ICANN has closed its office in Australia, according to a few (so far officially unconfirmed) reports we’ve received today.

Multiple sources also tell DI that all ICANN staff working at the Sydney office were let go over the Christmas period.

However is the CEO should be working at the head office, what a waste of money that is.

I don't see the need for them to be in Australia. Don't auDA regulate domains in Australia? Why are they here Snoopy?
