@AnAn___ I am not an expert on educational systems, but I would say that the Indian system has an advantage in that everyone learns English. The Vietnamese educational system is good in that something like 1/3rd or more of their graduates are STEM majors. I have little knowledge of the Thai educational system,at least not from the past 20 years! One thing I should add is that the Indian government has placed special emphasis on computers about 30 years ago. This, along with the ability to speak English is why we have so many Indian software engineers here in the US.

Indonesia is a lot like the Philippines. Both are archipelagos, with some high value(but not easily accessible) natural resources like gold, silver, etc. They both have many different national languages. The difference as I see it is that in Indonesia, the educational system is far behind the Philippines. Indonesia needs another Suharto(not to be confused with Sukarno-who was a communist of sorts) in my opinion. The Indonesians export coal to China and palm oil to Europe and the US.

@AnAn___ I said that the Indonesian education system is BEHIND the Filipino one, because they do not teach English. English is sort of the lingua franca in business and other ways as well.
