*** Malaysia on of the The Top Three Best Places to Retire Overseas Where the Health Care is Excellent ***

Health care can be expensive no matter what age you are but when you reach retirement, it is one thing that you don’t want to worry about. According to International Living’s Annual Retirement Index 2013, below are three of the best places to retire in the world for health care.

Malaysia tops the health care category.

Topping the list in the index’s health care category is Malaysia, which came third overall in the index. There are plenty of positive aspects to this country—from the low cost of living to the friendly people—but one of the best things about Malaysia is the health care. It is among the world’s best and most affordable.

Malaysia has a reputation for medical tourism and the country’s doctors are highly qualified. A dentist checkup can cost as little as $9, which includes a cleaning.

Prescriptions cost a fifth of what you would pay back home and the pharmacists are well-trained and informed. A visit to the doctor, a house call and a special consultation will all cost $16 each - Sources by Internationalliving.com

Eight years ago the Malaysian government unveiled a plan to turn barren land in Iskandar–a 30-minute drive from Singapore–into an internationally important metropolis. The tipping point has come in the past two years with the completion of projects such as the Legoland Malaysia theme park, the Iskandar Coastal Highway and Johor Premium Outlets. The buy-in of the Singapore government and investors from China and Australia, plus talk of building a rapid-transit link between Singapore and Johor by 2018, has also spurred momentum for Iskandar.

Some 65% of the investment committed to Iskandar has come from Malaysia. But even with the government’s recent measures to slow the property market–which hit foreign buyers the hardest–industry players and watchers believe that the medium- to long-term outlook for Iskandar remains just as bright.

No. 23 Jeffrey Cheah, who is building luxury homes along the Pendas River, expects Iskandar to drive his Sunway Group’s exponential growth over the next 15 to 20 years. Lim Kang Hoo, who debuted on the list at No. 19, has reportedly pushed back plans to take his Iskandar Waterfront Holdings public until later this year, due to the government’s cooling measures.

An early investor in Iskandar,
No. 39 Leong Hoy K*m, also made the list for the first time. His Mah Sing Group says it will launch its fifth township development in Iskandar in the second half of the year.

Veteran Singaporean investor Peter Lim's fortune got a $350 million boost after he transformed Kuala Lumpur-listed Rowsley into a real estate play in Malaysia's Iskandar region. He masterminded a reverse takeover of Rowsley that involved buying out a top architecture firm and acquiring 22 acres of land in Vantage Bay on which, in partnership with the Johor royal family, he's building a gated city that will include a medical complex. He now owns close to 50% of Rowsley whose market cap has surged seven-fold since that deal and where he's installed his nephew as the finance head. Lim also owns 70% of FASTrack Iskandar, a $1 billion motorsports venture that will have a 4.5 km Federation Internationale Automobile-certified race track to be completed by 2016. After an unsuccessful bid for the Liverpool football club in 2010, he recently offered to buy Spain's debt-laden Valencia soccer club for $480 million.
