 The ITU's Global Symposium for Regulators, GSR, is a unique event that gives you the opportunity to meet with colleagues around the world and exchange experiences and best practices. At the time when we are deploying first generation networks, we definitely need a first generation regulation to facilitate convergence of infrastructure, services and service providers and streamline the usage of scarce resources such as frequency spectrum. GSR is an initiative which we, I am thinking all regulators from around the world, need it because it is the place when we can meet together and share our experience. For not just the policy makers from around the world but industry to come together and not just come together but even to be mixed together sitting at the same tables on the same panels, truly having a dialogue about the important issues of the day and sharing experiences in a format where we're not trying to reach conclusions, we're recognizing that everybody's particular situation might be a little different but we learn what has worked and what has not worked in the common goal to try to improve our development goals. You have to find PPP solutions, public-private partnership solutions and since everything is integrated more or less in the future, this is even more important and this is one of the opportunities. In my mind GSR is one of the most important meetings of the year, it's the only meeting in the world that gathers all of the regulators in one place at one time and if you look at over the years back to 2000 there were what fewer than 20 regulators here and this year we have over 350 people from 120 plus countries, it's unique and it's the only place that all the regulators come together and the capacity building, the information sharing, the sharing of best practices, it doesn't happen anyplace else. It's always exciting, it's always good to meet our friends and new faces, the world of telecommunications is constantly changing and I think it just gives us opportunity to do some checks and balances and learn from other people's experiences. It has the regulatory as well as the real life business situation merged into one so I think that's a great opportunity for all the stakeholders to come together. Well I think as much goes on out of the room, as goes on in the room and that is fascinating. I think regulators are comparing notes on how they want to go forward, I think it's very much like the cafeteria at the UN. It's very important to hear opinions from the rest of the world and also to apply a certain experience from those countries which are applicable for the small European countries like Croatia is. This is one forum to discuss the regulators, other industry people sharing the resources, sharing the knowledge, this is a wonderful place to share everything. Next GSR will be in Poland in Warsaw, it is our capital, it will be from 3rd to 5th July. I think that we will have a very good agenda, we will talk about for example second dividend I hope. Poland is in the centre of Europe so I think that the connection are very good so I invite everyone to Warsaw in the next summer. Please join me in Warsaw Poland from 3rd to 5th July 2013 for GSR 13.
