This afternoon I received the datafiles for India/China from AND and
I've put up a preview here:

http://tile.openstreetmap.nl/indchi.html

You need to go to zoom level 9 and above to see the real stuff, but it
seems to have:
- Many many placenames, especially in India
- Lots of the major regional roads connecting the towns
And the real surprise: A reasonable map of Mumbai:

There are also lakes and some rivers.

For the china data there were some encoding issues, I'd appreciate if
someone checked that the accents are correct.

At the moment I'm looking for feedback, though we really need people
who know the area well to give us an idea of how good it is. And
should contact the existing mappers to ask them how they want this
handled. But other than that we're off to a good start I think.

Enjoy!
