So, no thoughts on what a Taoist-Sufi syncretism might look like?

That would be very interesting to see. The mystical character of Sufism can easily be syncretized with religions such as Taosim or esoteric Buddhism. You could see Laozi regarded as a Sufi saint and forms of Taoist meditation integrated into salat.

Indeed, that would be cool.

Of course, the idea isn't mine, I got it from someone else.
 
Just simply have the Spanish never came to the Philippines for another hundred years and there you can get a Islamized Philippines like in Indonesia and Malaysia with Malay as lingua franca.

China could be partly Islamized had the Mongols ruling the Yuan Dynasty converted to Islam.

India could be majority Muslim if the Mughals were aggressive of converting the Hindus to Islam.

Luzon was not muslim before the Spanish came and under a civil war because they prefer to be under Hindus, I think Luzon would end up as a Hindu refuge.
