:| As I understand, KIX is mostly domestic Korea.
Yes.
:| Japan has NSPIX3 and JPIX. There is enough

Umm,,, To be correct, Nationwide IXes in Japan are NSPIXP2,
NSPIXP3, JPIX. NSPIXP3 is located in Osaka.
Yes, M.root-servers.net is on NSPIXP2 and donated transit
through NSPIXP2 by some ISPs. It may be called int'l
capacity. :-)
:| And based on what I have been told, both HKIX and
:| STIX can be called international. There is a
:| common error in assuming international = US domestic.
:|
:| This is false.

Thanks for pointing out. "international" means just the
multi-nationality of participant ISPs, right?
:| Both STIX & HKIX have interconnections to ISPs in
:| many other nations but not quite the connectivity back
:| to the US.

I see.
