Now that's a xenophobic statement. Shame on you.


it's a scientific conclusion, it's not a political statement
It's not my conclusion, it's based on facts and figures

No it isn't. Or you read the bible like devil.

do I ?

Believing in gods in general
is not only dangerous but all insane as well.

why do you think I do ?

Can you expand on this a bit? What are the limitations, presumably a
sponsor organization is necessary? The cost, and availability of that
and a 1-year business visa? Also, does that carry geographic
limitations (can you get permitted in Shanghai and go to Ningbo or
Guangdong?

I don't.

I would like to live in a foreigner friendly, no racism to Europeans
land. Is that true of both Shanghai and Japan?

Also, how about Thailand? I was thinking of the north, such as Chiang
Mai, but not Bangkok. I checked out the foreign office advice, and it
mentions some crime like attacks and assaults, but doesn't specify
whereabouts in the country. Could I guess and hypothesise that it
could be more in the south of the country, rather than the north?

I personally suggest looking into Japan. Osaka, for example, has some
programs for businesses looking to come from abroad and set up
there. But if you don't need a license, go have a chat with the embassy
and see if anything can be done about getting a non-tourist visa. It's
difficult to do without an employer in Japan, but possible.

Reasons for Japan: you can be in a nice, rural place that isn't god
awful expensive but is also close enough to a city (Osaka, Kyoto,
Nagoya, Okayama, and any number of places outside Tokyo) to go there for
the odd weekend excursion or to pick up some of your favorite items from
back home. Only the most rural areas won't have broadband access. Lots
of obstacles, but if you can overcome them then I suggest looking into
it.

Not a good indea unless you have personal contacts and speak at least
some of the language.

Reasons:

Japan is extremely bureaucratic. Not easy to open a business for a
foreigner. Then it is very expensive: Just to rent a simple, low
standard flat, will cost you a fortune _before_ you even moved
in. Many landlords don't rent to foreigners anyway: There is wide
spread racism in Japan, which short term visitors often don't notice,
but once you speak the language it can become a nuisance.

True, there is broadband internet almost everywhere, but your business
must make good money to pay for the high living expenses in Japan.


again compared with Shanghai:
There are single-contact business centres, arranging all paperwork for you
to start a business.
for free or at nett cost.
low cost of living
a lot of highly educated people
foreigner friendly, no racism to Europeans
broadband network 6 EUR/month
work permit in 3 hours

but language is a barrier to communicate, not in business but in everyday
life
and watch out for corrupt landlords

Shanghai is definitely foreigner friendly
Japan, I don't know...

Also, how about Thailand? I was thinking of the north, such as Chiang
Mai, but not Bangkok. I checked out the foreign office advice, and it
mentions some crime like attacks and assaults, but doesn't specify
whereabouts in the country. Could I guess and hypothesise that it

Do you need highly educated and ambitius, hardworking and skilled people ?
If so, China, certainly Shanghai, has excess of it...
Education level in Chang Mai is not as high as in Shanghai.
(but probably sufficient for your business ..)

If education level is not an issue, consider Myanmar
extremely foreigner friendly,
Europeans are treated as kings there.
but (almost) no internet...

Nepal is a small country with multiple cultures, customs, religion but
harmony in religion and customes here is not any clashes in the name
of religion and custome expect ****ing political issues but tourists
feel quite comfort to say in Nepal i have met may english pepople who
are staying in Nepal for long time. One of friend has make up his mind
to stay in Nepal for some years. if you want some assistance from me
feel easy to write me. I know here is easy to run some small business
too.

I found Nepal quite enjoyable (for the most part). There might be
security concerns considering the political violence in the past few
years, but that happens in a lot of places.

The only thing I didn't like was the mob in Katmandu of Berkeley
fugitives who hadn't bathed in months and didn't seem like they
planned to for a few more months. Stay aware from the areas they
frequent and it's not a bad place.

AS you know beside the political issues Nepal is really nice place to
stay. some of the Englsih people are staying here mainly Kathmandu and
Pokhar with there business. One of my English friend called Peter also
want to stay years if he get business visa or working visa. Political
issues doesn't bother the tourist once you can come here and you can
check and get experience and analyse before make up your mind. and you
can also analyse market. you can make up your mind map which business
would get place in Nepal

The air in Kathmandu is extremely polluted (people on the streets for
instance burn plastic in the morning to heat themselves).

Hello.

I am from the UK, and wish to leave.

Could someone recommend a safe country anywhere in Asia for me to set
up a very small online business? I would love to be somewhere rural.

Thank you.

Japan
Korea
Hong Kong
Singapore
Malaysia
Indonesia
China
Thailand
India
Bangladesh
Bhutan
Sri Lanka


Another thing. The infra structure in many of these countries is probably
not good enough to support an on-line business, say less the rural area.


In some case that is true, and especially in rural areas. But major cities
in Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia are comparable in Telecomms standards to
the UK, and Singapore and Japan are probably better.

Safety is not a major issue in most places. But being able to set up your
business legally can be a serious headeache in most places.
Doing it by entering as a tourist may work for a while, though you will have
to leave every couple of months (typically), and eventually you will get
hassles.

My guess is that Malaysia is probably the best option in terms of internet
infrastructure in/near rural areas (maybe the Cameron Highlands area is
wired), more tolerant bureaucracy than many places and English is widely
spoken.

I assume you would be able to host your business remotely anyway, somewhere
there is good internet performance. You probably do not need to host it in
your rural location. I have found Australia the best place for low cost good
performance hosting.
Then you may not need much more than a good dial-up or moderate braodband
where you live/work.
