Asian Official Development Assistance (ODA) is best studied in the 2005 Statistical Human Development Report (HDR) regarding 2003.  The Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) will need to begin to keep annual statistics on the subject of international development assistance because ODA is the means for achieving the goal of poverty alleviation.  Due to the large number of poor people South East Asia (SEA) will be reliant upon the foreign assistance of the EU and the USA.  The plan is to administrate $10 billion in new aid in 2006 to the least developed South East Asian Nations and to begin assistance to mainland China to accelerate development.  It is hoped to levy $15,651 million of assistance from South East Asian nations in 2006, up from $10,773 million in 2003.  In the Plan Aid column recipient nations are only administrated new aid and current accounts are expected to continue, donor nations are conservatively calculated for total assistance contribution.  In their planning nations should strive to donate 0.7% of the GDP if their per capita is comfortably above $20,000.
