I hope it does not fail cos it represents Asia. But I also agree that the price is way too expensive.

It may not be a good domain for the english speaking residents. But just think about the business that is going to happen in the market. There are many many big business giants here and much more who are trying to build up their business in asia. So they will find a great deal of job done with this.

There is also a news that along with .asia ICANN decided .travel as domain name. Domain names are now getting interest specific.

I could say that only the business people would go rush to buy their respective domain names. Else others will try to spoil the name. Other than that it will not have a great welcome as so many domain names are already available.
