Regarding Sydney lab location, one of my friend registered for lab exam in
Sydney on August 9th received email from ccie support that his lab date will
be re-scheduled 2 months later. After my friend sent email to ccie support
to ask the cancellation reasons, he got reply explained that Sydney lab
location have no full time proctor at the moment
