 May I now turn to Mr. Lin Zhao, the Secretary-General of ITU, and at the heart of this noble effort of the Broadband Commission. It's your floor. Thank you, Mr. Chairman, President, for your very kind words. Mr. President, also Mr. Carlos Lin, my dear colleague, Madam Elena Bukova, dear commissioners, your colleagues, ladies and gentlemen, good morning. Let me offer you a very warm welcome to this Yalla Club, and a thanks to each and every one of you for joining us here today. On behalf of us all, I would especially like to welcome the new commissioners here today, bringing all their ideas, insights, resources, and energy to the cause of Broadband for sustainable development. By the word new, I mean those who joined us for the first time this year, and for those who started to join us for the first time at the beginning of this year, because this year we had our spring session in Dubai, and some of new commissioners are joining us, and some other new commissioners could not join us at Dubai, but join us for the first time, the real first time here. So I would, President, I would like to take this moment just to introduce these new commissioners to our co-chairmen. Let me start from this side. I think that Rajiv Suri from, CEO from Nokia, and Mr. Salim Ruiz, the governor of Saudi telecom authority agencies. And then we have also Rubai Pierce, the CEO of Imazet, and further down I think that we have Madame Catty Nivella, Nivelli, the undersecretary of State Department of the United States. And further down, let me see who are new, completely new to us. I think that then we come to, I think that Mr. Masui from UAE, the director general of also regular agencies. And then we have Madame Anusha Rakhman Khan, the minister from Pakistani administrations. I think that we also have Mr. Kharia from OECD. That is the first time that I saw you at our meeting. Of course you are not new to us, you are already commissioners. And we have also a minister from Azerbaijan, Mr. Ramin Gurazeda. I think that we have also Mats, the GSMA director general, who joined us the first time this year. And Skut, the CEO of ZAN, who joined us. But they are already there at our Dubai meetings. And also, I think that we have Jane Gurvan from Intel, who replaced our friend who retired now. I think that then it's John Yves Chatelier, the CEO of Wemblecombe. And of course, I think that my Spanish vice-minister has already appeared before, so I don't need to. Otherwise, if I miss anybody, please raise your hand. But anyhow, these are new commissioners who joined us starting from the beginning of this year. So welcome you all. The Dubai meeting was one of our most productive and engaged meetings to date. And I would like to take this opportunity once again to thank Sunny Vaki and the GMS Foundation for their excellent welcome and all the work they put into it. The meeting resulted in a number of innovative ideas and outputs, including a proposal for the commission to develop national digit score cards. For recent months due to their changes, several commissioners have retired from their post or changed their positions. Therefore, and very regrettably, they are no longer with us, including Hans Weisbeck from Edexon and Gordon Grealish from Intel. We thank them for their invaluable and lasting contribution to the work of this commission. Ladies and gentlemen, I also wish to thank you for your very active participation in preparing this year's state of broadband report. I understand that it was benefited from many inputs and a large number of you took the time to review and comment on the draft report. I would really like to thank all of you personally. It is your energy and your effort which has resulted in such a comprehensive set of perspectives and insights into the state of broadband globally, which makes for such interesting reading. As part of the preparations for this year's state of broadband report, I'm pleased to report ITU has carried out the final evaluation for the commission's targets. We estimate that around half of the commission's targets were achieved by the end of 2015. There has been a significant increase in the number of countries with national broadband plan, that is targeted number one, over the lifetime of the commission. Although growth in this number of countries has stabilized recently, today over three-quarters of all countries have some form of national broadband plan or ICT strategy, up from just over 100 in 2010, actually in 2010. We are now seeing the next evolution of NBGP, national broadband plans, with a growing number of countries extending their national broadband plans to take into privacy, confidentiality, and ownership of data, all the Internet of Things, which with IoT rule maps. During target two, the availability, we have seen mixed progress. Some 83 developing countries have achieved the broadband commission's availability target of offering basic fixed broadband services at under 5% of monthly GNI per capita, but only five LDCs out of 48 have achieved this target. The target number three for household Internet access was achieved by the end of 2015. With 41% of household connected globally against the target of 40%, so we had real good progress. Target number four, for individual Internet access, however, was not achieved by the end of 2015. Although the target of 15% penetration in LDCs should be achieved by the end of this year. Finally, for the target for gender equality in access to broadband target five, we have actually seen some indication that the digital gender divide might be growing, not reducing. My colleague Irina already mentioned, given everything we know about the importance of female access and what it means for the next generation, this is the most regrettable. And I would like to urge you to adopt a zero-tolerance policy towards gender-digital divides. In light of this, I'm particularly looking forward to the outcomes of the working group on the digital gender divide, and we had a very good meeting yesterday. We will receive some briefings on the result. Distinguished commissioners, empowering people through broadband can enable them to make the most of their opportunities and offers answers to some of today's most pressing programs, including broader programs of migration, social conflict and climate change, but also changing mindsets and transforming attitude, especially to women. However, as our most recent state of broadband report of the commission's connectivity targets makes clear, there are considerable challenges involved in connecting people with broadband. As I mentioned, the target for household in developing countries with access to the Internet was achieved this year, actually, last year, 2015, household Internet penetration for developing countries increased from 37.6% in 2015 when we achieved our goals, now again, up to 41.1% in 2016. And yet, it is unclear that target 1.1 will be achieved by 2020. That globally, 55% of households should have access to the Internet. So we just mentioned this 41% to move to 55% in a couple of years, that is really a challenge. In Dubai, we discussed the possibility of renewing packets, which commissioners were broadly enthusiastic about. So we needed reasonable targets to achieve our own goals on what is feasible to achieve by 2020 or 2021. And how can we meet these targets? According to the ITU Connect Target 1.2 target, 60% of the global population should be using the Internet by 2020. Really equivalent to bringing another 1.5 billion people online. But what are the challenges involving accomplishing this? Let's try our best. We still have some time, though not very much. We still have opportunities to reach those goals by 2020. I would be very pleased if we could have some discussions on this point during this meeting. In this one, I would like to advise you that ITU would like to work with members and partners within the UN as well as with anyone who could help us to build a coalition around SG-9 to ensure that broadband is at the forefront of people's minds when they discuss infrastructure and innovation. From these fundamental efforts, we can target SDGs where broadband can have a major and immediate impact, such as SDGs 3, 4 on health and education, or longer term, positively impact such as SDGs 11 and 13 on smart cities and climate actions. I will have further discussions with you and I count on your support. Ladies and gentlemen, turning to today's agenda, the first session this morning, building on broadband to leave no one behind, moderated by Matt Greener, Director-General of GSMA. We have covered the vital role of broadband for achieving the sustainable development goals in health and education, as well as some of the important development going on right now at the UN level. The second session this morning, investing US 450 billion in broadband to connect 1.5 billion people by 2020, will be chaired by Dennis Obien of DigiCell, who generously hosted our 2014 spring session, and we continue their conversations, the commissions began at the World Economic Forum in Davos earlier this year. And for this, you know, yesterday, we had some kind of discussions, and this morning was also with Carlos, and Carlos has some comments that these 450 million, where to find these 450 million, and he believed that private sector will invest a lot, and even more than this amount we just talked about. I think that he will give us his ideas later. We will also be hearing from the working group of the commissions, with an update on their progress.
