As a result, they handle Southeast Asian languages poorly, especially those written in non-Latin scripts, which standard BPE tokenizers break into very long token sequences.

Earlier systems first split the text into elementary discourse units (EDUs) with a separate segmenter and often depended on handcrafted features.
