Description
Meanwhile, the continent for which we get the most of requests is Asia (before North-America and Europe):
https://stats.kiwix.org/
But, most of our mirrors are in Europe and then North America. None is in Asia:
https://master.download.kiwix.org/mirrors.html
This is not optimal for the quality of service related to the delivering of ZIM files (mostly).
We should better achieve to have at least one mirror in Asia. Singapore would be a good candidate.

Research direction
Review the existing mirror list at master.download.kiwix.org/mirrors.html, the traffic data at stats.kiwix.org, and related issue operations#289. Determine the hosting and deployment requirements for a Singapore or other Asian mirror; done means an operational mirror serving ZIM files and appearing in the public mirror list.
