Hi Andrew,

Those off-shore offices still need IP space and are critical to the functioning of the organizations in question.  Then we have the issues of points of presence internationally, some of which can be pretty large, which include routers, switches, and potentially servers which are directly related to the functioning of the network on the African continent.


Why these offices that are off continent, can't ask IP addresses from the RIR who serve that region ?
