Interesting...Looking at the current Hedera website (www.hedera.com) which has a

spinning globe that shows only the northern hemisphere. It has little glowing dots for all the council nodes, and if you hover over them the globe stops an gives information about the node. Almost all of them are in Europe or the US. For example South Africa's Standard Bank node is in Warsaw Poland. Hong Kong's DLA Piper node is in London. Australia's EFTpos node is on Oregon. IIT Madras node is in Georgia. Singapore's DBS Bank node is in Pennsylvania. India's Tata node is in California .... What gives? Why aren't these nodes run in their home countries?... The only ones running in their home countries are Japan Nomura, Shinhan Bank and LG in South Korea, Wipro in Mumbai, Zain in Kuwait... (and maybe Magalu in Brazil) Shouldn't they all be running locally?

This is a really interesting question? If the nodes are attached to gc’s where is their infrastructure located? Is it possible it’s just a coincidence based on previous outsourcing or previously affordable access to an internet branch?

Yes I'm sure that's the case, but I hope it is a temporary situation. According to the the decentralization model they've been advertising, these nodes should be distributed not only by industry and country of registration, but also geographically. There may fear of being in certain geographic regions where the internet is dominated by, say, China, but in theory we should be seeing wider geographic distribution

That was exactly the question I had! Maybe a good one for the town hall?
