The maps I’ve found so far haven’t borne that out — there’s been periods when the gaps narrowed, but the archipelago has always been isolated.

This map shows a connection between Greater Sulu and Borneo
Notice the small gap in this reconstruction between Greater Palawan and Borneo during the Older Dryas Period, which if memory serves was a time of falling sea levels circa 14,000 years ago which makes it positively modern compared to 700,000 ya
During the time show on the above maps, it would have been easy to cross. Anyway, I think you'd have to look at some specialized academic sea level maps to find anything prior to 20,000 ya.
So my original assertion could be wrong; there's no telling apparently. There does not seem to be much on sea levels during the start of the Paleolithic Age in Asia or anywhere else I could find. If it exists, it is not published yet.
At 14,00,000 ya that area does not look to have emerged from the main land masses FWIW.
