The process is good, I did the same excepted I also potentially needed 
good Mainland China connectivity (what are the obvious reasons?), 
otherway I think would have take the Singapore option. Getting things 
done there is not a problem either.

I choose the Mega iAdvantage datacenters in HK.




Yes, thank you - that was the datacenter I had read about in my own research.  What did you think of the height of that building and its location on reclaimed sea land ?  It makes me nervous, but as I said in a different message in this thread, it looks like ALL of urban HK is reclaimed so ... who knows.

I was saying that I did not want the servers _inside of_ China, for obvious reasons.  Although the actual geography of shenzhen makes it much more appealing, even though we want greater freedom RE: content/filtering/freedom of speech/etc. (if only for principles sake).

Thanks for your comments.
