Hello Hafedh...
Thank you for the information you have provided.... my line of thought
which is similar to what you have presented is based in the observation
that a number of people seem to have illusions in their understanding of
what is ICANN. Too many hearsays and misinformations have happened to even
at higher levels...is it due to to the fact that there is a tendency of not
taking time to read the basics or believing in what they are told?

....need I say more? We have seen the obvious ignorance around us..

Cheers
Yassin
