Good news. I assume it's a referral from Google APAC (based in HK) and we have already had Mr. Lokman Tsui, policy advisor to Google on our mailing list :-)<div><br></div><div>I think it could be useful to invite people from NTT or Softbank, but many of us only know their technical people, not policy / law people. </div>

some people in this MSG and was asked to contribute to the APrIGF. I<br>
heard that they have strong interest in the WCIT issue.<br>
Although this is their headquarter issue, I suggested that they work<br>
through their Japan office (especially for funding) and me so that I can<br>
work for the arrangement inside the MSG. I will soon forward their<br>
proposal and if necessary (which means that if their proposal is part of<br>
a session, which is likely), I would like to work with the people<br>
interested in this issue to arrange a session or several sessions.<br>
Additionally, AT&T Japan is saying that AT&T is also very interested in<br>
this issue. When the arrangement starts, I might be able to pull them in<br>
if we want.<br>

"Confrontation on Internet", which we can have some one to describe SOPA/PIPA in US congress, some one talk about the development on ACTA in EC, and some one talk about the topic can be happened in IGF/Baku (Paul might be a good person, since he is a member of MAG). As I know, Dr. William Drake is coming to the APrIGF, he is a wright person to talk about the possible political development in WCIT. If necessary, I can be the moderator if no one want to be. :-)<br>
