Thank you Yannis,

If we look at 3. Objectives, article 2, I would like to suggest to include
multikstakeholders instead of all stakeholders. All stakeholders is a very
west lobbying centric term and is politically incorrect. We should clearly
mention multimstakeholders in our objectives.

In 4. Organizational Principles, academia, youth and gender participation
is missing. Again, a multistakeholder approach and the term itself should
be used.

I would also like to raise the point that the MSG Chair should be selected
on a yearly basis. This is to reflect that as the APrIGF rotates, and moves
in between different countries with different economic and development
environments can also choose chairs that are sensitive or accustomed to
those different environments. Many wouldn't understand this at this point
but once this adopted, it manages a transparent management of the MSG as
well as creates confidence that the process rotates on a yearly basis and
other countries can also be part of the candidacy for Chairmanship.
