Summary

 - Philippines redefined AH26 and added some more routes (see below)
 - Sri Lanka amended AH43

Actions
 - when drafting Philippines, make sure they use the new routes

• AH26: Olongapo City – Dinalupihan City – Clark – Tarlac City – Urdaneta City – San Fernando City – Vigan City – Laoag City – Tuguegarao City – Metropolitan Manila – Legazpi City – Matnog Port – ferry – Allen Port – Calbayog City – Tacloban City (– Ormoc Port – ferry – Cebu Port) – Sogod (San Ricardo Port – ferry – Lipata Port – Surigao City – Butuan City – Davao City (– Malaybalay City – Cagayan de Oro City) – General Santos City – Cotabato City – Tukuran – Zamboanga City
• AH27: Legazpi City – Pilar Port – ferry – Aroroy Port – Masbate City – Cawayan Port – ferry – Bogo Port – Cebu City (– Lapu-Lapu City) – Cebu Port – ferry – Tubigon Port (– Panglao) – Carmen – Jagna Port – ferry – Balbagon Port – Mambajao – Benoni Port – ferry – Balingoan Port (– Butuan City) – Cagayan de Oro City – Laguindingan – Iligan City – Ozamiz City – Oroquieta City – Dapitan City
• AH28: Calamba City – Batangas Port – ferry – Calapan Port – Roxas Port – ferry – Caticlan Port – Kalibo – Passi City – Pototan (–Iloilo City) – Dumangas Port – ferry – Bacolod City Port (– San Carlos City Port – ferry – Toledo Port – Cebu City) – Kabankalan City – Dumaguete Port – ferry – Dapitan Port – Dipolog City – Zamboanga City
• AH29: Coron – ferry – El Nido – Puerto Princesa City – Buliluyan Port

 - implement Sri Lanka change to AH43
before: Tallaimannar – Anuradhapura – Dambulla – Kurunegala (– Kandy) – Kadawaththa – Pinnaduwa – Matara
after: Tallaimannar – Anuradhapura – Dambulla – Kurunegala (– Kandy) – Kadawatha (– Colombo) – Kottawa – Galle – Matara – Hambantota
Kadawaththa - Kadawatha looks to be fixing a typo. Kottawa on route already. Pinnaduwa is the expressway exit for Galle, presumably changed to get the actual city on the description. Extend route to Hambantota. Check Colombo spur (Kadawatha and Kottawa are suburbs already - the E4/E2 junction and the E2/E1 junction).

Looks like LKA AH43 has no changes from what we already have, but the spur from Kadawatha to Colombo along A1 needs to be added.
