In recent history South-East Asian countries bought nearly all of their cars from Japanese car makers. Chinese EVs are now taking them to the cleaners. South-East Asia is hugely focused on reducing air pollution. Obviously petrols and diesels are the cause, not the cure. Together with the Germans, Japanese car companies like Toyota, Nissan and Honda are trying to avoid extinction. For the same reason. They were all too stupid to shift to EVs.
