On behalf of the APNIC Executive Council (EC), I'm pleased to announce
that Jia Rong Low has been appointed Director General of APNIC. He will
begin his term in October 2024.
https://www.apnic.net/about-apnic/team/jia-rong-low/
Many in the community will know Jia Rong from his time as Vice
President and Managing Director of ICANN’s Asia Pacific office. Jia Rong
brings an exceptional blend of experience, leadership, and vision to
this role, making him the ideal candidate to lead APNIC into the
future.
With extensive experience working with the Internet community and
facilitating policy making, Jia Rong has demonstrated a profound
commitment to fostering a stable, open, and secure Internet.
During his 11 years with ICANN, Jia Rong has contributed significantly
to the Asia Pacific Internet community and established key partnerships
with stakeholders, government bodies, and regional institutions. He has
also served on the Public Technical Identifiers (PTI) Board of Directors.
The EC believes his deep involvement with regional and global Internet
initiatives equips him with the understanding and strategic insight
necessary to navigate the complex challenges facing our community. Jia
Rong's proven track record of collaborative leadership and his
dedication to inclusivity is vital to address the needs of APNIC’s
diverse membership.
We are confident that Jia Rong will be an outstanding Director General,
driving APNIC forward with integrity, expertise, and a shared vision for
a better-connected world.
Jia Rong will attend APNIC 58 in Wellington, New Zealand, to meet with
the community as the incoming Director General before officially
starting in October. I trust you will join us in welcoming him to
APNIC!
Sent on behalf of Kenny Huang
Chair, APNIC Executive Council
