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.

Doha, Qatar

No personal income tax is levied on salaries, and employers typically provide housing or an allowance on top of base pay. Everyday services and schooling are expensive, but net pay keeps almost all of the gross figure, which is why savings rates here can be unusually high.
