[rpd] Policy Proposal: in-region vs out-of-region use of resources, and restrictions thereon

[Murungi Daniel]

Dear Christian,

I find your view on this topic very shortsighted. Given the penchant for abuse, greed, and the fact that AFRINIC got the short end of the stick with regards to number allocations, it is imperative that AFRINIC and it’s members ensure that the allocated number resources are actually used within the region.

As I have mentioned before, because others do it, is not a valid argument for us to copy and paste policies from other RIRs without weighing the benefits and understanding the long term impact of these policies in the context of our RIR.

Regards,
Murungi Daniel

Other registries allow inter-RIR transfers primarily because economies are adapting to globalization. I am pretty sure that a well-managed RIR can still promote regional development while being open to opportunities with other regions. I am very much open to the concept of having a limitation and other rules but Internet resources cannot be monopolized and the internet must not be divisive in essence.
