The monopoly position that they are in (being the registry and the

the registry XOR a registrar, and ICANN doing nothing save to wait for
the impending resolution of all concerned parties.
Well, the CICT has already asked for redelegation. ICANN is supposed to
take government requests very seriously. I think there's still hope for
reform. It can be better if we just get Disini out of there.
God bless!
