These are as far as I know all LIR's. Also the 'stats' files provided by
the RIR's don't contain any NIR information, but only allocations from
the RIR to the LIR.

KRNIC is the NIR for Korea, JPNIC is the NIR for Japan, the others don't
have the "NIR" idea. It looks that 2400:2000::/20 bypassed the NIR layer
btw.
