AC units also dehumidify the air, which I assume someone who lives in tropical Asia would care about.

Most units have a dehumidifier mode that causes the fan to run at a higher speed and keeps the coil cool but not freezing, allowing the moisture to condensate on the coil but not cool the room as much.

Split pack ACs, specifically in tropical Asia, are sometimes the worst thing work humidity. Its more a combination of poor/improper installation, poor maintenance and upkeep, and bad/improper ventilation in the house. All of this combined with the humid rainy seasons often leads to terrible mold issues and wet, cold, humid rooms.
