> No - most Asian nations did not recognize the South Vietnam govt

I would not say "most". Thailand, Laos, SK, Philippines, Singapore did.

>US vetoed Vietnamese membership to the UN in 1975 - after losing the War.

Because the war was still ongoing, between North and South at that time. They merged in 1976 and US voted in favor of membership in 1977.
