What I need:
- Reliable service
- Low latency to Asia (Singapore)
- RAM: 128MB-256MB
- HDD: 10GB - 20GB SSD
- BW: 50GB - 100GB (1Gbps port)
What I have: $10-$15/year. I know this is quite low budget but I'm still hoping...
Thanks a ton in advance!

Well, this is impossible. Especially with KVM.
Hmm I don't think this is something possible.
It is possible. Its just that you get crap service or scammed.
Why KVM? Do you have to or do you prefer?
@erkin I have issues installing & running elasticsearch on OpenVZ VPS
You can find either reliable or cheap service, but not both.
Sure it's possible and with a pretty good provider, too: (1) set up an account with DigitalOcean... (2) fund it with $10... (3) find and apply a $50 DO credit coupon - they give them out from time to time on different occasions and promotions... (4) create an $5/month 512MB KVM droplet in their SINGAPORE location, so latency will be probably <1ms ) and there you go... $10/year for a 512MB SSD KVM... well, for the first year, anyways
@aglodek I haven't ever seen any $50 DO coupons before...
They gave them out pretty freely end of last year or beginning of this year. I have one account with DO funded with $5 plus $50 coupon, total $55. I forgot I had it, so a couple of weeks ago I Googled for DO coupons and came across another $50 coupon, but could not apply it because the coupon was only valid for attendees of some conference or trade show. DO asked me to send them a snapshot of my attendee badge. This shows they still give them out on occasion.
Oh, you're lucky. Anyway, i'm quite unlike that trick
I still believe there will be someone stand out and make my request possible...
