It's seem they are only talking about aboriginal.
The aboriginal of most of the area of mainland SEA(Vietnam/Thailand/Laos) are Mon-Khmer people(pure unmixed Vietnamese/Khmer/Suy/Mon). Mon-Khmer people have dark skin just like people of insular Southeast East such as Filipino/Indonesian/Malaysian(Austronesian). But both people have different facial construction.
The Tai/Dai ethnic(ture Lao/Thai) that migrate from South-western China(
Do not call them Chinese, just call them Dai/Tai) in 13th century whom are mainly populated as majority of in Laos and Thailand population today doesn't seem to be count on this map except the area of Northern Laos,Northern Thailand and South-Western China(which seem like the Tai/Dai ethnic used to populated in those area at first place before the migrate to the South).
Kind of like the same case that they didn't account European-Australian(who are majority of Australian today) into the map, but instead they account Australian aboriginal instead.
Based on the map...
1.All Northeast Asian(Japanese/Northern Chinese/Middle Chinese/Korean/ other Northern east Asian) are all under 12-14.
2.Mainland Southeast Asian
1/2 of the area of Laos are under 15-17
1/3 of the area of Thailand are under 15-17
1/4 of the area of Vietnam(above Hainan island)are under 15-17.
3.Majority of Maritime Southeast Asian(Filipino/Indonesian/Malaysian) are under 18-20.
4.Cambodia,some people of maritime SEA, area of Vietnam/Thailand/Laos that close to Cambodia are under 21-23
