Joktan

Joktan, according to the Bible, was the second son of Eber. Genesis 10:30 says that his sons populated South Asia, east of Israel. Joktan had thirteen sons named Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, Obal, Abimael, Sheba, Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab.

According to this map, Joktan populated East Asia. However, most people do not believe Joktan and his sons settled in East Asia.
