[Rigf_program] Host 2014 Proposals Evaluation

[Ang Peng Hwa (Prof)]

This is very good news indeed that we have another bidder.

Given the introduction of the new competition, I would second Fouad's view
on the criterion of readiness. Rajesh and ISPAI had been pursuing the bid
to host an APrIGF for two years now. They have also attended various
meetings and know what is expected in one of our meetings. The bid from
the University of Philippines Cebu is very encouraging but I think it has
underestimated the support--eg translation, live transcribing, live
webcast--that we have come to expect.

It would be good if Espinosa, who submitted the bid, be informed of the
support expected and if he could attend the meeting in Seoul so he knows
what is expected.

Regards,
Peng Hwa
