[WSIS CS-Plenary] Shirin Ebadi is indeed available

[west]

Dear Maryam

In this case, we totally support her presence as the speaker of the opening 
ceremony for the summit, not de-valuing other speakers, but as human right 
is an issue and she is outspoken, she would be very impressive there. I 
already contacted her office to talk with her, waiting for her call back. 
Please add our regional family as one of the sponsors.

regards

Amir

Dear Amir,

This is to confirm that Ms. Ebadi has finally managed to make herself
available for the Tunis Summit, despite her busy agenda. We have got
the news very late, that is the reason why I posted only yesterday the
message and have sent yesterday also the letters to Mr Utsumi and to
Amb. Karklins.
The Human Rights caucus is in contact with her, through one of its
members. Her participation is entirely confirmed.
We would be happy to include the West-Asia Family in the list of CS
entities proposing Ms. Ebadi as a speaker for WSIS opening.

Kind regards,
Meryem
