Re: [lac-discuss-en] Nomination of the LACRALO representative to the ALAC
This is a multipart message in MIME format.
Really? LACRALO under scrutiny? And this is how they behave? And whose face
would Lance be saving f he participates? This is not something to sweep under
the carpet. If ICANN cannot properly manage this, then it deserves to be under
scrutiny. This behaviour did not start today. This is years. How long will it
continue?
The Ombudsman is less than becoming in his dealings with the issue of
governance and interpretation of the rules in relation to LACRALO over the
years. There is no justice for us in ICANN, so let the scrutiny begin.

Lance, I voted the first round for you
I was happy to see you again in the list and IÂm sitting here waiting for the
call
I donât like the idea of you pulling out last minute
ICANN is under close scrutiny of the WHOLE WORLD right now
If there is something that didnÂt go well, we will wait until we can fix it.

I totally understand this decision and applaud your stand for principle.
I am now convinced the electoral process was hijacked. And we are asked to
accept it was a result of ignorance of the rules. The intent is for us only to
pity the result achieved under colour of ignorance.
That is not acceptable to The University of the West Indies and on this record,
that objective is summarily rejected.
When the general assembly - the election - is called, I shall, on a point of
order, offer a motion of no confidence in the LACRALO leadership with all of
the supporting details.
Kindest regards,

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 âLA RALOâ.
My very best regards
