TheAppletons Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 "Chiang Mai in the north of Thailand was named South-East Asia’s safest city and the 32nd safest among 416 cities across the world. According to the Numbeo website, Chiang Mai won 75.5 points for safety in South-East Asia, followed by Davao in the Philippines (72.4) and Singapore (70.8). United Arab Emirates capital Abu Dhabi was named the safest city in the world with 88.8 points, followed by Qatar capital Doha (85.5) and Taiwanese capital Taipei (84.9)." To be clear, the ranking (as noted) was conducted by Numbeo and the criteria were "safely walking alone in daylight" and "safely walking alone at night". (Ranking might be different if traffic safety - or breathing particulate matter safety - had been added.) https://www.thestar.com.my/aseanplus/aseanplus-news/2023/01/30/chiang-mai-beats-spore-as-safest-city-in-region 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KhunLA Posted January 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2023 As long as you don't live there during 6 months of smog season. That's got to knock a few years off life expectancy. The silent slow killer you don't see ... ... actually you can see. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
