		Asia has begun to emerge from its financial and economic problems of the 1990s; at this critical juncture of rejuvenation, a special, dedicated domain can help players in the region to realize their global citizenship as well as the potential for regionally targeted efforts.
		The “.Asia” domain can also be naturally used by individuals, businesses, organisations as well as community groups, without constraining to a particular silo within the community, promoting a diverse and dynamic community within the “.Asia” namespace.
		This is augmented by the knowledge brought along from participation of Asia Pacific groups (as Co-Sponsor Members and in the Advisory Council) in operating in the interests of the broad based Pan-Asia and Asia Pacific community.
