1. Introduction
Good morning. The meeting is called to order. I would like to extend my sincere welcome to all members and observers here at the Sixth Session of the Council. I particularly welcome H.E. Susilo Bamgbang Yudhoyono‚ the former president of the Republic of Indonesia‚ who has come a long way to attend this meeting.
Today's meeting is expected to mark a watershed in the development of the GGGI which was launched as an international organization in 2012. We are going to deal with many critical issues such as the organization’s mid-term strategy and governance structure. Once we reach consensus and make decisions on these issues‚ they will indeed lead to significant changes in the GGGI’s strategic priorities‚ core activities‚ business model‚ and organizational structure in the years ahead.
Taking this opportunity‚ I with to say that Korean Government attaches particular importance to today’s Council. As President Park emphasized at the UN Climate Summit this September‚ Korea views climate action not as a burden but as an opportunity. The establishment of the GGGI was‚ I believe‚ precisely aimed to seize this opportunity and make it a reality.
Korea would like to see the GGGI make success stories in terms of knowledge sharing on low carbon climate resilient development pathways and creation of new jobs and industries in developing countries. Considering the pivotal role of the private sector in greening the economy‚ we also want to see the GGGI enhance its interface with the private sector. It is hoped that the GGGI will become more transparent and effective in delivering its new strategy.
Against this backdrop‚ it is indeed an honour for me to serve as the acting Chair of this meaningful Sixth Council Meeting.
2. Adoption of the Agenda
Let us now turn to the draft agenda for the meeting. Members have before them the draft agenda for the Sixth Session of the Council‚ as set out in document C/6/AG/1.
I would like to invite participants to offer any comments they may have on the draft agenda.
(PAUSE)
Since there are no comments‚ the draft agenda is so adopted.
(BANG GAVEL)
3.Appointment of expert and non-state-actor members of the Council and election of the Council Bureau
The Council will now proceed to the second item on the agenda‚ ‘appointment of the expert and non-state-actor members of the Council and election of the Council Bureau’.
Before we appoint new expert and non-state-actor members of the Council‚ I would like to express once again my sincere gratitude to H.E. Lars Rasmussen‚ former chair of the Council.
His contribution and devotion to the GGGI have been tremendous since its inception. He has not only provided invaluable strategic advice to the newly established GGGI‚ but also raised the GGGI's visibility at a global level. With his tireless efforts‚ the GGGI has become a trusted partner of many countries around the world in a short period of time.
I would also like to thank Professor Suh-yong Chung for his valuable contribution to the GGGI. While his term as a non-state-actor member of the Council comes to an end this year‚ I hope that we will continue to benefit from his expertise for the future activities of the GGGI.
As I understand it‚ in order to fill the vacancies in the Council membership‚ the Director-General has already communicated with all Council members in writing on a list of four candidates‚ who‚ I understand‚ received broad support from the members.
They are :
1. H.E. Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono‚ Former President of the Republic of Indonesia‚
2. Dr. Hoesung Lee‚ Vice Chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)‚
3. Mr. Peter Bakker‚ President and CEO of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD)‚
4. Mr. Mark Watts‚ Executive Director of the C40 C
