Bengaluru, India

The new tax regime applies slab rates with a cess on top, and employees contribute 12% of basic pay to EPF. Rents have risen sharply around the tech corridors, but everyday costs remain low, so a senior salary converts into unusually high local purchasing power.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Progressive income tax tops out at 30%, and EPF takes 11% as a forced retirement saving alongside small SOCSO and EIS contributions. Rents are moderate for a regional capital, though car ownership and tolls are close to unavoidable outside the rail corridors.
