How could AINC achieve its goals? • We need the support of ICANN, IETF, WIPO and Arab institutions such as the Arab League and the ITU regional office for Arab countries, etc. • We need consumers to voice themselves and let us know their feedback • We need trademark holders to present their perspective
Conclusion • We have to recognize that the Internet is a global medium • We have to recognize the cultural and linguistic differences when looking for a solution. The involvement of local communities is very important • When examining solutions we have to pay more attention to the long-term solution • Cooperation with MINC, ICANN, IETF, ITU & WIPO is very important to the legitimacy of AINC • Institutionalizing our activities is very encouraging for the industry and for the Arabic Internet user • Standards that we come up with need to be compliant with the current Internet infrastructure. We don’t need to have an Arabic Intranet. We need to be part of the global community
