Clicking on the 2.17 we see in http://www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-wrap/pingtable.pl?by=by-node&file=alpha&from=MY.UM.PINGER&to=MY.AIU.EDU.MY^{Image Removed} that this is true for each month Feb thru April 2013.

Looking in pingtable.pl at the last 120 days from UM to Malaysia we see this is true for each day measured (the URL is http://www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-wrap/pingtable.pl?file=alpha&by=by-node&size=100&tick=last120days&from=MY.UM.PINGER&to=Malaysia&ex=none&only=all&dataset=hep&percentage=any^{Image Removed})

Looking in pingtable.pl at last 120 days for minimum RTT for UM to Malaysia we see the min RTT to be consistent at ~ 1.2ms.

Using the Google map tool (with Chrome or Firefox) http://www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu/wan-mon/viper/pinger-coverage-gmap.html^{Image Removed} we see Alor Setar is in the N. of Malaysia.

Using http://www.distance-calculator.co.uk/world-distances-kuala_lumpur-to-alor_setar.htm^{Image Removed} we see the distance between KL and is 358.1 km.
The limit of maximum distance using the speed of life in fibre gives distance=alpha*min_RTT*100km (with alpha =1) or ~ 120km.

Thus I come to the conclusion that the host www.aiu.edu.my is not in Alor Setar. I will Disable this host in our database.

www.mib.edu.my

This host is for the Malaysian Institute of Baking. According to the database it is at 3.0997 101.6451. However, www.mib.edu.my is using an external hosting company in Malaysia (Exabytes) and they (Exabytes) seems to have server in two different location, one in Penang and another in KL. Not really sure which server the website is located. We found that the directivity from UM was >2.
