4. Malaysia

Moving away from the Americas, take a look at Malaysia. This southeast Asian country is on the Malay Peninsula south of Thailand.
It’s been colonized by several countries and is a vibrant mix of Malay, Chinese, Indian and European cultures. Because of its diversity, Malaysia is a very welcoming country.
It is considered fairly safe, many people speak English, and it is an affordable first world country. Health care is outstanding and costs about a tenth of the same procedure in the US.
