There's no way to compare them because the data sets are for different time periods. The losses are for 2001-2020 but the gains are only for 2001-2012.
I don't know about specific regions, but forests worldwide are doing fine. In 1990, the world had 4.13 billion hectares of forest. In 2017 that number was 4 billion hectares.[1] That's not bad considering world population increased 40% in that time.
