Technically, everybody is from African descent, as homo sapiens originated there.

But if you are asking about whether they are direct descendants from Africans, the answer is not exactly. They are Australoids, not Negroids, and are descendants of the first wave of humans to leave Africa, and they followed the coastline heading east until they reached South East Asia, and then down to Australia. They left traces in India, too, which explains why many Indians in the south have dark skin.
