I see, understood Gaurab and Skeeve it's not just a case of Pakistan.
Would it accomodate the situation if the criteria is revised as below?
a. Mutlihomed/plan to be multihomed in the near future OR
b. A single homed but is/plans to be connected by BGP with upstream if
wit justification of why an ASN is needed for such network
Put it in the guidelines that a case such asit is expected that an
applicant's environment of connectivity leads to the needs to
constantly change upstreams can be a reason to justify b.
I haven't talked to operators from Japan about this so would also
welcome their feedback (or anyone else offcourse!) if this is likely to
creat issues.

- Case of Pakistan It was helpful to hear about the case of
Pakistan from Aftab, if I understood it correctly, wishes to be
able to switch upstreams easily to ensure adequate service will be
provided. It was felt that those needs should be tolerated and find
ways to address it, questions were raised whether we should change
the general criteria to address an indivisual case like this.
I don't think this is specific to Pakistan. It's applicable across the
board in the region. Carriers like to keep their customers captive
everywhere, just the level of professionalism varies.
