Anyone familiar with cloud service providers in South East Asia?

Question

How's the performance of AWS/Azure compared to Alibaba Cloud in South East Asia? Is one better than the other or are they relatively comparable?

Alibaba Cloud seems a bit user unfriendly. AWS/Azure/Google Cloud seems to be the preferred choice. Softlayer is pretty unpopular and only seems to have caught on because of marketing.

Huawei/Alibaba/etc has local peering, significantly better in general.
Softlayer APAC is generally kind of ass - decent to out of country targets but little domestic.
In SEA almost everything is country and ISP dependent.
