[CS Bureau] TR: CSB recommendation for CS fellowships at PC-3

[Robert Guerra]

Philippe:

As I mentioned in my earlier (private) message - we indeed have a  
lack of candidates from asia.

Knowing of Mr. Sagun's active role both in the WSIS proper and in  
engaging youth and stakeholders in his region - I, recommend without  
hesitation,  his application for a fellowship.



regards,

Robert
