Final answer:

Vietnam, led by a Communist government, has been stabilizing politically through moderation of urbanization problems and economic reforms. Thailand faces challenges due to religious division and extremism concerns, although it has potential for recovery if political stability is maintained.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stability of Vietnam and Thailand Governments

Regarding the government stability in Vietnam, the country has experienced significant political and economic changes over the past decades. After reunification post-Vietnam War, Vietnam has been governed by a Communist party, which has acted to moderate the problems resulting from rapid urbanization and economic changes. These measures and economic reforms have encouraged development and international trade, leading to a degree of political stability.

Thailand, on the other hand, has faced social tensions and challenges related to its religious diversity, notably the conflicts involving the Muslim minority in the south after 9/11. These religious division issues and concerns about Islamic extremism have put a strain on the government stability in Thailand. However, Thailand has the potential to recover economically, assuming political stability is maintained and serves to enhance investments.
