[AfrICANN-discuss] Let's be proactive

Tue Oct 30 01:09:01 SAST 2012

I did not expect that from Doc... 

It is unfortunate that Regulations can be used to manipulate or unfairly victimise the target. That is too bad and that abuse happens.

Whats the best way out? Regulations or Freewill? It depends on how good or bad the governance system is.

For me, "regulate" does not mean control. "Regulate" is a bit like "organize".

So you can tap communications, censor publications, enrich yourself or your nephew through competitive advantage, and whatnot, for starters.

But then you were asking rethorically, of course.

Currently, We are working on legislation relating to Internet Regulation, which will be operational by the end of this year 2012.

Why would want to regulate the Internet whose standards and coordination are global ? (perhaps you mean something else?)

I believe that ICT Policies is the foundation because ICANN is not a levitating Organisation. Its Constituents are made by individuals from different countries. Therefore individuals serving in ICANN must have joined the organisation with something from home country to contribute!  that "thing" is policy in addition to good intention.
In that case country ICT policy is important to have had.  Does each country possess one?

I thought this list is about ICANN and Internet or is it for ICT now?

Thank P for this.

Shall we begin by looking whether each country has an uptodate ICT Policy? If now how can they be encouraged to             craft one? I ll be ready to put energy into that. This is especially on policy that encourage Private Sector development for the benefit of its people and the Africa region.
Let us take stock since it is more than 10 years now since the need of ICT policies became obvious.

Why m I suggesting this? Policy is the foundation.

Colleagues,

As you must have noticed, the discussions in the last             weeks only turned out to be a ping pong party between 2 or 3             people. Of course, others, be they elders, pioneers, youngsters and babies (!) could not find any interest in the             debate..

Another Bantu (Aka) proverbs states that 'When you open your mouth in public to address people, make sure you are concise, to the point and not too long! For if you fail to do this, you might make your audience turn away and leave you alone in the circle!!'

Thus, may I suggest we just concentrate on a few simple             and doable things which make a difference in the development of Africa's Internet ecosystem?

May we share those information, documents and facts that are of interest to us all ? May we showcase those successes/and failures which show individual countries are moving ahead in building their own Internet environment?

Regards
Pierre D.
