a few more points want to ad
As if I were a decision maker, I would suggest criteria as follows
a. the candidate is geographically from Asia region
b. the candidate is familiar with the current situation & historical
background of the development of Asian chapters
c. the candidate shall be already involved in the regional communication
among Asian chapters
d. the candidate shall also enjoys a good relationship with chapters &
groups in other parts of world
actually I dun have any feeling about the current candidates with an Asian
Chapter endorsement
as both of them really lack the criteria b c d in my checklist above
one probably even have chance to talk with Asian Chapters in Berlin
but seems he/she had not grab the chance according to my knowledge
I personally really doubt that he/she will do such things sth that really
dun do even he want ask sth
(ie even I did see him/her on this list either)
So how much they feel about representing us frankly.
(also worth to ask, if a joint decision is expected, should who intend to
nominate to talk more before the nomination with the rest of the list?)
