KarLTzy Chinese Taipei isn't even listed in enc website, pakistan korea nepal china mongolia are already in top 16 so they won't also be present in these qualifiers. It leaves only 8 teams including india (Afghanistan, Bangladesh, india, Bhutan, Maldives, sri lanka, japan, hong kong). In this case how would qualifiers even happen with 8 teams??
Total countries itself in east Asia and south asia are 16 (5 are already qualified, north Korea won't play, macau & Taiwan aren't listed in ENC website)
