It has been a busy time with APRALO, ALAC, ALAC Leadership Team and ccNSO meeting activities on top of a hectic day job as project manager for Cook Islands Government development projects. During my term, my working group participation has included the development of Rules of Procedure for both ALAC and APRALO, the establishment of MOUs with both APNIC and APTLD, the Metrics and Capacity Building Working Groups and relationship building with the RALO Secretariats. I was also on the BMSPC which ran the election of the ALAC member to the Board and am on the newly initiated At Large Review Working Party. I hosted two APRALO leaders (Holly and Ali) on Rarotonga for our PacINET, and participated with Satish in the APRICOT event in Japan - both were CROPP events. I am very grateful for the APRALO Leadership Team that I work with, and I have enjoyed meeting and working with the members of our APRALO ALSes at our General Assemblies. If I am the choice for APRALO to the ALAC for another term, then I will continue do my best to achieve any new goals and objectives that we set for our Asian, Australasian and Pacific Islands region and our ALS members. |
