I believe the amount of censorship Animax Asia is applied in Vietnam is the same as every other SEA countries since Animax is broadcast from Singapore, and the use of censorship is decided by the Singaporean government (a complete list of anime shown on the channel can be mentioned in the following ). Gotta quote from Reddit (funny how most anime fans are tolerated by the society since it's used as a hobby there):

All of the events above all created a huge backlash in the anime community. I wouldn't complain though, our traditions about these things are very strict compared to other countries.
 * A TV channel got coverage on a national newspaper here for dubbing and showing Oreimo (that channel is supposed to be a children's channel)
 * One (or two?) anime conventions got mentioned on a national TV channel because somebody cosplayed lewdly (Inori from Guilty Crown if I remembered correctly) and because of some inappropriate dakimakuras that were sold there.
 * Some online anime/manga websites were forced to close because of the inappropriate content there. In the middle of the event, the owner of probably the biggest and most-active anime forum in Vietnam decided to close down the website himself, citing the closure of previous websites and his fear of having to pay fines (which means a lot of money).
 * On one occasion, an otaku magazine wanted to bundle a Yui (Angel Beats!) poster with the magazine, but then the artist had to fix it so that it didn't appear 'lewd' (the original is also pretty lewd in my opinion). Some manga also have to do this to comply with this law.

On the positive side, the Vietnamese government slowly started approving inappropriate content in movies and accepted the showing of nudity in music videos, so there's at least hope. On the other hand, there's a kids channel called BiBi that airs some anime (it did air the above mentioned Oreimo) and the same applies for HTV3. I did hear they are airing Sword Art Online.
