Which Asia country?
We already provide security.d.o in Japan and works well for me, so
please check which security.d.o mirror you're using.
$ nslookup security.debian.org
Server: 127.0.0.1
Address: 127.0.0.1#53
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: security.debian.org
Address: 133.242.99.74
$ nslookup 133.242.99.74
Server: 127.0.0.1
Address: 127.0.0.1#53

74.99.242.133.in-addr.arpa name = setoguchi.debian.org.
And it's not wise decision to give choice to whether to install
security updates - since it is "security" issue, not only problem
for its user but it affects other users, by compromised hosts attacks
to other users as a part of botnet.
