- Date: Tue, 7 May 2019 01:29:56 -0400 Dear Friends, Through this email, I allow myself to make a proposal of what I understand these elections should be. I do not agree in giving retroactivity to the principle of rotation. This means that the current leaders (president and secretary) will only be one year, instead of 2 years as established by the new operating principles. This is a discrimination that has no basis. Nor do I agree with the interpretation that Dev presents in its mail about what he understands about the rotation principle. Dev’s interpretation was not what we talked about in Puerto Rico. According to my interpretation of the principle of rotation, this should work in the following way and in order to explain my point I will use my case as an example: When I finish my period as ALAC MEMBER (2020), there will be elections for this position. My interpretation of the principle of rotation has two consequences: 1.- A negative aspect: To choose the person who assume the position of ALAC Member, this person cannot be from the Andes sub region to which I belong. 2.- A positive aspect: For the next election of Chair - vice-chair and secretary vice-secretary (2021) there is no impediment that someone from the region of the Andes should run. For these reasons, I would like to make the following proposal that starts from the current positions and sub regions: PERÍODO 2019 – 2021 CARGOS REGIÓN Chair D: MERCOSUR ElectedChair B ANDES Secretary B: ANDES Elected Secretary A: CENTRAL ALAC Member 1 C: CARIBE Advised by LACRALO to serve within NOMCOM C: CARIBE ALAC Member appointed by NOMCOM Member elected by NOMCOM I suggest taking Dev's proposal and mine and submitting them to a vote of LACRALO so that we can move forward.
