We already know that socialism is going strong in China, Korea, and Cuba. But we (or at least I) don't hear that much about Vietnam and Laos.
How is it going over there? What is their trajectory towards becoming developed? How much progress have they made so far? Is the socialist ideology going strong there? Where can I keep up to date on these countries?
unlike china, cuba, and north korea vietnam has adopted the economic policy of letting foreign firms own and operate with little oversight or party control so I will say I consider it bad and partially why I notice an ever increasing number of young vietnamese abandoning communist ideology
