<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Last week, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers
(ICANN) held its meeting in Beijing. These meetings are held in every
region, and discuss emerging technical and policy issues relating to the
internet.<br><br>ICANN has several bodies but one of the key one and probably the most
controversial is the Government Advisory Committee. Controversial
because private sector, internet manager types feel that governments
have nothing to do with internet management while governments feel they
should be at the center of it because of public policy concerns. For a
long time, ICANN has worked hard to show that its international and that
there are many other governments involved in decision making and it is

that goes.<br><br>http://www.wanjiku.co.ke/2013/04/kenyas-icann-rep-botches-up-africa-union-relationship-foreign-affairs-to-intervene/<br> </div></body>
