I saw these interesting charts from Index Mundi. Data until 2013 only but useful nonetheless. Source is US EIA. The medium-users in East Asia -- MY, TH and PH.
https://www.indexmundi.com/energy/?country=ph&product=coal&graph=imports
The medium users, TW and HK. VN is a small user but there was a huge uptick in importation starting 2005.
And the big coal users in East Asia -- China, Japan and S.Korea.
So claims like "East Asia coal use has declined" are not true. Asia needs cheap and stable electricity supply.
