Country: | .Asia sounds such a nice extension I dont understand why they called the European extension .eu and not .europe. Same for .us it would have been so much better .unitedstates or.france, .unitedkingdom you name it.
Yeah .asia has a great bright future within the same range as .mobi.
I lost the bandwagon once again.

Read the rules about what you can register before trying to register...

Of course this is ridiculous for the asia Registry to claim these domains.
However the country names with dashes aren't on the Reserved list, therefore it is ridiculous that they have denied the registration of these domains. I tried to register The-philippines.asia and didn't get it either, no notification, no refund either.
Btw, I tried to register Unitedstatesofamerica.asia (country name) and went through the regging process, and paid the fee. However whois is showing someone else got the domain. I am still waiting for a refund from Eurodns...

DNF$: 104 Location: Cebu, Philippines | There are still a few Asian cities and countries to register without hypens, just search around.
I did not register them since my budget was only 30$.

Country: | There's probably 100 .asia domains that can be resold to make some money - in 2-5 years, theres probably 500 that can make the reg fee back.
The rest are a loss.
I didn't grab any and won't ever buy them. It's like regging .ee or eastern europe - pointless, but if it comes out I'm sure a lot of people will rush. |
