  @Zappie I also guessed the final price but it seems I wasn't counted (if I missed some rules, I'm sorry.)

  Oh you are 100% right, I was out here searching for "51.50" instead of 51.5

  Thanks for spotting and letting me know, please DM and we will (as per competition) get you sorted with you a yearly VM too!

  The YABS from New Zaeland to Singapore are bit High, +- 120ms , despite APAC member, right?

  Pretty good for SG APAC Alternatives Besides Indonesia & Malaysia or other ASEAN VPS

  almost half of what usual Singapore to USA +-200ms

  Great Spec anyway.

  Par for the course... really depends where you go and how.
  I know that I can hit my Onidel SG end point at 131ms and I am about 15ms away from Auckland.

  I think this is as good as it gets actually. The vast majority of traffic from Singapore to Zappie, NZ seems to be carried via GSL on the entire route (Singapore -> Perth -> Sydney -> Auckland).
  That alone takes around 115ms:

  To give a comparison, Singapore -> Sydney is usually 90-95ms, so the hop to Auckland adds just 20ms.

  There doesn't seem like there are a lot of providers in New Zealand but Zappie is still likely the best you can get there

  There doesn't seem like there are a lot of providers in New Zealand but Zappie is still likely the best you can get there

  Quic is another provider that recently entered the compute market(originally a self support ISP meant for enthusiasts). They are the sister brand of Vetta, which Zappie absolutely has an upstream with Vetta. Combine that with GSL and well it's a match make in heaven.

  There is also Voyager but... Is owned by a very interesting person.
