According to this link, the top 10 retirement havens in the world are:
1. Ecuador
2. Panama
3. Mexico
4. Malaysia
5. Colombia
6. New Zealand
7. Nicaragua
8. Spain
9. Thailand
10. Honduras
Out of the 10 countries, I have only been to three of them, our neighbours Malaysia & Thailand, and the beautiful New Zealand.
For retirement, I am not so sure Malaysia is a good choice. The country's crime rate is high, especially in the wonderful JB. KL is not much better.
Thailand is a nice country, but if you live in the cities, especially Bangkok, then air pollution is a problem. Medical care is another. Language barrier is another factor for consideration.
New Zealand is the best of the lot, as far as I know. It has very beautiful natural environment, but then it also has natural disasters, earthquake is common.
For you, where is your ideal retirement country?
