[OT?!?] Good Chinese network peerings and/or Chinese ISPs?!?

Fri May 27 16:32:23 UTC 2005

I apologize if this is not the right forum, but I am grasping at  
straws, already.

I have done thorough (latency) analysis, from various sites and/or  
providers in China (CNC group, Beijing BII group, Sprintlink Asia  
Pacific, China United Telecom, Sturhub PTE, Chinanet backone, Sichuan  
Electric Power <something-or-other>, China Netcom, etc.), and I  
cannot find anything that would resolve the problem of immense RTT to  
Europe and USA, compared to any other parts of the world.

I fully understand issues revealed here:

in conjunction (perhaps proxy-induced latency ?!?) with these:

... but I am just asking if anyone has recommendations of good  
Internet connectivity from mainland China, to the outside world  
(perhaps "hoping" through other Asian providers, etc.?!?) ... any  
other ideas?!?

TIA,
Stef
