. �I would say the same about a candidate from Australia, NZ or any other country in our region who has not 'done their time' in service to the community.

A note to APNIC members on this list - and there are MANY of them. �PLEASE vote. �You are able to vote online @ https://myapnic.net but you will need your digital certificate (easy to request). �Online voting is available for the next couple of days. �If you do not know who to vote for, feel free to assign me as your proxy. �I am headed off to India in the morning for the conference.
