Burmese, don't know the specific names of ethnic groups in Burma though.

Burma or Myanmar because it is geographically the closest.

Singapore and Malaysia have many Indian migrants

Many Cambodians have a South Asian appearance:

They don't look South Asian but they look influenced by South Asians. Maybe they can pass as Northeast Indian.

Burmese definitely. second closest probably cambodians.

Indonesians and thais vary quite a bit from the results I've seen

Having a minor genetic influence like Burmese is less noticeable than having actual South Asians who live in that place like Singapore.

Most South Asians don't know that Southeast Asians have some South Asian ancestry. I wonder if Southeast Asians are generally aware of it.

I think they are aware but they dont like it. They would like more NE asian/chinese ancestry cause it looks more beautiful and exotic.
