After a request, I can confirm that Burma / Myanmar dropped off the
BGP tables here over the weekend :

and was missing totally on May 3 and 4.

Note that the path has changed, with

7700 SINGTEL-DVBIP-AS-AP [NSK1-AP]
{Singapore 588397, SG} SINGAPORE TELECOMMUNICATIONS LTD
9304 HUTCHISON-AS-AP [IH17-AP]
{HONG KONG, HK} Hutchison Telecom (HK) - Mobile, pager,
fixed network

now being involved.

Is it possible that the Cyclone on Saturday took Burma off of the air ?
