How can palm oil not be widely used as it is OTL? What products can be a better replacement? How does this effects the economies of Southeast Asia? And is it possible?

One could hope that it would mean less deforestation and therefore less impact on local species (orangutans, Sumatran tigers, sun bears, great argus, etc.). It's entirely possible that there would be other reasons to destroy the Bornese and Sumatran rain forests, however.
Still, it's worth hoping.
