  8. BUTWHERE TO FROM HERE – HOW CAN WE IMPLEMENT THE WTSA-08 OUTCOMES TO MAXIMIZE REGIONAL BENEFIT?

  9. HOW CAN WE IMPLEMENT THE WTSA-08 OUTCOMES TO MAXIMIZE REGIONAL BENEFIT? • WE NEED TO BUILD ON THE UNANIMOUS ITU MEMBER BSG SUPPORT • RESOLUTION 44 CAN BE (& IS) THE CATALYST • WE SHOULD BE DRIVING & PROPOSING WAYS TO IMPLEMENT RESOLUTION 44 & THE ACTION PLAN: ITU-T & ITU-D • NATIONAL & INTERNATIONAL SOLUTIONS

  12. HOW CAN WE IMPLEMENT THE WTSA-08 OUTCOMES TO MAXIMIZE REGIONAL BENEFIT? • SOME IDEAS: • Leverage from our regional preparations for PP-10 • More ITU & APT cooperation and joint activity will: optimize efforts & resources, reduce overlaps, widen knowledge base & access to information • Think outside the square

  14. LINKAGE WITH PP-10 PREPARATIONS • We can be stimulated through considering the necessary changes to PP Resolution 123 • WTSA-08 Resolution outcomes 44 will feed in to PP-10 • APT PP-10 Regional Preparations: • CG5 – Telecommunication Development Sector Issues (Vietnam India, Malaysia) • Liaison with other Regions for initiatives and proposals
