So it seems SE Asia has activist Government policy (Keynesian approach). This might seem contradictory to the definition of capitalism but it's just a guiding hand to the economy provided by the government. The ultimate aim is to not increase government presence (like socialists or communists maybe) but to increase Real GDP. So it seems my number 4 above might have to changed a bit. The government should help in the privatisation process along with actively stimulating the economy by the methods defined above. And I was thinking about this earlier and it seems the situation of Congo slightly resembles the Great depression Era of the US (late 1920's to the 30's) when Real GDP of the US actually went down. Maybe researching this era about what the government did to get out of this state will help you. I know WW II helped the general economy but look at what they did after the war. And you are welcome!!
