China for Vietnam and Singapore; India for Indonesia, Burma, Cambodia, and Thailand; I don't know enough about Laos or Malaysia to be sure; I'm not sure I'd count the Philippines as Southeast Asia for these purposes.

Above all, though, Theravada Buddhism predominates or historically predominated in all but Vietnam and the Philippines.

Yeah, Vietnam being Mahayana is a huge part of why I said China for it--that, the writing system, and the type of wet-rice agriculture.

Also, I completely forgot Brunei existed when I made that post.
