Penang And KL In The Top Ten Liveable Cities
An annual survey carried out by Employment Conditions Abroad Limited, ranks the 254 cities in terms of ‘liveability’. (?) This was picked up by some of the local papers (here).
This company is “a human resource consultant agency, is based on weather, air quality, infrastructure, health services, housing, security and politics. ”
Anyway, the top ten is like this:
1. Singapore
2. Kobe
3. Tokyo and Osaka tied in third position.
5. Hong Kong
6. Macao
7. Taipei
8. Bangkok
9. Kuala Lumpur
10. Penang
Very subjective if you ask me, but anyway, lots of people will disagree i suppose.
The non-liveable cities in Asia are Karachi, Pyongyang, Islamabad, Dhaka and Dili.
