I think it should be 3 categories of asian instead of 2 categories.
Northeast Asian: Northern Chinese/Korean/Japanese/Mongolian
appearance: single eyes lid, long small nose,small lip,straight hair, mostly born light skined and hard to get tan.
Indo-Chinese: Southern Chinese/Lao/Thai/Vietnamese/Burmese/Singaporean
appearance: could be both single or double eyes lid, medium nose,medium lip,straight hair, born light skined but easy to get tan.
Southeast Asian: Indonesian/Malaysian/Filipino/Cambodian.
appearance: Double eyes lid, big flat nose,big lip, curry hair, mostly born dark skined.
Location: The western periphery of Terra Australis

Firstly many Mongolians, Koreans, Japanese can easily tan. Most Asians, no matter how white they appear, seem to be able to tan.
Most Austronesians actually have straight or wavy hair. It's the negritos who they mostly displaced who have the curly hair.
I suppose it's about how you slice and dice it. I'd say the 'Indo-Chinese' as you say are generally in between the more northern Asian type like Mongolians, Koreans, Yakuts, Tibetans - and the Southern Mongoloids, the Austronesians.etc.
