What do you mean by "may NOT be globally routable" ? This would be due to
the address aggregation on the the 1st Tier ISP ? Would this be a problem
even if I'm connected to a 1st Tier ISP rather than a lower Tier ISP ?

Without a address allocation, how could the multi-home be done ? Through
use/advertising of Default/static routes ? Could I multihome a network
across different countries or different geographical region ?
How could I ensure that the traffic takes the nearest route to the network
and the data traffic from the network takes the nearest gateway out to the
destination on the internet ? What is the potential problem with this ?
Thanks.
