If think general safety, quality, safe food, clean, easy to use English, good and very various food, then the cost of live in Malaysia is BEST value!

I have spent more than 10 years in Asia, and I still like Thailand very much. Bangkok and Pattaya is where I have lived. I stay right now in Pattaya. Rentals are very affordable in this moment due to the plandemic issues.
Hopefully Thailand will be more welcoming in the future for long term stays.
The last 6 years I lived in Mindanao, Philippines. An amazing place, with very friendly and easy visa policy. Arrive without any visa, and extend your stay up to 3 years as a tourist.

Bali is fantastic, and it has different climates, depending on where you settle. However, getting a long term visa there is not easy.

Malaysia is very good and affordable.

India is interesting but noisy and chaotic at times.

China is very expensive and people are quite impolite sorry to say, and there are almost no English speakers.

Common for all these places is that the authorities may be very tyrannical at times, just notice how they locked everything down with all kind of silly rules. This was terrible in the Philippines and I guess almost all over Asia, and beyond...

Bangkok outside city center for good Wi-Fi and a clean housekept condo without a pool 16000 baht per month. I just left there and I'm in Vietnam. Vietnam is about 20% to 30% cheaper 👌 I've been hopping between Vietnam and Thailand for the last 5 months think I know 👌

[vwchan]

Yup, Georgetown or Penang Island is perfect for me!!!! I will be splitting time between the San Francisco/Bay Area and Penang!!!! Sweet!!!!

Thanks for all the great effort in putting that list together! My choice is the magical city of Bangkok. I'd like to live in Bangna which is an area of Bangkok 20 minutes outside of Central Bangkok by freeway. It's cheaper there with everything you need even an IKEA yet close enough to go into the city anytime.

Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia capital)is the best city for expats, according to research by US-based language learning app Preply. focused on factors including affordability, internet connectivity, safety and how hard the local language is to learn. People moving to the Malaysian capital can get by on the equivalent of about $1, 091 a month, benefitting from low taxes and housing costs.

Bangladesh could be another great option for couples to retire for under $1000 per month . The cost of living is low, and the climate is warm and pleasant year-round. Longest white sand beach and great mountains. Food is cheap, delicious and people are very friendly. There are plenty of cultural attractions and activities, as well as excellent healthcare facilities. English is widely spoken, making it easy to get by in this vibrant country.
