Are there any policies set by internet registries and/or transit providers today that prohibits organizations from 
using a Partially used IP Block allocated in one region say AP through APNIC to be comissioned and Propagated in 
another region such as EMEA serviced by RIPE?.

In some circumstances, deaggregation of your rir-assigned prefix might lead to partial reachability (some networks 
filter on rir minimum assignment sizes - not a problem in itself, but some unclever networks exist, that don't 
additionally take a default).

Whatever you announce, make sure it's irr registered too, for the networks who transit or peer with you, who 
automatically build pfx filters.

Happy weekend,
