In accordance with the Board Election Procedures <https://www.dot.asia/policies/BGC004-BoardElectionsProcedures-v2-1-20241211…> BEP <https://www.dot.asia/policies/BGC004-BoardElectionsProcedures-v1-5-20221221…>, section 2.6.

Nomination Results The Nominations Committee has determined, based on the information available to it as at January 17, 2025, that all the Nominees meet the eligibility criteria to be nominated for the DotAsia Board Election 2025. As per the <https://www.dot.asia/policies/NoticeOfBoardElections2025-20241211.pdf>Notice of Board Elections 2025 <https://www.dot.asia/policies/NoticeOfBoardElections2025-20241211.pdf>, a Nominations Report will be available by January 30, 2025. Access to the report will be available on January 30, 2025 via the following link: https://dot.asia/docs/elections/dotasia2025-nominations-report_R.zip Election Outcome SPONSOR CATEGORY Since the number of candidates standing for the election in the Sponsor Member category is equal to the number of vacancies in that category (i.e. we have 2 candidates and 2 seats) and one candidate meets the Geographical Diversity Requirement, no voting is required. Maureen HILYARD and Jose A. LAY are therefore deemed elected as they are the only candidates in the Sponsor Member category. CO-SPONSOR CATEGORY Since the number of candidates standing for the election in the Co-Sponsor Member category is equal to the number of vacancies in that category (i.e. we have 1 candidate and 1 seat), no voting is required. Akinori MAEMURA is therefore deemed elected as he is the only candidate in the Co-Sponsor Member category. Thank you for your attention to this message and your participation in this year’s election. Regards, Ellen Strickland DotAsia Board Election Chair, on behalf of the DotAsia Election Committee 2025 Note: This is an announcement email, please do not reply to announce(a)dot.asia.
