The cables under the sea in Asia don't go direct so the latency from Sydney to HK can be as high as 350ms, where as the latency to the west coast of the US is usually around 200ms.
what about south America? the server is on brazil, so maybe it is more straight line?
as for Australian server per se, I find it hard. The reason is because it is expensive to get a server if only a few people are in Australia and not many on the area subscribe. From the stats only a few players are located there.
