Bandwidth and power are too expensive in most of Asia, OVH's business model is founded on building DCs next to cheap, plentiful power, then peering at the surrounding IXes for bandwidth. Most of the local IXes in Asia do not have local incumbent carriers participating, and those incumbents want hellish rates to peer.
Routing in Asia will remain crappy due to these peering problems, and volume wholesalers will be few and far between so long as power is spendy.
