Malaysia is ranked the best country in Asia for retirement. American travel consultant, International Living, in its publication "The 2017 Annual Global Retirement Index," gave Malaysia a score of 87 out of 100 for its quality of life for retirees. The country is praised for its clean and modern environment. Malaysian cities also boast excellent public transportation and a friendly, multicultural society.
Globally, Malaysia ranks fifth, with Mexico in first place at 90.9. The index is compiled from various assessment aspects, including rental costs, visa ease, cost of living, and entertainment options. Assessments also consider healthcare facilities, infrastructure, and climate. In Asia, the top retirement destinations are dominated by ASEAN countries. Unfortunately, Indonesia did not make the top five.
