Objectives of Retire-Asia.com

The first main objective of the Retire Asia site is to provide an easy to follow guide showing the positive as well as some of the negative aspects of living in a foreign country, particularly an Asian one, with the different way of life, beliefs, customs and laws; in other words the cultural differences.

Where other sites provide general facts and sometimes masses of information, but often from an impersonal or detached perspective, Retire Asia tries to be a little different, in that it offers not only useful background information, but where possible reflects personal experiences and real life situations.

There are many popular places in South or Southeast Asia where foreign residents choose to settle for one reason or another. We go into some detail regarding Laos and Vientiane the capital of the Lao PDR. To a lesser degree Thailand's second city Chiangmai and the islands of Bali (Indonesia) and Singapore. Other locations include the Philippines and Malaysia.

As you can see, even a Google search from Australia for 'retire on a low income' puts Retire-Asia.com at the top of the list!


Retire-Asia.com's second main objective is to make you aware of new opportunities for earning income, whether you live in South East Asia or not. With the internet it's possible to live and work virtually anywhere in the 'connected' world. Along with hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurs you can live in one country and have your income paid in another – or several. Become a global citizen and international businessman or woman. Get some ideas from the pages listed in our menu on the left of our pages. Stock market trading, Forex and online marketing with a website or using Google Adwords are just a few.

Retire-Asia.com also invites you to join the members' mailing list by leaving your details below. You will qualify immediately and be taken to our free downloads page with useful articles, tools and other resources. We will keep you informed of news and interesting income opportunities. Your information will be kept private and you can cancel your membership at any time by replying with a blank message. Read our Privacy Statement.

Retire Asia aims to provide an ever-expanding source of current and useful information about destinations, as well as opportunities for those planning to reside in Asia, working or retired, and to earn extra income. One of the advantages of the technological era we find ourselves in, is of course the internet itself. Access to it is available almost everywhere now, and new ways of earning money while living abroad, abound. But beware of "wolves in sheep's clothing", and read our article on scams and rip-offs. Not everything is what it appears to be, especially on the world wide web.

Another possibly new career in several locations is teaching English to the local people, both young and old. There is a growing need in many developing countries to learn English as a second language. In Lao for example, positions are available full- or part-time, some to those without a formal qualification or even previous teaching experience. The ability to read, write and speak English fluently, is a definite asset for all. See our Teaching pages on the menu or go here.

On a similar note about language, you will learn to adapt to the culture in your new country much and gain a deeper understanding of the local people if you can converse with them in their own language. Why not start learning before you move?

A relatively new area of interest for the private investor and speculator, and an additional potential source of income, are the forex and stock markets, through trading or product affiliation.
