SEA is now too saturated and something may have to be done, to me they are 2 solution, play on SG serv and take out HKTW and MN and put them in another place for ping reason (Japan ? China ?), if we count the number of team qualified + structure that hasnt been qualified we are at 23, remove MN-HK-TW we drop to 18, 16 might be doable in that case.
Other solution would be to split SEA in 2 based on server, and that would make sense to go in APAC full "1 serv" = "1 T3" = "1 T2". Se we would have SEA-HK (HK-TW-PH-VN-MN), SEA-SG (SG-MY-ID-TH) but 32 team might be a little bit too mush, not impossible but doable, counting qualified team, structured team and potential academics team SEA-SG is at 15, and SEA-HK is at 12, so this isnt totally unrealistic.
A mid solution would be to make 3 group of 24, East (HK-TW-PH-MN), Malay (SG-MY-ID-Brunei-Timur), MainlandSEA (TH-VN-Cambodia-Myanmar-Laos), but kinda break the 16 standardisation
