 His Excellencies, Mr Chairman, on behalf of the Brazilian delegation, I want to thank the government of the UAE for the warm and kind reception once again in this astonishing city of Dubai. We are in a very appropriate country for treating telecommunication development. Here the transformations are strong, and I am sure that this development path followed by the UAE will serve us as inspiration for many of us. First, Mr Chairman, please allow me to make a historical reference. On March 31, exactly 50 years ago, Brazil entered in a period of political repression and laws of democratic values. The democracy was recovered 20 years later, and since then values of transparency, accountability, social and economic inclusion are the basis of our democracy, and reflected in every internal and foreign policies we established. Four years ago, at the 5th Development Conference, Brazil exposed some of its most important actions to achieve the great challenges imposed by a continental country, both in size and problems. Much has been done since then in the telecommunication industry. There is still much to be done. As most of the population is already covered by the telecommunication services, we must strive to improve quality at affordable prices. Accessories are now widely spread, but we have to seek the same expansion in regard to the access of fixed and mobile internet. While many citizens already have broadband access, we need to expand access to everyone, and when we allow those currently unconnected to the internet to finally be connected, we need to be ready to transform this access into a tool that enables productivity, improves access to services and goods, while we create opportunities for innovation without distinction or segregation. Needless to say, bringing access to ICTs will be a public policy priority for many years. As this will be for a reason that we all know, ICTs are one of the main engines for the development in the modern world. And if we really want ICTs to serve this noble purpose, we have to implement adequate policies and regulations, create an environment that enables and encourage investments, improve physical infrastructure, guarantee access to technology, define universal, universally accept the standards, and more importantly, foster the willingness to consume, which only merges when one realizes that technologies are really useful. And with this respect to the use and usefulness of the networks, that we are currently facing some great and interesting debate globally. Given that current technologies are comprehensive in scope and possibilities, some have been using it for distinct and sometimes illegal purposes. The danger of the illegal use of ICTs, such as spam, malware, spine, hacking, to say just a few, is the creation of an environment of distrust and generalized retraction, where the positive network externalities are lost or worse, end up concentrated in one or just a few players. With this context in mind, Brazil submitted to this conference its own priorities, optimization of PDT structure and activities, maintenance of questions and topics of study, cyber security and internet related issues, a WSIS plus stand review process, development of reliable indicators and statistics, and finally strengthening the capacity building activities. We strongly believe that much lateral and mood stakeholder forum provide enabling environments for the discussion of issues that affects us all. And that coordination among those many existing institutions dealing with ICTs should be sought. Even if it takes considerable time and further efforts to consolidate. And it is in this sense that we understand that RTU, in particular the D sector, should continue fulfilling its role as a leading agent and facilitator of the lines of action mandated by the WSIS vigorously and with the participation of all ITU members. Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and we look forward to share our views with our colleagues in the coming years, in the coming days. Thank you. Thank you.
