But the Chinese culture only influenced Vietnam.
I clearly stated that most of the Southeast Asian countries use the Indian script and not all.
But countries like Indonesia and Malaysia used the Indian script in the past but gave it up after Indonesia
was conquered by the Dutch.
Southeast Asia with exception of Vietnam was barely influenced by Chinese culture. Most of the alphabets of Southeast Asian
countries are derived from the south Indian Pallava Dynasty. The medieval architecture of Southeast Asia was heavily influenced by the architecture of the Gupta, Pala and...
