1. New ALSes Certified

Two new ALSes have joined APRALO. They are Information Policy Analytical Center from Azerbaijan and Cook Islands Internet Action Group (CIIAG) from Cook Islands. We are delighted that Central Asia and Pacific Islands are more involved in APRALO.

Thanks to fellowship program and outreach, a new ALS application from Hong Kong has just been received and another application from Pakistan is hopefully to be received soon.

APRALO is now insensitively preparing for the Showcase at ICANN Singapore Meeting to make a regional celebration for the success of at-large discourse.

2. Policy Works

APRALO submitted comments and statements on IDN Variant Management and Geographic Region Review and participated actively on a couple of ongoing ALAC policy process such as new gTLD AGAT. Meanwhile APRALO encouraged individual members to submit comments to ICANN consultations directly.
