Don't know if there was one at APNIC.  (LACNIC and AFRINIC weren't in 
place then.)

Five and a half years ago.  There were a series of pitches to the 
RIRs to take the role of KSK monitors.  They said "no thanks, we are 
IP numbers, not Domain Names."  Something about separation of duties, 
not wanting to be tied to the ICANN role, etc.
