Living in Sibu
Malaysia · tropical
Sibu is a compact city of roughly 165,000 people inland in Malaysia. The climate is tropical. It sits well off the usual tourist trail and is considered very safe. A typical month of living costs around $900. Healthcare is strong, and the internet is fast enough for full-time remote work. People come here for fishing, food and eating out, quiet days.
La sanità privata (5/5) è nettamente migliore di quella pubblica (2/5): metti in conto un’assicurazione. È uno dei posti dove vivere fuori rete è davvero praticabile, sia per legge sia per spazio. Il reddito prodotto all’estero in genere non viene tassato qui.
