Indeed, and sorry to travel into relevant subject matter for this  
list, related to Randy's comment...

Check your recursive caches for queries in the .asia tld. This looks  
like being another RFC1918 type of issue in the name space. Its  
amazing how many people use internal namespace that is geographic.  
And unlike .eu  (thank goodness it wasn't .europe) .asia seems to  
have been used by some large organizations to describe things like

foo.intranet.asia
foo.vpn.asia

that are now turning into queries
