(Note that to FIFA, leagues are either Pro or amatuer no such thing as semi-pro)
Interesting, I didn't know there was no grey area.
Are we then the only country which declares a league amateur even though players are getting paid?
I'd imagine there are tons more - here's a list of countries with professional leagues and countries without. I'd say every country in Europe has paid players in their top leagues, as well as most in Asia, Africa and North America.
Interesting to note that Fiji plans to have a fully professional league by 2020.
