Resolution Text: 
Delegation of the ?? and ?? Top-Level Domains to China Internet Network Information Center

Whereas, ICANN has received a request for delegation of ?? , encoded as "xn-fiqz9s"; and ?? , encoded as "xn-fiqs8s"; to China Internet Network Information Center as country-code top-level domains.

Whereas, ?? and ?? are two strings that were deemed to have successfully completed the string evaluation portion of the IDN ccTLD Fast Track process by the ICANN Board of Directors in Resolution 2010.04.22.11.

Whereas, ICANN has determined that the proposal is on behalf of a country or territory that is currently listed in the ISO 3166-1 standard, and therefore eligible to be delegated country-code top-level domains under current policy.

Whereas, the strings applied for delegation are proposed to be used by the applicant in a manner consistent with the country or territory for which they were approved in the string evaluation process.

Whereas, the applicant has undertaken to operate the two top-level domains in a manner which does not cause confusion to the Internet user community, as documented in their implementation plan published online at http://www.cnnic.cn/html/Dir/2010/06/12/5852.htm.

Whereas, ICANN has reviewed the delegation request, and has determined that the proposal would be in the interests of the local and global Internet communities.

Resolved (2010.06.25.16), that the proposed delegation of the . ?? and . ?? top-level domains to China Internet Network Information Center is approved.
