Human Rights | Burma | The law does not permit private ownership of land; it recognizes only different categories of land-use rights, many of which are not freely transferable. (references) |
Trade | Vietnam | Project finance has not taken off due to State Foreign Exchange controls, a absence of guarantees on return, inadequate loan security (no mortgaging of land-use rights, no step in rights, underdeveloped dispute resolution procedures), corruption and the fact that every negotiation is completely different from previous agreements.
