FW: [ncsg-policy] Draft NCSG comments to GNSO Council on Rec 6

[Dwi Elfrida Martina S]

Yah.. we have to proof that NCSG can draft and make our own statements.
Not only statement that we support other party statement, indeed without
knowing clearly what is their background, justification, reasons, upon
their statement.Then, I will call it " plagiarism action".

Let make our own statement, that will reflect our own position, let build
our barganing position within ICANN society. However, we will do action to
support ALAC's statement, we already have our own analyze, justification
upon ALAC's statement point by point.


Regards,


Dwi
