So, it works fine here in Taiwan....

[egreshko at meimei ~]$ host whois.apnic.net
whois.apnic.net has address 202.12.29.220
whois.apnic.net has IPv6 address 2001:dc0:2001:11::220
[egreshko at meimei ~]$ ping whois.apnic.net
PING whois.apnic.net (202.12.29.220) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from whois.apnic.net (202.12.29.220): icmp_seq=1 ttl=240 time=224 ms

So, it is pingable.....

Can you ping it?
