In her study China and Vietnam in 2005 Dr. Galina Murashova examines the character of relations between China and Vietnam from geopolitical, economical and ideological perspective. Geopolitically, Vietnam has to balance between the two giants - China and the US, trying to use their differences in South East Asia to its advantage. Economically speaking the relations between the two countries are designed by the new international strategy and the idea of a peaceful rise of China, which presupposes China's leadership in the region. In 2005 China left the USA behind and became the main trade partner of Vietnam with both countries still competing for foreign investments and foreign markets. As for the ideology, the two countries could be considered partners as both of them are governed by communist parties with Marxism-Leninism as basic ideology.

In her paper A.Smirnova analyses ODA as a mean of qualified contribution to foreign private capital expansion into Vietnamese economy. After 1992, more than 70% of ODA to Vietnam is committed by Western and Eastern donors. In contrast to ODA from socialist countries before 1993, new international donors of Vietnam (mainly Japan, France, Germany, Denmark, Switzerland, IBRD and ABD) emphasize the creation of most favourable conditions for private enterprises activities as well as the development of the local economy sectors which are of top priority for private companies, most of all the foreign ones. There is good reasons to believe that during some 10-13 years (especially in 2001-2005) evident preference was given to all kind of infrastructure development - industrial, transport, energy and social. The author inclined to believe that ODA flows played a positive role in Vietnam's socio-economic development in general. Undoubtedly, ODA flows played an exceptionally important role in foreign private capital advancement in Vietnam, increasing the competitiveness of both foreign companies and their local counterparts. But a number of 2005 events saw us the realization of ODA in Vietnam was severely complicated by some negative social phenomena, especially by corruption.

Grigory Suchkov in his paper entitled Indonesia's Armed Forces in the first year of S. B. Yudhoyono's Presidency states that one of the acute problems challenging the new President is the reform of the Armed Forces, which earlier had not been systematic. The process of disengagement of the Army from its autonomous character and leading political role in the society as well as its self-dependent business activity encounters serious difficulties. They result from conservative mode of thinking of the majority of the top officers and from scanty resources assigned in the budget on defense needs. It is also very important that during eight years after the fall of military-repressive regime, the civil institutions have failed to assume the proper position in the state, which gives an impetus to the image of the army as a pillar of Indonesian statehood.

In her paper L.Tsehanova analyses Theravada Buddhism is Myanmar's religion and about 89% of the population in Buddhist. There are also Christians (4%), Muslims (4%) and Hindus. Since December 2005 National Convention has been working out the new Constitution, which will secure freedom of religious worship. But as one could see in 2005 there were cases of disagreements between the authorities and the religious minorities. Religious persecution by the military regime poses a matter of grave concern among Christians and Muslims. Violation of religious freedom of non-Buddhists severs as a political instrument for the SPDC: the junta which strongly indentifies itself with Buddhism and has been preoccupied with building national unity has been trying to promote Buddhism over Christianity and Islam with the belief that once the religious minorities are converted to Buddhism they can be easily subjugated. Missionary activity poses a dual problem for the SPDC: the support given to the Buddhist monks secures power legitimating for the junta, but at the same time it pricks up religious minorities' ears.

The article Pivovarov D. Vietnam Engagement in UN activities describes the problems of Vietnam activities within the UN system in 2005. In 2005 Vietnam focused on various aspects of economic, political, humanitarian and ecological cooperation within the UN. With this comprehensive approach to the UN Vietnam tried to reach its goals working on the 60th anniversary session of the General Assembly and within the specialized bodies of the UN system. The article emphasizes the idea that the main task for Vietnam nowadays is to be elected as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council for 2008-2009. This overwhelming Vietnam determination targets a very clear but ambitions goal. Winning the UN Security Council seat reflected the core of Vietnam's activities in 2005. Evidently the whole process of preparation to win the chair will take some more time and the consent among regional nations on the issue. Vietnam has always underlined the unique importance of the UN not only in global but also in regional matters. The UN mechanism is deeply engaged in addressing South East Asia regional challenges, including security, economic, humanitarian, ecological issues particularly important for all South East Asian states. The UN mechanism also contributes to overcoming certain internal Vietnamese social-economic, humanitarian and ecological problems. By its nature the United Nations' system is devoted to reflect the interests of all its member-states and that strengthens the importance of Vietnam-UN ties.
