If you look at the maps of infections there are some areas, frequented by Chinese tourists, that are not reporting data.
Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia - none have been reporting data because they know that a panic will wreck their tourist industry. The Thai government even admitted that publicly - that they would not release data on the disease.
The "good" news is that Coronaviruses are not great survivors in tropical climates, so when summer comes, the infections will abate - BUT we are still 8 weeks away from warmer weather (with a doubling every 5 days).
The bad news is that if governments do not also stop flights out of Southeast Asia, then there will be a secondary wave of Coronavirus, and it will likely hit the Southern Hemisphere over the summer, and then the entire Northern Hemisphere this winter.
