IGF 2014 in Istanbul, Turkey - Open Mic

This was presented via remote participation at the IGF 2014 in Istanbul, Turkey:


Good afternoon. My name is Lee Pan Jeong from South Korea. I am with Netpia.  

We know that even advanced countries are suffering from economic crisis today. What happened to these advanced countries with high speed Internet?

Gathered here today are Internet experts. I am honored to ask these questions for us to ponder. 

1. Where is Cyberspace?
2. What constitution governs the cyberspace?
3. Whose customers are those who type your brand and company names in the Internet Address Bar? Please take note NOT in the SEARCH bar.

Think about this: If you dial the telephone number of Mr. Pizza directly are you a customer of the telephone service, or the operator, like 411? You are definitely a customer of Mr. Pizza. It’s obvious.

In the ICT age, if Internet users type in the URL bar mrpizza.co.kr or mrpizza.com (assuming these are domain names owned by Mr. Pizza) they are evidently customers of Mr.Pizza.  

Just like dialing the telephone numbers, customers are directly connected to Mr.Pizza. The telephone evolved into a more advanced technology-the Internet.

More questions!

4. Who creates jobs for the people – is it the enterprises, or the customers?

We have to keep our customers because fundamentally customers create jobs. Not only the enterprises.

These questions call for everyone’s attention because these are issues that affect the current status of the economy. Sadly, most of us are not well aware of this.

For workplaces, in the agricultural age, people cultivated farmlands.

In the ICT age, we must also cultivate the cyber farmlands

To do this, we must first know: Where is Cyberspace?

Everybody thinks “web” is only about the “world wide web.” However, we have to recognize it has another meaning – trap.
By understanding the cyberspace, we can avoid being trapped.

To all of you who are here today in the IGF meeting. I invite you to think about how we can solve the global economic crisis in relation to the questions that I raised.

Thank you very much.
