Hi I would like to urge affiliate members to proactively participate in this discussion. The meeting is scheduled for 7pm tomorrow and the day after is the last late to nominate the selector for the region. The selectors will play a very important role in selecting some members for the drafting committee. To have our voices heard, it's important to have our representative as selector. Please consider nominating yourself for the role of selector as well. *Regards,*
