Perhaps something to the effect that ingress/egress filtering is a really good thing and as long as you are setting up your router/routes why not put in a filter. There could also be links to RFC2827 and sample config pages for various router types. Also a mention on the APNIC web site (on the whois page or whatever pages gets alot of traffic) would get at least some attention. One other sort of off-topic suggestion: does cisco training include this issue in their router courses?
