It is bad to have to hand the company back to the Govermments control however the non-sense has to stop and the only way this is going to happen is by the Government taking control of the board.
The operation and how it is run has to be cleaned up and the current method and people that are involved in it aren't really taking the organisation on the right direction.
The series of HKDNR blunders:
- Auctioning domains on Yahoo. - Wanting the terminate the life time registration terms that HKNIC offered.
- Loss of half of the domains in the .com.hk domains OFF the internet for 10 hours.
- Allowing spammers and criminals register 14,000 domains for spamming, hence netting a likely HK$3.75M to HKDNR
These speak for themselves. What other registrar with such great financial resources can match this?
We have to admit to ourselves that HKDNR/HKIRC has been a failure and the people that could have steered it in the right direction abandoned the ship a long time ago.
It needs to be cleaned up and the current governance is not really doing much and someone has to clean up. Right now the Government seems to be the only party that has the power to do so.
So I urge HKIRC members to vote in favour of the Government takingo ver so that we have a professionally run registrar operated properly.
