.Asia is currently selling its pioneer domains program. Pioneer Domains Programs started 11th July until 31st August, 2007.

It is a good opportunity to submit a proposal for http://yourdomain.asia. Although I am not sure how much it would cost for .asia domain for a year, I am pretty sure it is higher compare to the saturated .com.

Here is what the Pioneer domains Programs is all about:-

Applicants will be invited to submit a brief proposal for the domain of their choice. The quality of ideas for utilizing the domain name will be the basis of the allocation of the domain. The best proposal wins the right to operate the best .Asia domains.

PDP currently have 3 different categories:-

1. Community Pioneers – This is where you have your proposal for the best .Asia
2. Global Brand Pioneers – This is for businesses who have trademarks and business to preserve. Preventing domain squatters.
3. Partner Pioneers -  it is primary for accredited registrars to promote and sell .asia

For more information, you could get them at http://www.dotasia.org.
