2. North Korea: The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) is authoritarian and operates under a totalitarian regime led by the Kim dynasty, currently headed by Kim Jong-un. The country has strict control over media, limited political freedoms, and widespread human rights concerns.
3. Vietnam: Vietnam is ruled by the Communist Party of Vietnam, which operates under a one-party system. Although there have been economic reforms, political freedoms remain limited.
4. Laos: Laos is governed by the Lao People's Revolutionary Party (LPRP), which operates under a one-party system. The party maintains tight control over political power and suppresses dissenting voices.
5. Myanmar: Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) was under military rule for several decades until 2011. While the country has transitioned to a civilian government, the military still holds significant political power, and there are concerns regarding human rights and democratic processes.
6. Cambodia: Although Cambodia holds elections and has a multi-party system, the ruling party, the Cambodian People's Party (CPP), has been accused of suppressing political opposition and media freedom.
